Last month, cargo traffic in the port of Singapore decreased by -5.3% compared to January 2024 having amounted to 48.7 million tons of goods, a drop that was generated by the -21.9% reduction in oil bulk cargo, which fell to 14.2 million tons. Other types of goods are growing starting with containerized goods which, with 29.8 million tons for almost 3.5 million TEU containers handled, recorded increases of +1.3% and +5.8% respectively on the January of last year. Conventional goods have settled to 2.4 million tonnes (+28.6%) and non-oil bulk cargo to 2.4 million tons (+16.3%).
