Total Lubmarine has resumed all services based out of the Port of Tianjin and experienced only
minor disruption as a result of explosions that occurred at the port on 12 August.
The warehouse used by Total Lubmarine was unaffected by the explosions and the facilities of its
main delivery agent were also undamaged, however the port’s customs building has been badly
impacted.
Consequently Total Lubmarine services based out of the Port of Tianjin have fully resumed but are
subject to an extra working day’s notice (four days instead of three). Services for customers with
vessels calling at the Port of Tianjin itself remain subject to the same period of notice as before the
explosions - two working days.
Delivery managers are in contact with all customers taking on lubricants at the port of Tianjin and
the following nearby ports: Caofeidan, Huanghua, Jing Tang, Qinhuangdao, Shanhaiguan and
Tangshan.
