Denmark's Maersk Line has committed its first two containerships to a breakers' yard in India as part of its new plan for more environmentally friendly recycling there.
The 4,306-teu Maersk Wyoming (built 1996) and the Maersk Georgia (built 1997) will beach at Alang later this month.
They will be scrapped at the Shree Ram yard, which is certified to the standards of the Hong Kong Convention.
