Linerlytica puts container capacity tied up in port congestion at a record 4.31m TEU this week, above the 4.0m TEU pandemic-era peak of 2022. As a share of fleet the figure is lower, 12.6% of 34.4m TEU against 15.7% of 25.3m TEU then, but there is no slack: just 55 of more than 5,400 trading ships are idle, 164,000 TEU or 0.5% of the fleet. Shanghai's anchorage alone accounts for over 1.5m TEU, with Mumbai showing the worst berth queue ratio.
