Today it functions mainly as an energy and bulk port, shipping LNG for the offshore oil and gas sector along with zinc and lead concentrate, plus live cattle and fodder. Container traffic does occur but stays modest at roughly 9,000 TEU a year, against a terminal capacity near 200,000 TEU, so Darwin should not be read as a container hub.
