The SBX-3 complements the SBX-1 and SBX-2.
The new loop links Bremerhaven and Hamburg to St Petersburg, returning to Bremerhaven either directly or via Gdynia.
The SBX-3 will turn in two weeks and is operated with two ice strengthened ships of 1,000 TEU, the OOCL St Petersburg and the Conmar Bay, reports Alphaliner.
