Asia-Europe Market – LP4 – MV Hyundai Drive (V.007) – Delayed at Suez Canal – Status Update

 
Dear Valued Customer,

 
Further to our advisory dated 20 January 2016, we have been advised by the vessel operator, Hyundai Merchant Marine’s, that an immediate diver survey failed to determine the extent of damage due to lack of sight. The vessel will be moved to Port Said anchorage, where a Class survey and a damage survey will be performed.

 
Delay to vessel voyage is expected. We will keep you updated on vessel repair plan, cargo T/S plans (if required) as and when information is available.
For assistance, please contact your local APL representative.
We thank you for your business and continued support.
Sincerely,
APL Co. Pte Ltd
