INDUSTRY UPDATED – Port Omissions

Dear Valued Customers,

Due to a mixture of Industrial actions and operational adjustment linked to limited berth availability, we wish to advise that a few vessels will be performing port omissions to mitigate further impact to scheduling.

A few examples:

MAERSK BUTON 339S/344N – Omit Sydney Port

The contingency plan secured for the affected cargo will be as follows:

• Sydney exports will load Southern Star vessel MAERSK RIO NEGRO 345N and route via Tauranga for onward connections.
• Sydney imports will discharge at Melbourne. The PANZ service vessel CAP JERVIS 338S/343N will perform an inducement/2nd Sydney call (following the planned Melbourne call) for loading of MAERK BUTON 339S Sydney imports which are routing from Melbourne.
• Brisbane imports (via Sydney) will now discharge at Melbourne to connect to SFL HAWAII 345N for Brisbane discharge.
• Fremantle imports (via Sydney) will now discharge at Melbourne to connect to CAP JERVIS 343N to Sydney, to then load CMA CGM FIGARO 346N for Fremantle discharge.
• Adelaide imports (via Sydney) will now discharge at Melbourne to connect to CONTI ANNAPURNA 345N for Adelaide discharge.

OOCL HOUSTON v.193S/N – Omit Brisbane Port

 These Port Omissions will continue for the weeks ahead, we will keep you up to date as we receive more information.

Thank you for choosing BR International.
