Cargo fire off Port Klang

On May 26, 2024, a fire broke out in the cargo of the 'Northern Juvenile. Full details on the extent of the fire have not been released, but in a customer advisory, the carrier was recommending that shippers notify their cargo underwriters without delay. The ship was about 600 nautical miles from Port Klang. The owners have entered into a salvage agreement with SMIT Salvors under LOF terms to provide firefighting and salvage assistance to the vessel. Shippers could also be facing additional security demands if General Average is declared. The owner Norddeutsche Reedere is overseeing the salvage. The ship had made a stop in Singapore on May 23 after loading at Qingdao Port on May 7-8, Shanghai Port on May 9-10, Ningbo-Zhoushan Port on May 10-11, and Nansha Port on May 13-14. The vessel is fully loaded with Chinese goods and may be sharing boxes with Maersk, COSCO, OOCL, and Hapag-Lloyd. It was bound for Pointe Noire as one of four stops on the West Coast of Africa before returning to Singapore. Two tugs came to assist, and the 'Maju Mercury' established a towing connection.
