Germany's Ernst Russ Shipbroker (Russbroker) is expanding its commercial boxship pool into the Asian market.

The Hamburg-based shipbroker has added two feeder vessels from the fleet of the Dubai-based Transworld Group into its ERS Feeder Pool.

The 1,028-teu OEL India and OEL Colombo (built 2008) joined the pool at the start of the month.

The ships are trading in the Bay of Bengal on charters to Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC).
