At present, quay capacity at quay 913 in the Port of Antwerp is limited. Significant delays in inland vessel handling are expected over the coming days.
Inland vessels scheduled for Thursday are already being postponed to Saturday, as there is a significant shortage of berthing space due to the handling of several deep-sea vessels. In individual cases, diversion to alternative berths may be possible; however, significant delays are also to be expected there due to staff shortages.
Overall, this situation is leading to extended turnaround times for inland vessel handling, which is also affecting our operations. Of course, we are making every effort to minimize the impact as much as possible.
Please note that under these circumstances we are unable to guarantee closing times, and liability for demurrage and detention is excluded.
