Dubai Express to skip call at Port of New Orleans due to high river level
Container ship lines say they’ve been forced to skip port calls at New Orleans because of high Mississippi River levels that have reduced clearance under bridges. Services said by carriers to be affected include those of Hapag-Lloyd and of the 2M Alliance of Maersk Line and Mediterranean Shipping Co. Hapag-Lloyd omitted two port calls this week and plans to skip one next week, said Wolfgang Freese, president of Hapag-Lloyd America. The affected ships are the E.R. Sweden and E.R. Denmark, with capacities of 6,000 twenty-foot-equivalent units, and the 4,250-TEU Dubai Express. Hapag-Lloyd also has relayed some cargo to other ships that aren’t restricted by the bridges, Freese said. http://www.joc.com/port-news/us-ports/port-new-orleans/high-water-causes-carriers-skip-new-orleans-calls_20160108.html
