The cause of the emergency with the Chinese ship of the Yangpu Anyang Shipping co Ltd., which ran aground off the coast of Sakhalin, was a crew error. 20 sailors are still on board, waiting for special equipment to arrive and pump out the fuel. Main:
— The ship ran aground on the evening of February 8. When coal and fuel were loaded in agreement with the captain. During loading, the anchor broke due to the crew members and the ship was thrown aground.
— In total, we managed to load a ton of coal and 750 liters of fuel. The tanks are not damaged, there is no threat of an oil spill.
— Specialists arrived at the scene, but due to the weather they cannot pump out the fuel. They plan to do this tomorrow.
“The ship has sunk too deep into the ground, so it will most likely be cut up.” So they will pull him ashore.
Several ships ran aground near Sakhalin. In 2004, it was an American trade name with the name “Christopher Columbus”. Then a spill of 200 tons of fuel occurred. The United States paid compensation and spent the money on reconstructing the embankment. In 2021 – Chinese.
