Exposed to chokepoints
Where cargoes from this terminal would normally pass a maritime chokepoint, by destination market.
| Destination | Chokepoints on the usual route | Alternative route |

| South Asia | Suez CanalBab el-Mandeb | Cape of Good Hope |
Routing is an editorial model of typical laden voyages, held in a hand-maintained lane table. It is not vessel tracking, and it does not account for diversions, canal draught limits, ice class or seasonal closures. See methodology, or take the machine-readable exposure feed. Links to the Chokepoints site are inactive until its domain is set in the environment.
