Port congestion should ease as new vessel capacity comes in and Red Sea diversions become the norm – but “there will always be something” disrupting the market, warned Drewry’s Ports & Terminal Insight editor, Eleanor Hadland.
In Drewry’s monthly report, the maritime consultancy identified a sharp increase in congestion as a result of the Red Sea diversions, and Ms Hadland noted: “A lot of the congestion has been related to transhipment cargo.
“If I was a shipper, I’d be looking for a direct service – I would not be wanting a service that relied on transhipment,” she added.
“Efficient terminal operations require a fixed weekly vessel schedule,” she explained. “And the Red Sea crisis has reduced carriers’ ability to operate weekly sailings… The congestion we’ve seen in response to the Red Sea crisis has worsened due to blank sailings.
“Unlike Covid when the disruption impacted production and distribution, what we are seeing is normal flows of cargo to/from ports via road, rail and feeder. However, with high numbers of blank sailings it doesn’t take long for a backlog of cargo to build up in the yard.”
“Once the terminal yards get congested, you start to enter a vicious cycle where the congestion reduces productivity, which leads to further vessel delays. The situation is often magnified at transhipment terminals, due to rapid build-up of cargo when connections between mainline and feeder services are missed.”
"But Ms Hadland suggested the number of new vessels being delivered this year and next would provide ‘light at the end of the tunnel’. She said: “Once these vessels are deployed then the gaps in the mainline schedules caused by the longer Cape of Good Hope route will reduce, dwell times will start coming down towards normal levels and yard congestion will fall.”
“What happens if the ILA negotiations don’t succeed and we see strike action at US east and Gulf coast ports? There’s also risk of similar dock strikes in Germany and rail strikes in Canada. Plus, climate change is increasingly impacting the sector with floods and severe weather events.”
“There’s always going to be something,” she concluded.
In July, Valenciaport handled 461,121 containers, marking a 5.64% increase compared to the same month last year.
The port processed 6.75 million tons of goods in terms of weight, reflecting a 1.22% increase from July 2023.
For the year-to-date period ending July 31, Valenciaport has managed 3,169,288 TEUs, a 12.74% rise over the same period last year, translating to 47.61 million tons, up by 6.10%.
In addition, the data over the past twelve months shows that the port has handled 79.48 million tons of cargo and 5,155,084 TEUs, representing year-over-year increases of 5.56% and 8.62%, respectively. This highlights Valenciaport’s role as a crucial hub for international trade.
The Statistical Bulletin from the Port Authority of Valencia (APV) reveals a mixed performance for July, with decreases in bulk traffic (-27.53%), empty containers (-5.78%), and exports (-5.81%). However, these declines were offset by gains in containerized general cargo (+9.10%), import containers (+7.24%), and transit containers (+18.65%).
Furthermore, from January 1 to July 31, the port handled 354,376 vehicles under the cargo regime, a 9.07% decrease compared to the first seven months of the previous year. Export data for the year show significant growth in iron and steel (+5.82%) and non-metallic minerals (+23.67%).
Conversely, declines were noted in chemical products (-1.77%), construction materials (-1.75%), and other goods (-12.42%), including wood and cork, paper and pulp, machinery, tools, and spare parts.

Despite more than two million teu of newbuild container vessels joining the global fleet so far this year, the pool of open tonnage remains at a record low.
This presents a significant challenge to carrier ship managers looking to compensate for schedule delays and essential dry-docking by tapping into the charter market.
According to a survey by Alphaliner, there were only 67 vessels, with a capacity of 195,159 teu, recorded as commercially idle on 12 August, representing just 0.6% of the world’s 30m teu global fleet capacity.
Moreover, the idled units are heavily weighted towards the small sizes, with 41 of the 67 having capacity of less than 2,000 teu.
“The liner shipping peak season, intermittent congestion at some key ports and the ongoing diversions around Africa continue to put a strain on the supply of tonnage,” said Alphaliner.
It added that industrial action on the US east coast, the looming rail strike in Canada, as well as disruptions in the Gulf of Mexico and in India, could put even more strain on vessel supply as carriers look to secure additional ships to mitigate network delays.
Indeed, Maersk said last week that, since the outbreak of the Red Sea crisis, it had chartered some 172,000 teu of extra capacity “to mitigate the impact of the disruptions on our customers’ cargo flow”.
The Danish carrier and its peers have drained the charter market of tonnage to shore up their networks, and the idle fleet has been further depleted by the launch of ‘opportunist’ services taking advantage of inflated spot rates – a fashion seen during the post-pandemic demand boom.
Around 500,000 teu of newbuild container vessels hit the water in June and July, with over 100,000 teu delivered this month so far. Deliveries this month include the 16,592 teu methanol-dual fuel powered Alexandra Maersk, the fifth in a series of 12 vessels ordered by the carrier in August 2021.
Notwithstanding the extra capacity required to service disrupted liner networks, the forthcoming break-up of the 2M Alliance, of Maersk and MSC, and the departure of Hapag-Lloyd from THE Alliance is weighing on the minds of carriers that do not want to lose market share as a consequence.
This will become critical during the upcoming slack season, when carriers are obliged to discount prices to fill allocations.
According to Alphaliner data, there is still around 1m teu of capacity scheduled to be delivered this year, with a further 2m teu due in 2025.
Meanwhile, carriers are in bullish mood after recording better-than-expected profits at the half-year stage, with for example Israeli carrier Zim saying it expected “even better results in the second half of 2024”.
As a result the cash-rich carriers are once again turning to Asian shipyards for newbuild slots, with confirmed orders this year already at more than 2m teu.
However, these orders, which are mainly concentrated at Chinese yards, will not be received by carriers until 2027 at the earliest.
Competition between government/landlord ports and Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) in India is heating up, with the latter making rapid inroads into the emerging market.
Adani Group’s flagship Mundra Port boosted its market share of Indian containerised trade to 34% last fiscal year (2023-24), from 31% year-over-year, according to exclusive data obtained by Container News. Mundra competes with Nhava Sheva Port for north-western cargo, which makes up the bulk of Indian box volumes.
To amplify the growth pace for Adani, Mundra has seen container volumes increase from 2.7 million TEUs in 2014-15 to 7.4 million TEUs in 2023-24, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12%.
On the other hand, Nhava Sheva Port (JNPT) has expanded volumes at a significantly slower rate -– from 4.5 million TEUs to 6.4 million TEUs, a CAGR of 4%, data shows.
That phenomenal growth for Mundra comes despite its high tariff rates. Mundra’s vessel and-container-related charges are substantially higher than those at the leading terminals in Nhava Sheva, according to anecdotal data.
According to local industry voices, greater efficiency and stronger hinterland cargo advantages are driving Mundra's growth journey.
Additionally, Adani’s strategic terminal partnerships with liner giants CMA CGM and MSC yields significant volume gains for Mundra. The port saw 1.7 million TEUs of transshipment cargo-handling in fiscal 2023-24.
Steady cargo shifts away from government ports could threaten volume targets for India’s older build-operate-transfer (BOT) terminal operators, who have concessions that mandate high royalty share obligations towards their landlord port entities.
“Clearly, the company’s business model of end-to-end service, strategic partnership with key customers, leveraging the network effect through its string of ports, and focus on operational efficiencies is yielding results,” said Ashwani Gupta, whole-time director and CEO at APSEZ in a recent statement.
He further said: “We continue to invest heavily in the business to drive growth, particularly in the logistics segment.”
Gupta went on to add: “Our newly launched trucking segment enables APSEZ to provide the last-mile connectivity solution to its customers. Our efforts towards sustainable business growth are well recognized in the top decile ESG rating from four global rating agencies.”
APSEZ is also betting high on its new container transhipment terminal at Vizhinjam Port in southern India. The terminal recently kicked off trial operations, ahead of its official launch shortly.
“Once we complete the automation and the Vessel Traffic Management System, Vizhinjam will be in a class of its own as one of the most technologically sophisticated transshipment ports in the world," APSEZ managing director Karan Adani noted.
"No other port in India - including our own highly advanced Mundra Port - has these technologies,” he added.
The Port of Los Angeles handled a record-breaking 939,600 TEUs in July, a 37% increase over the previous year.
According to the port's data, it was the best July in the LA port's 116-year history and the busiest month in more than two years.
Additionally, seven months into 2024, the Port of Los Angeles is 18% ahead of its 2023 pace.
“We’ve seen an influx of year-end holiday goods coming across our docks a bit earlier than usual to avoid any risk of delay later in the year,” said Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka. “These goods – think toys, electronics and clothing – are arriving at the same time as more typical back-to-school, fall fashion and Halloween merchandise. An early peak season has helped to boost volumes here in Los Angeles.”
July's loaded imports landed at 501,281 TEUs, a 38% spike compared to the previous year, while loaded exports came in at 114,889 TEUs, an increase of 4% compared to last year. The US port processed 323,431 empty containers, a 54% jump compared to 2023.
"It was the 14th consecutive month of year-over-year export gains in Los Angeles," noted the Port of Los Angeles in a statement.
Overall, the Port has moved 5,671,091 TEUs the first seven months of 2024, an 18% increase over the 2023 mark.
China-Europe rail freight volumes are continuing 2023’s upward trajectory, recording an 11% year on year bounce in the first six months of this year, with some 1.23m teu moved.
Data from China State Railway Group, published on government websites, shows more than 11,400 trains operated in the first half of 2024; with the most recent monthly figures suggesting little sign that this positive momentum is dwindling.
Indeed, July was the third consecutive month in which more than 1,700 trains made the journey between China and Europe, with 1,776 transporting some 185,000 teu.
Growth in Chinese rail freight volumes is partly attributable to the disruption in the Red Sea, with shippers eager to find routes around the chaos, but the government has also been rapidly developing rail services in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
With traditional China-Europe services through Russia hitting the buffers, Chinese operators have turned to Russia’s southern neighbours, with the number of routings through the likes of Kazakhstan growing.
And these efforts have borne fruit, with China Railway’s CR-Urumqi division having noted an 8.2% year-on-year bump in journeys made, hitting 7,746 in H1, with the operator stating it was “deepening cooperation” with Kazakh rail services. That “deepening” will include efforts to expand, optimise and reconstruct ports in both countries to better facilitate train transfers.
Average rates now being offered by Chinese forwarders on export services have surpassed $10,000 per teu, with some quotes at more than $12,000.
