TechFlow News, March 25: According to JINSHI Data, COSCO Shipping Container Lines recently issued a service notice stating that, effective immediately, it has resumed accepting new bookings for standard containers destined for Gulf countries in the Middle East—including the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and Iraq. However, resuming shipments does not mean COSCO’s container vessels will transit the Strait of Hormuz. Multiple COSCO sources confirmed that vessels will temporarily avoid the strait and instead follow a routing strategy similar to that previously adopted by CMA CGM: shipping containers by sea to ports on the eastern side of the strait—namely Sohar Port in Oman, Khor Fakkan Port and Fujairah Port in the UAE, and Jeddah Port in Saudi Arabia—before transferring them onward via land transport to their final destinations in these countries.
