This interactive Container Vessel Dwell Time Dashboard analyzes November 2025 carrier-level performance across major global gateways, with an emphasis on Southern California (Port of Long Beach & Port of Los Angeles) and major transshipment hubs (Rotterdam, Antwerp, Shanghai, Busan, Ningbo, Singapore, Savannah). Using the dashboard’s dataset, we measure three operational KPIs, Avg. Waiting (hrs), Avg. Working (hrs) and Total Dwell (hrs = waiting + working),so terminal operators, 3PLs, ocean carriers, and shippers can benchmark performance, reduce demurrage risk, and plan yard/rail resources more effectively.
This report includes data from 10 major ports only. SeaVantage, however, maintains vessel dwell time data across all global container ports. To access the full dataset or request a customized report, please contact us directly.
Below are the top-line findings on port dwell times for 10 ports by carrier for November 2025.
1. Lowest Dwell Port: Busan (19.6 hrs)
2. Highest Dwell Port: Los Angeles (79.1 hrs)
3. Carrier with Highest Avg. Wait: Maersk A/S at Savannah (40.1 hrs)
4. Carrier with Highest Avg. Work: MSC at Long Beach (172.0 hrs)
5. Carrier with Highest Avg. Dwell: MSC at Long Beach (172.0 hrs)
6. Carrier with Lowest Avg. Dwell: Matson at Ningbo (8.4 hrs)
These figures are pulled directly from the dashboard’s November 2025 dataset and are displayed in the KPI panels and table. Use the port and carrier filters to replicate these results interactively.
Operations & planning: Terminal planning teams can forecast required berth hours and chassis availability by comparing carrier work-time profiles.
Carrier performance benchmarking: 3PLs and shippers can identify carriers with consistently high wait/working times to inform tender and routing decisions.
Commercial negotiations: Use port- and carrier-level evidence to negotiate priority berthing or compensation for prolonged dwell.
Network resilience: Supply chain planners can re-route or re-time sailings around high-dwell gateways to reduce delay risk.
Waiting (hrs) - time the vessel/container spent waiting outside or before active operations at the terminal (recorded per carrier/port).
Working (hrs) - active on-dock operations (stevedoring, container handling) recorded per carrier/port.
Total dwell (hrs) - sum of waiting + working (displayed on the dashboard and used for port averages).
1. Select a Port from the left filter to reveal carrier-level stacked bars (Avg. Waiting and Avg. Working).
2. Optionally select a Shipping Line to compare that carrier across all ports (table view).
3. Use the KPI cards to quickly identify: lowest/highest dwell ports, carrier with highest wait/work, and the single highest/lowest dwell instances.
