As the result of a severe storm on Saturday, the high-voltage power line to the terminal in Valenciennes has been damaged. For this reason, only reach stackers can be used at the terminal at present, meaning that only limited handling of containers onto and off barges is possible. IT and telephone systems at the terminal and in the offices are also affected. Only mobile telephones can be used just now. We are working to restore the power supply as fast as possible.
