In 2024Q4, the UK was the only major Northern European container port country to see an improvement in its LSCI, rising in the global rankings from 10th to 9th place. The Netherlands experienced the largest decline, mainly due to fewer services and reduced scheduled capacity.

China leads the global shipbuilding market, accounting for 70% of the total number of containerships on order. South Korea and Japan follow as the next largest contributors. #shipping #maritime

Ships from South Korea, China, and Japan dominate services calling at US ports. Together, these three countries account for 85% of total ships. Other countries play a smaller role, each contributing less than 4% of the total fleet. #USA #ports #shipping

The restructuring of the global container shipping market has led to the switch of Gemini and MSC services from Felixstowe to London Gateway, with knock-on impacts on rail services between both ports and their hinterlands. #shipping #maritime #alliances

The UK’s largest trading area is Europe & Med, mostly dominated by shortsea trades. In deep-sea markets, the principal trading partner is the Far East followed by America. Tariff increases on China could divert its goods elsewhere, potentially increasing UK-Far East trade #tariff

A higher percentage of Far East exports to North America are consumer goods compared to elsewhere, implying this is where tariffs on China are most likely to have an impact. #trade #exports #tariffs #USA #China

Italian exporters depend more on the US than their counterparts in the rest of the EU and UK, as Italy tops the percentage share of exports in four broad commodities. Italy could therefore be most exposed to any tariffs imposed on European exports. #tariffs #GlobalTrade

The return to the Red Sea route by all shipping lines has the potential to shake up the global shipping market: the move could release over 70 vessels and as much as one million TEU of capacity back into circulation, which would put downward pressure on freight rates #shipping

Capacity scheduled to be deployed on deepsea services calling at Red Sea ports drops below 1 mn TEU in 2024Q4. As the largest shipping lines increase their offers via the Cape of Good Hope, the Red Sea market has seen a notable diversification.

In 2024, the global shipping industry saw a significant increase in fleet capacity: in Nov 2024, over 4 mn TEU of capacity was added on deepsea services, outpacing capacity removed. This is over double the capacity change in the same month last year and nearly 4x that in Nov 2020
