Operational Update: Port of Salalah, Oman - Lisbon Express - Hapag

In the early hours of Saturday, March 28, 2026, a security incident occurred at the Port of Salalah in Oman involving reported drone activity and explosions.

We can confirm that the port has temporarily suspended operations and local authorities and port management are actively assessing the situation.

As a precautionary measure, we have moved our vessel Lisbon Express out of the port. We are pleased to report that our crew is safe and unharmed, and no damage has been sustained to the vessel.

Please be informed that this may result in delays to vessel schedules and cargo handling.

We are closely monitoring the situation and remain in with port authorities and relevant stakeholders. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.

If you have any questions, please your local Hapag-Lloyd representative.

We appreciate your understanding and will continue to keep you informed.
