The fire-damaged Maersk Honam is to be towed to Jebel Ali in the UAE.
Maersk Line's 2M partner MSC said the Danish owner had informed it that cargo will be offloaded in the port of refuge near Dubai.
But no estimated time of arrival has been given.
It could take two weeks for the vessel to reach the UAE.
The 15,262-ship (built 2017) was devastated by a blaze 340 miles off India's Lakshadweep Islands on 6 March.
