Endnu et containerskib i brand

To slæbebåde fra det hollandske rednings- og slæbebådsselskab Kotug kom til hjælp, da et containerskib brød i brand ca. 50 sømil ud for Mozambique. Men branden i maskinrummet var ødelæggende og betød, at skibet kom ud af kontrol.

Slæbebådene fra Kotug opfangede nødsignalerne fra det

2.503 teu store EM-Oinousses, der var på vej fra Maputo til Mombasa, da ilden brød ud natten til den 20. januar. I høje dønninger lykkedes det for slæbebådene RT Spirit og RT Magic at gennemføre redningsarbejdet og slæbe containerskibet til havnen i Nacala i Mozambique.

“Vi er glade for, at vi var i stand til at bringe EM-Oinousses og dets besætning i sikkerhavn og forhindre en mulig katastrofe for skibet, besætningen og miljøet,” siger Ard-Jan Kooren, der er CEO i Kotug.

Hændelsen er blot den seneste i en række af brande i containerskibe, der ifølge det britiske forsikringsselskab TT Club i snit sker hver anden måned.
