Sino-russian trade


The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has lasted for a long time, and the continuous conflict and instability have brought continuous negative effects on the Russian market and economy. In the face of unfriendly blockade and sanctions by many Western countries, Russia has turned eastward, and economic exchanges and trade with China have become more frequent and close. With the continuous meetings between China and Russia, the two countries not only give strong policy support for trade exchanges and logistics transportation between each other, but also accelerate the speed and intensity of policy implementation, and promote the better and faster development of Sino-Russian international trade and international logistics in multiple aspects.

Due to Russia's small population and its special political status in the world, international logistics issues, especially the international logistics of chemicals and dangerous goods, have always been a stumbling block between Chinese and Russian importers and exporters. After the conflict, almost all Western shipping companies suspended logistics services to Russia, and many countries gradually banned transshipments to Russia through their ports. For a time, dangerous goods imported into Russia can only pass through Vladivostok and Vostochny in the Far East as ports of entry, using the east-west Russian railway as the main channel for cargo transport. However, subject to the limited operating capacity of the Far East port terminal, the outdated and backward facilities of the Russian railway, and the transportation time of far exceeding the expected voyage, all of which make the international logistics of dangerous goods in Russia seriously hampered. How to find a professional and excellent freight forwarder for dangerous goods from China to Russia and effectively solve the dilemma of international logistics of dangerous goods between China and Russia has become a common pain point and difficulty for traders of the two countries.

Sungreen Logistics, as a professional dangerous goods international logistics service provider who has been deeply engaged in the Sino-Russian dangerous goods transport market for many years, hereby gives you a detailed review of the status quo and methods of dangerous goods transport from China to Russia.

At present, according to the relevant regulations of the National Railway Administration, China's railway department has strict requirements and restrictions on the loading and transportation of dangerous goods, and most of the dangerous goods can not be transported through the railway in China. However, Sungreen Logistics Xiaobian can take you to understand the main railway ports from China to Russia, Mongolia and five Central Asian countries in this article:

Alashankou Port, a border port between China and Kazakhstan, is located in Alashankou City, Bortala Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, and is the bridgehead of the western Chinese section of the second Eurasian Land Bridge. It includes railway ports and road ports, in addition to crude oil pipeline transport, is a national Class A port, docking with the port of Dosco.

Khorgos Port, on the border of China and Kazakhstan, is an important port of trade between Xinjiang and Central Asian countries, docking Atenkoli.

Manzhouli Port is the largest railway port with the highest passing capacity in China. There are 24 wide rails and 27 standard rails. There are more than 90 replacement lines and special lines at port stations. The wide-gauge train will make one stop, docking at the rear Baikalsk port.

Erenhot Port, Erenhot city is located in the north of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, and Mongolia's largest port city Zamenud city adjacent.

Therefore, at present, the transportation of dangerous goods from China to Russia mainly includes three ways: dangerous goods road transportation, dangerous goods sea transportation and dangerous goods air transportation. Sungreen Logistics will give you a detailed introduction:

Analysis of advantages and disadvantages of dangerous goods transportation on road between China and Russia

The China-Russia land transport route is mainly road transport through China's Heilongjiang Province and Russia's Far East region. The advantage of this line is that the transit time is relatively short and the route is flexible, which can quickly move goods from China to Russia. However, due to the weather, road conditions and distance from Moscow, St. Petersburg and other big cities are too far away and other factors, this line may be affected in winter, and the transportation time is longer. Motor transport is used more for short distances between the northeast and the Far East. In addition to the direct automobile transportation between China and Russia, more and more automobile transportation via Mongolia and Kazakhstan is also being transferred. In particular, Xinjiang through the Khorgos port direct to Russia the most motor transport. The main reason is that Xinjiang is relatively close to the economically developed and populous part of Europe, and the road conditions along the road are better. Mainland customers who need to transport time can choose this route.

However, dangerous goods road motor transport requires special dangerous goods qualified vehicles, equipped with professional dangerous goods vehicle drivers and escorts, transport costs are expensive, the cost is relatively high. It also requires the factory to provide a dangerous package certificate for land transportation, and it requires the factory to deliver the goods to the dangerous goods warehouse at the land transportation port in Northeast China, Inner Mongolia or Xinjiang. The cost and time of domestic dangerous goods bulk land transportation trailer are also relatively high.


02 Sino-Russian dangerous goods air transport

At present, there are EY and SU airlines that can transport dangerous goods from China to Russia by air. EY is transferred from PVG Shanghai Pudong Airport to Moscow SVO1 Airport via AUH ABU Dhabi International Airport, and SU is transferred from PVG Shanghai Pudong Airport to Moscow SVO2 Airport.


03 Dangerous goods shipping between China and Russia

At present, the shipping of dangerous goods from China to Russia is mainly divided into the eastbound route to the Russian Far East and the westbound route to the European part of Russia.

On the eastern route, the main ports of arrival are VLADIVOSTOK and VOSTOCHNY.

VLADIVOSTOK (Vladivostok), also known as Vladivostok, is the largest port in the Russian Far East, is also the basic port of the Russian Far East for the main transport of dangerous goods, and is also the eastern bridgehead of the Russian sea and rail transport. Vladivostok is located in Russia's primorsky krai, It is mainly divided into COMMERCIAL PORT VLADIVOSTOK COMMERCIAL PORT (VMTP), fishing PORT VLADIVOSTOK FISH PORT (VSFP) and Soros port VLADIVOSTOK SOLLERS PORT (SOLLERS).

At present, the shipping market in the operation of the Chinese port to the Russian Far East port, can receive dangerous goods shipping companies and routes as follows:

On the westbound route, the main ports of arrival are ST.PETERSBURG, MOSCOW, NOVOROSSIYSK.

Due to the sanctions of Western countries in Europe and the United States, traditional mainstream shipping companies have withdrawn from the Russian market. At present, the main Russian shippers who continue to operate dangerous goods on the China-Russia route in the market are traditional Russian Far East FESCO and CSTAR (former MAS Massa Shipping). And some NEW or small SHIPPING companies such as Sea Water OVP, Wadfi GFL, SAFETRANS, NEW Singapore Airlines NEW NEW SHIPPING, United Global UGL and so on.

At present to ST.PETERSBURG(St. Petersburg), the main shipping companies that can receive dangerous goods are the following:

FESCO operates direct routes on Mondays; OVP and SAFETRANS jointly operate direct routes on Monday; NNS operates direct routes on Mondays; CSTAR trans-shipment routes through Turkey;

At present to NOVOROSSIYSK (Novorossiysk), the main shipping companies that can receive dangerous goods are the following:

FESCO direct and transshipment routes; OVP/SAFETRANS joint direct and transshipment routes; CSTAR transit routes; AKKON transit routes from Taicang through Turkey, etc.;

Due to the one-sided sanctions against Russia by Western countries and the existing volume of international trade between China and Russia, the ships deployed by shipping companies operating China-Russia routes are mostly small and medium-sized ships of 2000-5000TEU, and the direct route is not a stable weekly service, but mostly an alternate service of transfer plus direct service, so as to control shipping capacity and costs. Therefore, the route of Russia, especially the route of Chinese exports to Russia, will often be adjusted according to the international political situation and shipping market routes.

In addition, dangerous goods from ST.PETERSBURG(St. Petersburg), NOVOROSSIYSK (Novorossiysk), MOSCOW(Moscow) and other cities can also be transported by sea and rail through the Far Eastern port of VLADIVOSTOK (Vladivostok). However, this kind of sea-rail combined transport should fully consider the waiting time in Vladivostok to line up on the railway, as well as the strict reinforcement requirements of Russian railways.
