Maersk says unable to ship Qatar bound cargo from UAE seeks alternatives
Jebel Ali
Shipping lines normally transship cargoes from the United Arab Emirates port of  Jebel Ali  to Qatar  which relies heavily on imports by sea and land.
A Maersk Line spokesman said on Tuesday: âWe have confirmation that we will not be able to move Qatar cargo in and out of  Jebel Ali .â
Larger container ships are unable to dock at ports in Qatar due in part to shallow waters so shipping lines use feeder services  which transport container boxes from the larger port of  Jebel Ali  in the United Arab Emirates.
The ban has meant that any ship sailing to and from Qatar will be prevented from calling at major ports in the UAE and Saudi Arabia  which include Jebel Ali  as well as Bahrain.
