Maersk CEO Looks to Increase Market Share

February 10, 2016

A.P. Moller-Maersk's chief executive said its container shipping arm Maersk Line probably gained market share in the second half of 2015 after losing some in the first half of the year.

"We want to increase Maersk Line's market share. We hope some competitors will order fewer new vessels," Chief Executive Nils Smedegaard Andersen told a teleconference.

Andersen said the low oil price is the biggest short-term challenge for the group.
