Wreck delivered for recycling
After a total of 1,696 containers were salvaged from the 'Wan Hai 503', the wreck has been delivered for recycling to the APT Global and arrived safely at the designated berth at Dry Docks World on the evening of Jan 12, 2026. Most of the boxes had suffered fire damage except for the ones that had been stowed on the stern of the vessel. Hapag-Lloyd was also sharing the vessel with cargo onboard for its customers. The salvage operation was slowed by the extent of the debris on the vessel as well as the efforts to remove the firefighting water. As of late December, 11,675 tons of fire water had been removed from the holds. The clearance operation was completed by late December, with the hulk being towed from the Port of Jebel Ali, which had provided the refuge for the salvage operation. The APT Global operates in compliance with the highest international standards, and it was to handle the recycling of the 'Wan Hai 503' according to the requirements of the Hong Kong International Convention. The authorities were analysing the cargo list and other data to ascertain the source of the fire. In its wake, there have been several changes, including India has begun the development of capabilities to be able to provide a port of refuge.
All 1696 containers removed
A six-month operation has concluded with the removal of 1,696 containers at Jebel Ali on Dec 31, while the onboard cleanup operations continued.most of the containers were severely damaged by the fire. Salvage teams had to remove the boxes one by one, with complex slinging and lifting operations, due to the structural deformations sustained during the fire. Residue and waste removal operations remain ongoing in cargo depots 3 and 4, with longer times expected for the latter due to the presence of large quantities of sludge. The emergency teams also pumped out over 11,600 tons of extinguishing water.
