The recent surge in global energy prices—amplified by the evolving security situation in the Middle East and its impact on worldwide fuel availability—continues to place significant pressure on logistics and intermodal transportation markets. With approximately 20 % of global fuel passing through the Strait of Hormuz, current developments have created an unprecedented cost environment affecting Landside (Inland) and Intermodal operations.
To ensure service continuity, safeguard cargo integrity, and secure sufficient vendor capacity across our network, A. P. Moller – Maersk will implement temporary, cost reflective energy/fuel price adjustments on Landside Transportation.
Effective from 6th April 2026 (price calculation date) and until further notice we are implementing an Intermodal Fuel Fee (EFS/IFS).
These values will be applied from 6th April 2026 on Inland haulage rates for the Czech Republic:
- Truck: 6,0 %
- Rail Combined: 3,0 %
Given the volatility of the current energy market, further adjustments may be required as conditions evolve. If needed, adjustments are planned to be done on bi-weekly basis until situation stabilizes.
We understand the impact these measures may have on your operations and remain committed to supporting your logistics needs through this challenging period. For any questions or guidance, please reach out to your local Maersk Sales representative you are currently engaged with.
Thank you for your continued partnership and trust in Maersk.
