Many Russian freight forwarders have opened new routes to connect Russian and Chinese ports

The Russian freight forwarders INTECO and swift transport group have both set up shift wheel companies to provide regular container transportation between Vostochny and Chinese ports.

In addition, Russian freight forwarder modul has also launched a route service to connect the big port of St Petersburg and India's largest port, Nhava Sheva.

It is reported that INTECO, a Russian freight forwarder, has opened two airline services connecting Russian Eastern Port and Chinese port through the establishment of its subsidiary INTECO lines.

The first route service ports include Dongfang port, Lianyungang port, Qingdao and Pusan port. The route service deploys a 489teu "Shun Yue 19" with a round-trip time of two weeks.

Another route connects Dongfang port and Ningbo port. The deployed ships are "Shun Yue 13" and "Shun Yue 18", which can carry 264 TEUs. In addition, if necessary, the route can also pick up goods at other ports in China.

INTECO lines said that it was planning to add more ships or hire larger ships in order to increase berthing at Shenzhen port and expand its business scope.

According to global ports of Russia, swift line, the wheel company of Russian freight forwarder swift transport, has opened a regular route service connecting Russia's Dongfang port with China's Tianjin port and Taicang port.

The new service deployed a multi-purpose ship "Sol Hong Kong" built in 2007, which can carry more than 650teu cargo, including 30 refrigerated containers. Two to three services are provided every month. The delivery time from Dongfang port to Tianjin port and Taicang port is 4 to 5 days.

In addition, modul, the third Russian freight forwarder, launched a container service connecting St. Petersburg port and India's largest port, Nhava Sheva. The service deployed a ship with a capacity of 1094teu and a delivery time of 25 days.

Alexander altshuller, chief executive officer of modul, said that he was pleased to launch the pilot project of direct container service between Russia and India and was greatly expanding its container fleet with a view to deploying these container ships on the announced routes and the routes planned to be launched later.

Albert likholet, CEO of global ports group, said: "in recent months, the shortage of container ship capacity in the Baltic Sea region has led to the interruption of international transportation in the northwest of Russia. We expect that new services from petroport to India will be in demand in terms of import and export."

According to alphaliner's data, the fleet capacity of the regular European internal liner service deployed in St. Petersburg has decreased from 96400teu in early February to 15700teu on June 1.
