Singapore's Neptune Orient Lines , the world's fifth-largest container shipping firm, said on Monday it carried six percent more containers in the four weeks to Sept 17 compared to a year ago. NOL said in a statement it shipped the equivalent of 217,500 40-foot containers on its vessels in the period, up from 205,700 a year earlier, mainly due to higher shipments on trans-Pacific and Asia-Europe routes.
The average revenue in the period from each container rose to $3,104, up 38 percent from the same period a year earlier.
