World Fuel Services has secured a court order arresting a Hanjin Shipping-chartered boxship off California.

The US fuel supplier seized the 4,250-teu Hanjin Montevideo (built 2010) in the federal court in Los Angeles, McKasson & Klein lawyer Neil Klein confirms to TradeWinds.

World Fuel filed the lawsuit Wednesday seeking to recover $489,000 for bunkers that it supplied to the ship while it was at Seattle in July.
