COSCO has launched a feeder container shipping line connecting northern and eastern China's ports of Tianjin, Yantai and Shanghai, Xinhua reported. The weekly service will be connected to Cosco's ocean shipping lines to Europe and America at Shanghai. The maiden voyage vessel loaded 86 TEU at Yantai. The launch of the line is expected to relieve the space shortage pressure at Yantai caused by the suspension of Cosco's service to US west coast. The average vessel capacity of the 18 ships is 8,000 TEU. Asian Shipper
