Seaports are vital to the global supply chain because they transport 90% of the world's commodities by sea.

The sea ports are docking hubs for container ships, which after clearance, dock at a berth next to large cranes that unload the cargo.

Once the ship is aligned, cranes load and unload cargo on the dock.

In 2023 alone, almost 221 containers went missing due to rough water conditions such as storms and strong winds.

High waves corroding metal equipment connecting containers to the deck and the containers to one another.
