The New Panamax boxship is operated by Singapore-based Ocean Network Express (ONE) and deployed in the Pacific South Loop 7 (PS7) service. Built in 2018, it is owned by Japanese shipping major NYK Line, one of three founders of ONE.
“According to our partner ONE …, a limited number of containers are affected by this incident,” German shipping company Hapag-Lloyd said in its customer avisory on 3 November.
