- The water level at the Kaub bottleneck has reached a new low; after measuring 16 centimetres early in the week, it is forecast to reach nine centimetres by Saturday, compared with 25 centimetres in October 2018.
- Jens Schwanen warned that the Rhine was effectively no longer navigable from end to end, while Thomas Puls said transport routes south of Kaub could be completely cut off.
- A Lanxess facility in Krefeld-Uerdingen has halted operations because of missing precursors, while the company is shifting transport to rail and trucks where possible and reports costs in the low single-digit millions.
- Covestro has declared force majeure for a facility in Dormagen and temporarily suspended selected delivery obligations, but says it cannot yet estimate the disruption’s duration or costs.
Now the state must clear the way so production can continue: suspend nationwide Sunday driving bans, open emergency transshipment sites, raise the permissible gross vehicle weight for trucks, and give priority to rail transport. We must not wait for a transport problem to become a production stoppage.— Wolfgang Große Entrup, Chief Executive Officer of the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI), commenting on Rhine low-water and potential production stoppage
