The rise in global energy prices has significant implications for the logistics and transportation markets: According to a statement from AP Moller – Maersk, this particularly affects intermodal transport, as approximately 20% of global fuel transport is routed through the Strait of Hormuz. These developments have created an extraordinary cost environment that impacts both land transport and intermodal transport.
To ensure the continuity of its services, the company feels compelled to make temporary adjustments to energy and fuel prices in the land transport sector. Starting from March 16, 2026 (price calculation cut-off date), it will impose a fee for intermodal fuel deliveries (EFS/IFS).
Fee structure for the DACH region
The new fees will initially apply until further notice and will be reviewed every two weeks to account for the changing conditions of the energy market. For the period from April 13 to April 27, 2026, the following surcharges will apply for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland:
– A surcharge of 12% will be applied for truck transports.
– For Barge & BCO (Barge Container Operations), the surcharge is also 12%.
– For RCO (Rail Container Operations), the surcharge is 6%.
These percentages will be applied to the IHI/IHE (Intermodal Handling Index / Intermodal Energy Index).
