Latest company news about Container ships full of Maersk and Hyundai Merchant Shipping exploded

At about 22:15 on June 13 local time in India, a public barge loaded with containers of multiple shipping companies was driving in Indian waters. There was a container explosion on board and a serious fire broke out.

 

The accident led to nearly 500 containers of shipping companies such as Maersk and Hyundai Merchant Shipping being devoured by the fire! A lot of goods are feared to be destroyed!

 

The container ship with a large fire was named SSL KOLKATA. Its capacity was as high as 1118Teu. At the time, the incident took place from Krishnapatnam, the largest port of India, to Calcutta!

 

Indian media reported that there are 22 Indian crew members and nearly 500 containers on board. The fire was caused by the explosion of a certain container. The fire quickly spread and swallowed 70% of the ship's deck!

 

After receiving the alert, the Indian Coast Guard promptly dispatched rescue ships and planes to carry out rescue operations. Fortunately, all 22 crew members were rescued!

 

According to statistics, this 1118Teu container vessel serves at least Maersk, Hyundai Merchant Marine, Star Ship, MCC, Gold Star and many other well-known shipping companies!
