COPENHAGEN, March 26 (Reuters) - The Dali container
vessel that collided on Tuesday with a bridge in Baltimore was
chartered by shipping company Maersk, the Danish
group said in a statement.
The ship carried Maersk customers' cargo but none of the
company's crew or personnel were onboard, it added.
"We are horrified by what has happened in Baltimore, and
our thoughts are with all of those affected," Maersk said.
Maersk's share price fell on the news, trading down 3.2%
at 1019 GMT.
The Dali was set to depart Baltimore early on Tuesday
and arrive at Colombo on April 22, according to a schedule on
Maersk's website.
The vessel is owned by Singapore's Grace Ocean Pte,
according to LSEG data, and
managed
by Synergy Marine Group.
"We are closely following the investigations conducted
by authorities and Synergy, and we will do our utmost to keep
our customers informed," Maersk said.
