DARYA SHAAN
The Australian Maritime Safety Authority(AMSA) imposed a 180-day ban on the 'Darya Shaan' for serious safety and maintenance issues. The ship has been detained from entering Australia after the vessel failed to report serious defects in the main engine and the machinery. On April 26, 2024, the vessel docked at Port of MELBOURNE, where it was inspected by the AMSA, and several maintenance issues were identified. The inspection revealed serious defects in the main engine and monitoring system. The engine room alarm system was found faulty and has a defective starting arrangement for the two generators. The maintenance of the vessel was also poor, as evidence from the 19 deficiencies found after the survey. Moreover, the safety management system was also not effective enough in maintaining the vessel safety standards. The AMSA reported that the vessel operator took repeated risks with the vessel, and the safety of the crew and endangered the Australian Marine Environment. The AMSA stated that it would have not detained the vessel under the port state control procedure if only the operator of the vessel, Anglo-Eastern Ship Management, had followed the protocol and reported the defects to the authorities.
Kiel
The inauguration of the new shore power facility in Kiel on Dec 9, 2020, meant that Stena Line now have the possibility to connect 14 vessels at seven terminals with on-shore electricity during port stay. The new connection in Kiel will reduce the CO2 emissions from the two vessels Stena Scandinavica and Stena Germanica with 2,700 tonnes per year. In total Stena Line reduce its CO2 emissions with shore power with 13,000 tonnes per year. The new shore power facility in Kiel provides 100% green electricity, thus also avoiding NOX-, SOX- and particle emissions during the port stay of the 'Stena Germanica' and 'Stena Scandinavica'. Aside from Kiel, Stena Line have the possibility to connect to shore power supply at its two terminals in Göteborg, as well as in Karlskrona, Norvik, Trelleborg and Hoek van Holland, thus saving 13,000 t of CO2 per year in its network. Of the 36 vessels in the Stena Line fleet, 14 are now equipped with High Voltage Shore Connection systems (HVSC). “Shore power supply is important for us for two reasons: First, we want to have an immediate positive impact on the air quality in the ports we use. Secondly, we expect an even higher share of electrification in ports in the future – at cars, trucks, port vehicles and not the least at ships. With our battery and power bank projects, we develop our ferry services further in that direction constantly and we learn something new each day. In 2030 we expect to launch a 100 % battery powered and fossil free vessel”, say Niclas Mårtensson, CEO Stena Line and member of the Swedish Government Elelctrification Commission. Kiels mayor Dr. Ulf Kämpfer inaugurated the new façade of the shore power facility, which has been specially designed and illuminated. The inauguration marks the offizial start of the on-shore power supply for Stena Line in Kiel. The facility was co-funded by the state government of Schleswig-Holstein (8,9 m Euro) and the EU (1,26 m Euro). In addition, Germany´s federal government recently agreed on a political package to decrease the user prices for on-shore electricity significantly. “We are very grateful for the political support on various levels. The planned decrease of user prices for shore side electricity is an important step for the competitiveness of environmentally- and climate-friendly technologies in Northern Europe. At the same time, we are very happy about the continuous positive dialogue with our partners at Port of Kiel and the city of Kiel”, says Ron Gerlach, Managing Director, Stena Line Germany.

Puerto Brisa
Debido a la ola invernal y el paso del huracán IOTA, las vías al interior de la región de la alta guajira quedaron en mal estado, lo que no permitió el tránsito de camiones con alimentos y ayudas a la población indígena de esta zona. Por este motivo, a través de Puerto Brisa S.A. se llevó a cabo cargue de estos productos alimenticios y kits de ayudas humanitarias al buque de desembarco anfibio de la Armada Nacional, ARC GOLFO DE MORROSQUILO. De esta manera contribuimos al bienestar del pueblo guajiro, con la organización de los delegados del Programa Mundial de Alimentos de la ONU y ONG locales.
