Port of Qingdao, reopens, operates normally after pipeline explosion
THE Port of Qingdao Port is now reopened and operating normally following the pipeline explosion in the city's Huangdao district last week, reports Inchcape Shipping Services.
Two vessels are currently alongside and discharging, while two further vessels are at anchorage waiting to discharge. Following the explosion, most vessels changed their destination ports, so no backlog occurred, said Inchcape.
Marine pollution is being treated in the bay and is expected to take some time to clear. The clean-up operation currently involves 24 cleaning vessels, 10 fishing boats and one salvage boat.
