Admiral Container Lines
SCAC: ADMU
Malta-based regional line running weekly container services across the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea since 1998.
Admiral Container Lines started in 1998, when its first ship, the m/v Admiral de Ribas, sailed with just 20 containers. From that modest beginning the company built a network of scheduled liner services concentrated in the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea, and today registers its head office at Vincenti Buildings on Strait Street in Valletta, Malta. Its own branding sums up the focus plainly: a regional operator in the Eastmed and Black Sea trades rather than a global deep-sea carrier.

About Admiral Container Lines
Admiral Container Lines started in 1998, when its first ship, the m/v Admiral de Ribas, sailed with just 20 containers. From that modest beginning the company built a network of scheduled liner services concentrated in the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea, and today registers its head office at Vincenti Buildings on Strait Street in Valletta, Malta. Its own branding sums up the focus plainly: a regional operator in the Eastmed and Black Sea trades rather than a global deep-sea carrier.
Rather than owning a large deep-sea fleet, Admiral runs the trade using chartered ships and slot and vessel-sharing arrangements with partner carriers. The operated tonnage is relatively small; the m/v Admiral Galaxy, for example, is a 2008-built, 1,878 TEU feeder-class ship. Where the company invests more visibly is in its container equipment, a pool of 20ft and 40ft dry boxes plus high-cubes, open-tops, flat-racks and 40ft reefers that exceeds 10,000 TEU.
The service map covers Turkey, Egypt, Ukraine, Romania, Greece, Italy, Spain, Slovenia, Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria and Malta, organised into named strings such as AEX (Adriatic-Eastmed), TEX (Turkey-Egypt), EBX (Eastmed-Black Sea) and ILX (Greece-Levant-Eastmed). Volumes grew steadily along the way, passing 50,000 TEU of annual throughput in 2009 and reaching 100,000 TEU by 2013.

Why isn't my Admiral Container Lines container updating?
Admiral Container Lines tracking reflects what the carrier and vessel feeds have reported, so there is often a lag between a real-world move and the update. Panvaya refreshes on a regular cycle; a shipment that looks stuck usually just means the next milestone (such as vessel departure or discharge) hasn't been filed yet.
How accurate is the ETA for Admiral Container Lines shipments?
Panvaya combines Admiral Container Lines's schedule with live vessel position and historical performance to predict arrival, and refines the ETA as the journey progresses and conditions change. It is a continuously updated estimate, not a guarantee.
