Worldwide, ocean supply chain stakeholders have been focusing on port congestion in Los Angeles and Long Beach. While its port congestion has improved recently, other major world ports are experiencing alarming levels of congestion.
The Port of Santos is the largest and one of the busiest container ports in Latin America, handling an annual container volume of 2.697 million TEUs. Images from the Port Insight Platform of SeaVantage show congestion at the Port of Santos, with an additional 139 vessels predicted to arrive at the port.
One of the reasons for this is the rising backlog of vessels waiting to load soybeans at its port. The harvest and transport of these soybeans have been hampered by poor weather conditions making it difficult to dry and transport soybeans.
The Port Insight Dashboard indicates a steady increase in terms of the number of vessels anchored, working, and number of ships from October 2021 through February 2022.

수출입 비즈니스와 관련이 있다면 ‘선박 추적’에 대해 들어보셨거나 직접 조회해 본 경험이 있으실 것입니다. 선박 위치 추적을 통해 내 화물 또는 고객의 화물이 지금 바다 위 어디쯤 있는지, 어느 경로로 가며, 어디에 경유하는지 등의 정보를 통해 결과적으로 화물이 언제 도착하는지 알기 원합니다. 또한, 해상 운송에서 빈번하게 발생하는 화물 지연과 변수 상황을 사전에 파악하고 물류계획에 차질이 없도록 대비하기 위함도 있을 것입니다.

2022 was another tumultuous year for the ocean shipping industry. The combination of numerous disruptions ranging from geopolitical conflicts, Covid-19 lockdowns, industrial labor strikes, inflationary pressures, and extreme weather events gravely impacted ports worldwide and global supply chains.
The Ukraine crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic impacted global supply chains significantly in 2022, highlighting the importance of being prepared for unexpected disruptions and the need for agility and flexibility in managing these challenges. The Russia/Ukraine war disrupted trade and transportation routes, resulting in delays and increased costs for businesses that rely on imports and exports between the two countries. The ports of Mariupol and Odesa, key transit points for goods in Ukraine were disrupted and had to shut down by the conflict.
Despite the fact that almost everyone has a GPS tracking device in their pocket, tracking the location and status of vessels and containers continue to be one of the top challenges facing freight forwarders in the shipping industry.
