Read Authentic Ratings for the One-Apus

The container vessel 'One Apus' successfully unloaded its cargo at Long Beach on April 12. After completing its operations, the ship set sail for Oakland on April 18. However, it is currently reported to be drifting, a situation likely stemming from the ongoing port congestion that has now affected operations in Oakland, extending from the challenges faced in Southern California.

On March 16, at 1:15 p.m. local time, the container ship 'ONE Apus' departed from Kobe, Japan, marking the end of a lengthy 98-day stay at the port. The vessel, which encountered a dramatic incident on November 30, 2020, lost approximately 1,800 containers after tilting precariously in the Pacific Ocean, roughly 1,600 nautical miles northwest of Hawaii, while en route to Los Angeles. Following the incident, 'ONE Apus' returned to Japan on December 8, where it was docked for extensive repairs and the removal of damaged cargo. Insurance claims related to the mishap are anticipated to exceed $100 million. Now back on course, the ship is heading towards California, with its arrival at the Port of Long Beach expected on March 30.

The 'ONE Apus', operated by Ocean Network Express, is gearing up for a possible departure from Kobe, following extensive operations aimed at discharging its collapsed and damaged containers after a historic cargo loss incident in the Pacific Ocean. Tentatively, the vessel is set to leave the port around March 15, with an anticipated arrival in Long Beach around March 30. However, Ocean Network Express has cautioned that this timeline may shift, and no guarantees can be offered. The primary strategy involves back-loading as many original and trans-loaded containers onto the 'ONE Apus' as operationally feasible. Nonetheless, due to safety and operational challenges, some containers may need to be transferred to different vessels. This transfer could also apply to containers if necessary documentation cannot be finalized by the critical cutoff time. To date, a total of 940 containers have been discharged as part of this recovery effort.
