Tanker berth shutdown

There is a tanker berth shutdown at the port of East London due to a problem with the fire system.

According an update from South Africa’s National Port Authority Transnet on Friday (12 September), the issue is significantly more severe than initially anticipated, and an estimated 2-3 days is required to return the system to service.
