The following release was published by Maersk:
In our commitment to keeping you informed and ensuring the seamless management of your cargo, we hereby inform you that the port of Navegantes has closed Monday 20th due to the strong current. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a specific timeline for when the port will reopen due to adverse weather conditions expected in the upcoming days. If restrictions persist, contingency plans will be activated and individually communicated concerning the impacted vessels.
As previously communicated, we may face some congestion in nearby ports, such as Paranagua and Itapoa. We greatly appreciate your cooperation in expediting customs clearance for import volumes during this period.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience resulting from this situation, which is beyond the control of Maersk.
Our team is ready to assist you with any further information or inquiries you may have.
Any updates will be promptly communicated through our customer advisories.
