Gemini Cooperation, which has been jointly planned and implemented by Hapag-Lloyd AG (Hapag-Lloyd) and Maersk A/S (Maersk), an A.P. Moller-Maersk company, will start operations on February 1, 2025.

The ambition is to deliver a fast, flexible and interconnected ocean network with industry-leading

reliability of over 90% once fully phased in. By June 2025, all vessels are expected to operate according to the new schedule.

“Launching the new network is a great opportunity for all of us. With our targeted schedule reliability, we will satisfy one of our customers’ most important needs even better and set a new quality standard in the industry,” explains Rolf Habben Jansen, CEO of Hapag-Lloyd. “Together with our operating partner Maersk, we are focused on delivering on our 90% schedule reliability promise.” The Gemini network will also set new industry standards in terms of sustainability and advance the companies’ ongoing decarbonization efforts. “Thanks to our effective hub & spoke operating system, we can deploy larger vessels and thus simultaneously optimize speed, reduce idling times, and thereby cutting down on carbon emissions. All of this saves our customers a lot of time and resources,” Habben Jansen adds.

As announced in October 2024, the Gemini network will re-route via the Cape of Good Hope. The partners will continue to closely monitor and analyze the latest developments and their impact on the security situation in the Red Sea and only return to the Red Sea once it is safe to do so.
