Typhoon Dolphin is heading into a corridor that has not yet recovered from the last storm. Disruptions caused by Typhoon Bavi are still visible in Chinese port data. If Dolphin follows its projected track and forces port suspensions around Thursday, the immediate risks will be delayed discharges, deeper anchorage congestion, and tighter vessel supply across the Pacific Ocean.
The precise track and intensity may still change, but the projected conditions would be sufficient to disrupt navigation and port operation across the region. As a result, all vessel segment—dry bulkers, containerships, oil tankers, and gas carriers—could face potential disruptions. Container services could see congestion rise again as some Chinese ports close or scale back operations for safety reasons.
