The shipping platform

Location: The new port of Dongjiakou is being constructed on reclaimed land on the E side of the Dongjiakou peninsula, between Rizhao and Qingdao. General overview: Construction of the Dongjiakou Zone has commenced, 46nm SW of Qingdao Port. A total of 112 berths are planned in the new area, with a total handling capacity at 370,000,000t. The port will mainly engage in large bulk, liquid based chemicals and general cargo transport, as well as coal, ore and other dry bulk cargo. Liquid chemicals will be transferred from Qingdao Qianwan Zone to Dongjiakou, to gradually build the latter into a container focused zone. An LNG import terminal is also under construction for Sinopec, the first in the area.
