18 September 2023 – Update 02
A.P. Moller - Maersk would like to bring you an update on the yard density levels at the Gdansk Baltic Hub terminal (DCT), Poland, which are still at a critical state.
In efforts to relieve pressure on the terminal, our teams are continuing to assess moving cargo flows from AE10 via different routes, however vessels on this service are intended to maintain a port call in Gdansk as per the scheduled rotation.
For cargo on the L02 service, our teams are looking into possibilities to discharge import cargo in Gdynia for a period of 4-6 weeks, until the yard density in Gdansk stabilises. We will communicate full details with you on this matter as soon as possible, should it go into effect or should your bookings be affected.
We thank you for your understanding and patience during this time and we remain at your disposal should you have any questions.
15 September 2023 – Update 01
A.P. Moller – Maersk would like to bring to your attention the critical yard density levels at the Gdansk Baltic Hub terminal (DCT), Poland, as a result of continuous operational disruptions and high demand across the market.
In order to avoid putting additional strain on the yard and prevent the situation from deteriorating, we strongly urge you to clear your import cargo from the terminal as soon as possible by picking it up latest five working days after discharge.
As the situation at Gdansk is becoming more and more critical, we may need to move Westbound (import) cargo to off-dock locations, where it will be available for collection the following day. We will communicate full details with you on this matter, should it go into effect.
Our teams are also assessing the possible diversion of inbound AE10 vessels to other terminals – to discharge import cargo. We are currently reviewing the possibilities and will communicate any changes as soon as possible.
Our primary focus is on keeping your supply chain moving, and we hope to have your support to ensure operations run as smoothly as possible in Gdansk despite the circumstances.
We thank you for your continuous understanding and we will keep you informed of any new developments.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact your local customer service representative.
