 As a result of highly developed global supply chain, the disaster of one area will have an influence on the world economy. Therefore, to construct the resilient logistic network that can suppress the indirect economic damage of the disaster is strongly required.
 This paper analyzes the influence of US west coast port disruption on international container transport. In this paper, the deterioration of efficiency of container handling at US west coast port was calculated, and the economic damage as to Japan by delaying of container transport and shifting to air transport were estimated.
