Background

Shenhua Tianjin Coal Terminal is owned by national coal mining and energy company China Shenhua. Phase I of the terminal has an annual capacity of 45 million tonnes.[1]

A Phase II was under development in 2014 to handle 35 million tonnes of coal a year, for a total of 80 million tonnes of capacity at the terminal.[2][3] However, there has been no update on Phase II since 2014. Zhoushan Institute of Science and Technology Information published that Phase II of Tianjin Port completed the site selection process and plan to start construction in the second half of 2024. The terminal is expected to operate in three years.[4]

The terminal had seaborne coal sales of 31 million tonnes in 2013.[5]

In November 2020, China Shenhua offloaded 4 million tonnes at the Shenhua Tianjin port; extrapolated to twelve years, they would offload around 48 million tonnes per year (likely less, given that 4 million tonnes in one month was considered a record), suggesting that extra capacity (via Phase II) was likely not added.[6]
