(AFX UK Focus) 2008-03-18 11:04 GMT: TUI currently not in talks to merge Hapag-Lloyd with Neptune Orient Lines UPDATE

(Adds CEO comment that he did not offer to step down)

FRANKFURT (Thomson Financial) - TUI AG is currently not in talks to merge its Hapag-Lloyd container shipping unit with Temasek Holding's Neptune Orient Lines (NOL), chief executive Michael Frenzel said.

"There are no talks with NOL," Frenzel said.

"But we are open to the company and are waiting to see whether there will be concrete talks."

TUI yesterday said its supervisory board has decided to split Hapag-Lloyd from the rest of the company. TUI said it will examine all options for Hapag-Lloyd, including a spin-off, merger or sale to an investor.

Media reports previously said NOL is interested in Hapag-Lloyd and may offer as much as 6-7 bln usd for the world's fifth-biggest shipping line.

Frenzel said the company expects the separation of its Hapag-Lloyd container shipping unit to help "significantly" reduce its net debt levels.
