According to an exclusive update: at 5:00 p.m. today (June 22), the Shenzhen municipal government held a press conference to inform the public about the prevention and control of the "May 21" epidemic in Yantian, Shenzhen, and the resumption of production of Yantian international container terminal.

The West Port Area of Yantian Port will be fully unsealed and berthing operation will begin today!
Among them, the West Port Area of Yantian port, where the first confirmed case was found and the operation has been suspended for more than one month since May 21, has been fully unsealed and berthing operation has begun since today!
It is learned that the West operation area (West Port Area) of Yantian Port mainly berths medium-sized container ships with a capacity of 3000teu-6000teu, which is also the wharf operation site where the first confirmed case was found. It has been shut down for more than a month now!
▲ Yantian West Port Area
According to today's press conference notice, Yantian Port West operation area (West Port Area) will be fully unsealed and berthing operation will begin today!
The main port area of Yantian Port will be fully restored in two days, and the ship berthing will be gradually normalized!
According to the official information of today's press conference, the main port area of Yantian port is expected to be fully restored from June 24, two days later, and the ship berthing will be gradually normalized!
At that time, the yard density in Yantian international container terminal may further decline and the efficiency will steadily rise!
▲ Yantian port, the world's largest single container terminal
Yantian port is one of the busiest ports in the world. As one of the largest container terminals in the world, Yantian port is responsible for more than 1/3 of Guangdong's foreign trade import and export and 1/4 of China's trade with the United States. Last year, the container throughput of Shenzhen Yantian Port was nearly 50% more than that of Los Angeles, the busiest container port in the United States.
Therefore, the suspension of Yantian port caused by this epidemic has had a great impact on the global shipping logistics industry. The news disclosed by the Shenzhen government press conference today has also been long awaited by the industry!
It is expected that Shenzhen Yantian Port will be revived as soon as possible, which is crucial not only to South China, but also to the recovery of the global shipping logistics industry.
