The workarounds eased the immediate challenge of bypassing disrupted chokepoints, but it created a second problem: container imbalances, with equipment increasingly displaced from optimal positions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The earlier phase wasn\u2019t really about efficiency so much as <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/logistics\/2026\/03\/05\/can-gulf-ports-outrun-geography\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">access<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 Gulf ports were being tested on whether they could be reached at all. But a hub only functions if it remains embedded in the network. Once carriers started repricing war risk and reconfiguring their service strings, the question shifted \u2014 it was no longer about how or where to move cargo, but whether the network would continue routing containers through the same ports in a normal flow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>Disruption is cascading across the network\u2026 <\/strong>\u201cCongestion in the Middle East has already shifted into key Asian transshipment hubs, including Singapore, Port Klang, and Tanjung Pelepas, which are also vital for feeding goods toward the US,\u201d Xeneta chief analyst Peter Sand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xeneta.com\/news\/xeneta-weekly-ocean-container-shipping-market-update-1.4.2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">explained<\/a>. As of last month, congestion at Port Klang stood at 50%, while Colombo stood at 45.5%, Tanjung Pelepas at 36.8%, and Singapore at 36%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>\u2026and it\u2019s playing out across full port rotations. <\/strong>By mid-March, services linking Gulf and Indian ports within the same rotation were already accumulating delays at multiple points along the string. \u201cI would say the imbalance should be across Indian gateways and key Asian transshipment hubs, where equipment cycles are expected to be distorted,\u201d Antonella Teodoro, senior transport consultant at MDS Transmodal, tells EnterpriseAM.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">India is where the strain becomes visible<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The strain is feeding into Indian ports: <\/strong>Shipments originally bound for Middle East markets are being pushed back into India under end of voyage <a href=\"https:\/\/geodis.com\/customer-advisory\/middle-east-situation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">arrangements<\/a> \u2014 forcing exporters to retrieve cargo from container freight station facilities rather than standard delivery channels. At the same time, containers from other origins bound for the Gulf are being discharged at Indian gateways instead \u2014 adding pressure at major terminals, including Nhava Sheva and Mundra.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The numbers speak for themselves: <\/strong> An estimated 15k-18k containers have been caught up in the spillover, with cargo flows through affected Indian ports facing delays of around three to five days as congestion builds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The bigger risk lies in equipment flows: <\/strong>India\u2019s export hubs heavily depend on empty containers returning from Middle East ports \u2014 a loop now under pressure as Gulf access remains restricted. By mid-April, a 40-45% shortfall in empty containers was projected across both port and inland depots.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The pressure doesn\u2019t stop at the quayside:<\/strong> \u201cExport-heavy markets with less control over equipment pools are most likely to feel it most \u2014 particularly those dependent on timely repositioning rather than large domestic container stocks. Smaller carriers and feeder operators are also more exposed, as they have less flexibility to absorb delays or reposition empty containers efficiently. Inland logistics chains are another pressure point, where delays in box availability are starting to ripple beyond the ports themselves,\u201d Teodoro argues.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">There\u2019s no snapback to normal<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>Ceasefire on paper? <\/strong>Hapag-Lloyd <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hapag-lloyd.com\/en\/services-information\/news\/2026\/03\/live-ticker-middle-east-faq.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a> on 8 April that it would continue avoiding Hormuz for the time being, while Maersk\u2019s updates still center on exceptional empty-return <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maersk.com\/news\/articles\/2026\/04\/16\/middle-east-operational-update-22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">measures<\/a> rather than a return to normal box circulation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>The reason is structural <\/strong>\u2014 carriers have already committed substantial costs into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xeneta.com\/news\/two-week-us-iran-ceasefire-not-enough-to-end-ocean-container-shipping-disruption-or-surging-freight-rates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">alternative<\/a> routings through Khor Fakkan, Sohar, and Jeddah. The conflict has displaced 250k TEUs of weekly container shipping capacity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Carriers are rewiring their networks<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>Short-term workarounds are giving way to deeper network changes: <\/strong>\u201cWe\u2019re seeing a transition from ad hoc solutions \u2014 feedering, land bridges, and temporary port swaps \u2014 to more structural adjustments. As the crisis persists, we will see more network recalibration, including adjusted port rotations, more deliberate use of transshipment hubs, and tighter equipment management strategies. That said, a degree of tactical flexibility remains: the system is far from being stable, and carriers are still balancing efficiency against resilience,\u201d Teodoro says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">The system is adapting \u2014 unevenly<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>Despite the disruption, volumes are finding new pathways.<\/strong> Maersk <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/maersk-says-gulf-land-bridge-routes-still-have-capacity-food-medicines-2026-03-26\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">maintained<\/a> in late March its land-bridge network through Jeddah, Salalah, Sohar, and Khor Fakkan was absorbing roughly the same 35k containers a week, broadly in line with pre-disruption Gulf flows, with Jeddah volumes up 40% since the conflict began.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>AD Ports has scaled that demand<\/strong>, with more than 54k TEUs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adportsgroup.com\/en\/news-and-media\/2026\/04\/16\/ad-ports-group-leverages-integrated-logistics-network-to-ensure-trade-resilience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">handled<\/a> this week through Fujairah Terminals and Khor Fakkan. It moved more than 22k containers by land, carried 18k TEUs across a feeder network backed by 24 vessels on eight services, and added more than 100 charter flights.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>Ws are beginning to rise: <\/strong>\u201cThe clearest beneficiaries are transshipment hubs and operators able to absorb additional relay volumes, particularly those with strong feeder connectivity and available capacity. Some ports in India and Southeast Asia can benefit from increased throughput linked to rerouted cargo. Feeder operators with flexible deployment can also see upside. More broadly, any corridor that offers reliability (even at higher cost) can gain share in the current environment,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Flexibility is coming at a cost<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>Alternative Gulf routes offered flexibility \u2014 but not balance. <\/strong>Ports outside Hormuz \u2014 such as Khor Fakkan and Fujairah \u2014 do not have the scale to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/dp-world-jebel-ali-port-fully-operational-inbound-vessel-traffic-reduced-2026-03-12\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">replace<\/a> key hubs such as Jebel Ali or Khalifa Port on their own, even as Red Sea hubs like Jeddah and Sokhna absorb spillover traffic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>On the ground, that imbalance is translating into cost and time.<\/strong> Containers are spending more time in intermediate nodes, and less time returning to export markets where they are needed. One timber <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/shipment-austrian-timber-its-tortuous-new-route-qatar-2026-04-15\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shipment<\/a> from Austria to Qatar that would normally have moved through Jebel Ali was instead diverted to Khor Fakkan, trucked to Abu Dhabi, and reloaded onto feeder vessels for Doha \u2014 adding about USD 3.6k per container and potentially as much as USD 5k \u2014 with delivery stretching out by another one to two months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Does North Africa have an opening?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin: 0;line-height: 1.15;text-align: left\"><strong>North African ports may be seeing incremental gains, but the center of gravity remains <\/strong><strong>farther east.<\/strong> \u201cWe can expect increased activity in parts of North Africa, but I wouldn\u2019t characterize it as a structural shift yet. The workaround remains largely concentrated along the Indian Subcontinent, with North African ports acting more as opportunistic or marginal relief valves rather than core redistribution hubs. That said, if disruption persists, their role could deepen, particularly where they offer proximity advantages and available capacity,\u201d Teodoro says.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding: 0;margin:
