P&O Ferries extend charter of Bore ships

Ro-roP&O Ferries has confirmed its long term commitment to its North Sea routes by extending the charter agreement with Bore Ltd on the NORSKY and NORSTREAM for three years, boosting the flow of trade between Belgium and the UK, and maintaining its presence on the Zeebrugge-Teesport and Zeebrugge-Tilbury routes for the long term.

As well as extending charter agreements on the NORSKY and NORSTREAM, P&O Ferries has reinforced its commitment to the Zeebrugge-Teesport route through a separate extension of the FINNPULP charter agreement with Finnlines. The FINNPULP will continue serving the route on two midweek sailings a week, giving customers more options on the key trading routes between the UK and Belgium.

The charter extensions ensure the continuation of P&O Ferries' 30-year presence at Teesport where P&O Ferries manages a specialised terminal and berth.

Peter Hebblethwaite, Chief Executive of P&O Ferries, said: "Our continued cooperation with Bore Ltd and Finnlines is in response to the importance of our North Sea routes to our customers, who are playing a key role in ensuring smooth trade between Europe and the UK.

"We're delighted to be reinforcing our presence on our North Sea routes and ensuring our customers continue to receive great service and consistent sailings between Zeebrugge and our UK ports in the years ahead."
