Container ship Santa Giovanna and paper product carrier Obbola met in Øresund this morning

This morning German container ship Santa Giovanna (182 m x 29.9 m) took a Swedish pilot aboard off Hittarp in Øresund. Usually container ships of this size do not use pilots in the Sound, but in this case the Santa Giovanna needed the pilot in order to enter the nearby port of Helsingborg:

When approaching Helsingborg, the Santa Giovanna met the Swedish ro-ro paper products carrier Obbola, which was on its usual route to Tilbury:
