Shanghai ports' river-sea transshipments take up 45.4pc of throughput

PORT of Shanghai recorded a river-sea intermodal transshipment volume of 15.27 million TEU last year, which grew at a much faster year-on-year rate of 9.6 per cent than the port's container throughput growth. 

These transshipments contributed to 45.4 per cent of Shanghai's throughput, 2.6 percentage points more than in 2012. This marks Shanghai's accomplishment of meeting its goal of raising the port's river-sea transshipment proportion to 45 per cent, a year ahead of schedule. 



Last year, Shanghai's box throughput increased 3.3 per cent to 33.61 million TEU. 



Shanghai's throughput was overtaken by neighbouring Ningbo-Zhoushan port and fell to the second place in 2012. It is also closely followed by Shenzhen in terms of container throughput growth. Shanghai has managed to stay as the largest container port, but is growing at a slower pace
