The Jinhang 89 and Aokailong 68 docked at Berths 2 and 3, respectively, of Guangli port area at Dongying Port, operated by Shandong Port Group (SPG), on Nov 18, loaded with bauxite. Dongying Port recently began operating at full capacity.

SPG was founded on Aug 6, 2019 and has already integrated operations at seven ports around the Shandong province. This year has seen Dongying Port greatly benefit from SPG's efforts, loading and unloading 3.83 million tons of cargo. Despite challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the port saw increases in both cargo volume and profits.  

Dongying Port has provided strong logistical support for the development of Dongying city and its industries. Dongying Port has joined hands with the Dongying Party committee, Dongying government and local enterprises to more strongly link the port with the city and extend the city's economic reach to the neighboring cities of Zibo and Jinan. These measures will offer more convenient and efficient port services for the province's central economic circle revolving around the capital of Jinan, as well as bring about the integrated development of ports, industries, and cities.

Guangli Port area has made efforts to learn advanced management techniques and operation models from Qingdao Port, Rizhao Port and Yantai Port in order to strengthen its services. To date, Guangli Port has established business partnerships with over 70 local enterprises, greatly helping to provide commodities to hinterland industries.

Ports and cities are becoming increasingly interdependent. Dongying and SPG have set up a group focusing on port-industry-city integrated development after signing a strategic cooperative framework agreement on July 15. The two sides have established a long-term strategic partnership in areas including development strategy, port construction, port-industry-city integrated development as well as the construction of environmentally-friendly ports. SPG has doubled down on its efforts to support Dongying, with total investment reaching 18.6 billion yuan ($2.82 billion). As such, strong momentum has been injected into the integrated development of SPG and Dongying.

Going forward, Dongying Port is expected to serve the regional economy and integrate itself into the economic development of Dongying in a bid to further improve port functions. By leveraging its leading role in advancing regional economic development, industrial layout and comprehensive logistics, it will provide quality services for hinterland enterprises, thus turning itself into a new growth engine for industrial layout, the socioeconomic and green development of Dongying as well as regions along the Yellow River Delta region.
