PNG Express Wewak Removal

In order to improve our PNG Service schedule reliability and remove operational bottleneck, we would like to advise that we are removing our direct call at the Port of Wewak. Wewak remains an important location for us and will continue to be covered by a coastal third party feeder operator (Bismark Maritime) with improved frequency. All other port calls on our PNG service rotation remain unchanged.

Please find the below planned implementation changes and cut over vessel/voyage details that will also be reflected in our online schedules:

The PNG/08H Express. Last Maersk vessel voyage with direct Wewak call:

The 090/Coastal- PNG service, covering Wewak to Lae , first export voyage (13 days earlier than O8H/PNG express/ Contship Way 307N) details as follows:

The 090/ Coastal- PNG service, covering Lae to Wewak , first import voyage (3 days earlier than O8H/PNG express/Contship Way 305S) details as follows:

Please note that above dates may change based on the operational environment in PNG where the ports apply a first come first served policy. Our systems will be regularly updated to reflect any operational adjustments or date changes.

We thank you in advance for your continued support. Should you have any questions on how these changes may impact your business, please reach out to your local Maersk representative.
