近日，包括赫伯罗特在内的多家航运公司发布预警通知： 近期经由鹿特丹港和安特卫普港中转至德国，法国和瑞士等地区的货物将面临严重延误！
请广大货主将延误到港情况也及时通知到目的港收货人或代理！
这次货物延误的原因让人震惊！ 
▲欧洲大动脉莱茵河 据欧洲媒体报道，由于近期欧洲持续的高温干旱，流经多个国家的西欧第一大河莱茵河（Rhine River），水位严重下降，这一情况导致需要通过驳船从鹿特丹和安特卫普港转运到其德国，法国，瑞士和奥地利等国的货物，将可能严重延误！
据悉，莱茵河上游地区的水位正接近一个通行和停航的临界点，有些往返于鹿特丹，安特卫普和其他欧洲偏港的驳船只能转载1/3的货物！甚至有些驳船被迫停止作业！
Inland transportation by barge to and from Rotterdam and Antwerp is currently severely delayed as a result of extreme low water levels on the river Rhine. The water level of the Upper Rhine area is getting close to a critical point and barge operators are either forced to seize their operations or can only use 1/3 of their capacity. In following days we predict delays especially in South Germany, France, Switzerland and Austria.
These extreme conditions on the Upper Rhine will in the immediate future also affect Mid and Lower Rhine, where similar measures are to be expected.
Cargo flows from barge will be moved to other modes of transportation, such as rail and truck, resulting in scarce capacities there.
