Bunkering operations at Zhoushan’s Tiaozhoumen and Xiazhimen outer anchorages have resumed today after a 22-day suspension caused by adverse weather associated with a typhoon system, according to a source.

Operations at the more sheltered Xiushandong and inner Mazhi anchorages had already resumed on 31 August, following a six-day weather-related suspension.

However, bunkering at Xiushandong was suspended again on 3 September after Typhoon Saudel made its third landfall in China along the Fujian coast. Operations there resumed on 7 September.

All bunkering anchorages in Zhoushan are now fully operational.
