Delays in Lagos affect Hapag-Lloyd’s services

Hapag-Lloyd published an announcement in order to inform about the latest situation at the Port of Lagos, Nigeria.

Current waiting times for berth in APMT terminal (Apapa) is more than 20 days, while for TICT terminal (Tincan Island) it exceeds 10 days, Hapag-Lloyd says. These operational delays heavily affect its two services, MIAX and MWX, which contain both terminals in their long-term schedules.

“In order to overcome this challenge and to minimize the negative effect on all of our Customers using these services, we are continuously evaluating the situation and taking schedule integrity measures for each vessel approaching Port of Lagos,” Hapag-Lloyd states.

According to the announcement, in case a decision is made to omit APMT terminal, the cargo is discharged at TICT terminal and further transferred to KCT terminal by dedicated barge service on Hapag-Lloyd account and arrangement, where custom clearance of Apapa cargo is possible (this is in particular occurring on MIAX service).

“We continue to work on long term solutions to provide more stability and service reliability for our Customers in managing their supply chains through Port of Lagos,” Hapag-Lloyd adds.
