New Southeast Asia/Mideast service
Evergreen Line, OOCL and Simatech Shipping have agreed to operate a new joint Southeast Asia-India-Middle East liner service beginning later this month.
The ASEAN-Gulf-ISC (AGI) service will use five 2,700 TEU ships in a 35-day rotation to offer weekly calls to ports in the following rotation: Laem Chabang, Singapore, Tanjung Pelepas, Port Klang, Colombo, Jebel Ali, Karachi, Mundra, Colombo, Port Klang, Singapore and Laem Chabang.
The Evergreen vessel LT Genova will initiate the service from Laem Chabang departing Aug. 20.
The three carriers said the new service would help meet growing
trade demand between ASEAN nations, India, Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates, and shorten transit times and enhance the shipping network in the region.
