Logistics Hub Connecting China, Japan, and North America
The Galsa Bay Integrated Logistics & Resource Hub is a key logistics gateway in Northeast Asia, combining marine terminal, transshipment, and bunkering services with strategic metals and bulk resource transit. With a deep-sea port depth of -14m, it accommodates all types of vessels from MR/LR1 tankers to ultra-large VLCCs and Panamax/Capesize bulk carriers. A triple bunkering network of Ship-to-Ship(STS), Ship-to-Shore, and Shore-to-Barge guarantees an average waiting time of less than 4 hours. Additionally, it offers bonded storage, trading, and transshipment services for strategic metals like copper, aluminum, lithium, nickel, and rare earths, as well as bulk resources such as iron ore, coal, and grains, positioning itself as a resource hub in Northeast Asia.
