Port and terminal operator DP World Australia has announced the return of Swire Shipping’s Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Pacific Islands (PI) service to its Brisbane and Sydney terminals.

The first service to return to DP World Australia will call at Sydney on September 8, 2016, and in Brisbane on September 13, 2016.

“We are delighted to win back Swire Shipping’s Pacific Islands service to Brisbane and Sydney,” Brian Gillespie, DP World Australia Chief Commercial Officer, said.

DP World Australia operates four ports across Australia including Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne and Sydney.

Swire Shipping’s PNG service operates three multi-purpose vessels from Australia to PNG and the Solomon Islands.

The company’s PI service is a multi-purpose service catering for container and breakbulk cargo. The service links Australia with New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, the Samoas, Tonga, Kiribati and the Marshall Islands.
