GUANGHAI

Guanghai Port, located in Guanghai Town, Taishan City, Guangdong Province, China, is an important part of Jiangmen Port and an important port node along the coast of Guanghai Bay. Facing the South China Sea, it is located in the western coastal area of the the Pearl River Delta. Guanghai Bay is connected to the South China Sea to the south, and the port is connected to the open sea through the inner waterway of the bay. At the same time, it can use the developed road transportation network in the Pearl River Delta to connect Jiangmen, Taishan and surrounding industrial areas. Guanghai Town itself has a long history of ocean transportation and commerce, and Guanghai Bay, where the port is located, is an important coastal development area in the area. Relying on the water conditions of the bay area, Guanghai Port can balance regional cargo transportation, container transportation, and port related industrial services. Port facilities Guanghai Port includes Guanghai Operation Area and related dock berths around Guanghai Bay. According to public information, the first phase of the Guanghai operation area terminal has built two 5000 ton berths with a designed annual throughput capacity of about 750000 tons, including a container design capacity of about 38000 TEUs. The work area is located downstream of the Fenghuojiao Water Lock in Guanghai Bay, with a relatively open harbor basin water area. The 5000 ton berth can meet the berthing needs of regional bulk cargo and container ships, giving Guanghai Port a comprehensive transportation capacity that is different from general small local ports. The development of the port area is also linked to the overall development of port resources in Guanghai Bay, forming multiple docks and operational areas. Port transportation The transportation function of Guanghai Port is mainly focused on regional cargo transportation and container transportation, while also serving the loading, unloading, and transit of bulk and miscellaneous goods. Its port hinterland mainly covers the western areas of Taishan and Jiangmen, and can be further extended to other cities in the Pearl River Delta through a road network. For manufacturing and commercial enterprises, Guanghai Port can provide a water transportation node close to the industrial hinterland. Some goods suitable for sea transportation can be collected and distributed through ports, and then connected with road transportation to form a regional logistics model of water land intermodal transportation. Guanghai Bay Port Area The development of Guanghai Port is closely related to Guanghai Bay Port Area. Guanghai Bay is an important coastal port resource area in the western part of Jiangmen, and the planning and construction of the port area is combined with the industrial layout along the coast of Taishan. Guanghai Port is located in one of the core areas of Guanghai Bay, forming a regional port system together with surrounding islands and coastal ports. In addition to serving traditional cargo transportation, the port area also undertakes supporting functions for the development of port related industries. The port construction of Guanghai Bay can further utilize the coastal line and deep-water harbor resources of Taishan, and strengthen the transport links between the western region of Jiangmen and the coastal ports of the Pearl River Estuary and South China. Regional transportation Taishan City, where Guanghai Port is located, is located in the southwest of Jiangmen City, adjacent to the core area of the Pearl River Delta to the east and the western Guangdong region to the west. The port is connected to the surrounding industrial hinterland through the highway traffic network of Taishan and Jiangmen, and can form transport links with the the Pearl River Estuary and other ports in South China by means of coastal routes. Compared to large comprehensive ports such as Guangzhou Port and Shenzhen Port, the positioning of Guangzhou Port is more inclined towards regional ports and industrial service-oriented ports. Its main advantage lies in its proximity to the industrial hinterland of Taishan and the western part of Jiangmen, as well as its ability to transport containers and bulk cargo. Port attributes Guanghai Port has the attribute of a national first-class port and can play a role as a port node in regional foreign trade and international logistics system. The relevant port code information clearly marks the Guangzhou Port corresponding to CNGHI as a national first-class port. For international freight forwarders and import-export enterprises, CNGHI is the standard location code for Guangzhou Port in the international logistics system, which can be used for transportation documents, freight data, and port location identification. The relevant materials of national standards also determine the standard Roman spelling of "Guanghaigang" as Guanghaigang. port development The development focus of Guanghai Port is related to the overall development of Guanghai Bay and the utilization of port resources in the western part of Jiangmen. With the growth of regional industries and logistics demand, the container transportation, bulk cargo transportation, and port services functions of ports have further room for expansion. Overall, Guanghai Port (CNGHI) is a regional port with a first-class port attribute along the Taishan coast of Jiangmen, Guangdong. The port, relying on the coastal location of Guanghai Bay, has formed a 5000 ton berth and a certain container transportation capacity, mainly serving the western areas of Taishan and Jiangmen, and connecting the logistics network of the Pearl River Delta and the southern coast of China through water and road transportation.
