Roughly 70.6 million tonnes of cargo moved across Longkou in 2013, a figure that places this artificial deep-water harbour on the Bohai Sea among northern China's busier bulk ports despite its 'Small' World Port Index rating. Located on the Shandong Peninsula in Yantai Prefecture, the port handles coal, bauxite and other minerals, grain, cement and liquefied chemicals as its core trades, alongside containers, breakbulk and Ro-Ro. Its 29 production berths include seven able to take vessels up to 100,000 DWT, supported by around 15,000 metres of quay. Road and rail link the terminals to Shandong's industrial hinterland, with operations run by the Longkou Port Group within the wider Yantai port system. For forwarders, Longkou suits mineral, grain and project shipments; mainline container services are better sourced through Qingdao or Yantai.
