MSC leads over Maersk surpassing 100,000 TEU

Author:   Posttime:2022-04-22

THE Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC) lead over previous front runner Maersk in the liner rankings has stretched over the 100,000 TEU mark, reports Singapore Splash 247

The latest data from Alphaliner shows MSC has 4,351,960 slots in its fleet compared to Maersk's 4,248,120.
MSC surpassed Maersk in fleet size on January 6, the first time in a quarter of a century that Maersk has not been at the top of container line rankings.
MSC's orderbook will ensure the gap widens beyond 500,000 TEU in the coming months.
In recent years Maersk has repeatedly stated its intention to be a logistics integrator with a fleet no larger than four million to 4.4 million TEU.
"If MSC ends up having more capacity than we do, that's not the end of the world," said Maersk CEO Soren Skou.
"That's not how we think about being number one. Our focus is on having a much higher turnover per container that we ship."
