Shanghai Port achieved a record high single-day container throughput of 203,881 TEUs on Saturday, despite the impact of Typhoon Bavi which had disrupted operations for about four days earlier. The port's resilience and coordination capabilities were highlighted in response to the disruption, with Shanghai International Port (Group) adopting proactive measures to clear the backlog and restore terminal capacity.
The port's daily throughput remained stable at 172,000 TEUs during the recovery phase before setting the new record, demonstrating its strong operational resilience and resource allocation capabilities. The Shanghai 15th Five-Year Plan aims for the port to exceed 58 million TEUs annually by 2030, solidifying its role in China's domestic and international economic circulation and global shipping network.
