In an exciting development for maritime logistics, Oldendorff has announced a new time charter agreement involving the prompt delivery of the vessel Tarahan.

The arrangement highlights Oldendorff’s commitment to enhancing their shipping operations in the region.

On May 15, 2023, the bulk carrier 'Alex A' resumed its journey from Damietta to Noukchott following the captain's deposit of a 100,000 Euro guarantee as mandated by the Maritime Captaincy. This measure was necessary due to the vessel's previous anchoring in a restricted area of the Bay of Ceuta. The ship had been detained since noon on May 18 after inadvertently severing one of the two critical fiber optic cables that connect the Spanish mainland to the autonomous city of Ceuta, disrupting telecommunications.

The 'Alex A', a bulk carrier, remains anchored in the Bay of Ceuta since noon on May 11, following an incident where the vessel severed a vital fiber optic cable that supplies telecommunications services for Ceuta, operated by Telefónica. The Maritime Captaincy expressed hopes that the ship would be permitted to set sail for Mauritania on May 15. However, a deposit of 100,000 Euros was mandated by the authorities after the ship anchored in a restricted zone, as indicated by nautical charts. Unfortunately, the ongoing bank closures throughout the weekend have hindered the ability to secure this guarantee, resulting in the ongoing detention of the vessel.
