Un brote de coronavirus en un importante puerto chino podría afectar el sistema mundial de transporte de mercancías

A fines de mayo pasado un brote de coronavirus entre los trabajadores de la terminal portuaria china de Yantian, en Shenzhen, agravó los retrasos en la cadena de suministro mundial, ya que las autoridades debieron cerrar las instalaciones por una semana. Este lunes, la mayor empresa naviera del mundo reconoció que el problema tardará varias semanas en resolverse.

“Las autoridades portuarias de Yantian han anunciado que la productividad aumentará gradualmente a medida que más trabajadores vuelvan a trabajar y se reabran más atracaderos”, dijo Maersk, que opera en 130 países y emplea a unas 80.000 personas.

Sin embargo, la congestión en esta instalación, operada por Hutchison Ports, con sede en Hong Kong, se extendió a otras terminales cercanas, como Nansha y ShekouLos rebrotes del coronavirus en Cantón -provocados principalmente por la variante Delta- de las últimas semanas han añadido presión sobre esos puertos.

Este hecho encendió las alarmas en el sector, puesto que puso en evidencia la vulnerabilidad del transporte marítimo internacional en caso de que se registren nuevos brotes en diferentes zonas portuarias. Según informa Financial Times, semanas después del brote registrado, la productividad del sector apenas se recuperó hasta un 70% de los niveles normales.

Lars Jensen, director ejecutivo de la consultora Vespucci Maritime, advirtió que se podrían registrar cierres más severos en caso de que el virus llegue a puertos más grandes, como el de Shanghai: “Las autoridades chinas están intentando tomar medidas enérgicas contra los brotes más pequeños. Sólo se necesitan unos pocos casos para cerrar grandes áreas. Podríamos ver impactos mucho mayores”.
