Giving support to «Un poco más» in Chile

Reidar — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 12:31:55 +0000

The 8.8 magnitude earthquake that struck the coast of Chile on February 27, 2010 has spawned over 100 aftershocks and sparked a deadly tsunami that killed approximately 300 people. The current Chile earthquake death toll is at 802 and that number is expected to rise. As aftershocks continue (and several experts have indicated they may continue for several months) tsunami warnings and false alarms continue to sound.

The local non-profit humanitarian organization based in Haugesund, «Un poco más», contacted us, asking for support in shipping a 40′ container with emergency aid from Haugesund to Valparaiso mid March. We acted upon their request and agreed to finance part of this logistic operation. The final destination is set for the small fishing village Dichato where the organization has been very active. The village is located in the county of Tome, which is located about 35 kilomters from the city Concepion.

Images from the destruction of Dichato which was hit two times, first by the earthquake and then by the tsunami.

Fishing boats and large containers can be seen hundreds of meters from the shore, houses are on top of houses while other houses have been swept to sea.

NORTH*SEA CONTAINER LINE (NCL) will in week 39 introduce the 7th vessel in its service, when the 519-TEU MV “Atlantic Hawk” is entering on time charter. With this vessel NCL seeks to offer even more capacity and even better service to its customers throughout the peak season.

As a consequence, NCL will from week 39 offer two vessels on the Hamburg/Bremerhaven service and five vessels on the Rotterdam-service.

We will together with Johs. Lothe AS be hosting a Workshop focusing on INCOTERMS in Haugesund May 22nd at Rica Maritim Hotel from 0900 hrs to 1500 hrs in “Lille Maritim”.

Johs. Sundfør og Johs. Lothe har fornøyelsen av å ønske alle våre kunder velkommen til INCOTERM kurs.

I en hektisk hverdag er det viktig å ha en god forståelse for de forskjellige leveringsbetingelser som brukes i dag. Konsekvensene kan bli store hvis misforståelser oppstår. For å unngå dette har vi tatt initiativ til å holde dette kurset i Haugesund for våre samarbeidspartnere.

Til vårt seminar har vi fått på plass en av de beste foreleserene innen dette emnet, Christian Lien.

Vennligst send din påmelding til reidar@sundfor.no før den 7. mai. Invitasjon: INCOTERMS.pdf
