After handling completion, M/V Hanjin Chennai departed at 17:45 within the same day.

In order to create the best conditions for consignees to receive the cargo, SNP and HJS agreed that all of the containers operated by HJS discharged from  M/V Hanjin Chennai shall have the final destination and delivered  at Cat Lai Terminal, other consignees who also has containers on this vessel  but the operator is the share slot with  Hanjin (i.e  Heung-A, KMTC, Sinokor ….) shall receive the cargo at the Place of Delivery noted in the Bill.
