Salvage successfully completed
The 'New Energy' was successfully refloated on Jan 13. The vessel has been towed to Dung Quat Shipyard in Quang Ngai, where it arrived pm Jan 15 at 12.25 p.m. UTC to undergo repairs. The salvors had sucked up about 6,000 cubic metres of sand to open a 30 metres wide water channel with a length of 300 metres and deep enough for the vessel to be towed to open sea within about four days.
Salvage has commenced
As of Jan 10, 2024, a salvage company has started to dredge sand around the 'New Engery', which is still stuck on the beach near the Central Province of Quang Ngai. The Quang Ngai Maritime Port Authority liaised with the Border Guard Command of Quang Ngai, authorities of Quang Nam and Quang Ngai provinces and related agencies on a plan to refloat the ship. Representatives of the ship owner and the salvage company mobilized mechanical equipment to dig and suck sand to create a channel on both sides of the hull large enough to tow the ship back out to sea. The company has planned to suck up to about 6,000 cubic meters of sand, or even more to open a 30 meter wide channel with a length of 300 meters. It will take about four days to complete the sand dredging. The ship has on board 27 tons of fuel oil. The Central Oil Spill Response Center was asked to send forces and equipment as a precaution. The ship, loaded with nearly 14,000 tons of iron ore, ran aground on Nov 14, 2023, en route from the Cua Lo port in the Central Province of Nghe An to Dung Quat port.

Grounding in Tam Nghia
The 'New Energy' ran aground in the waters of Tam Nghia in Quang Nam, Vietnam, on Nov 14, 2023. The vessel had anchored in the area of Dung Quat port after loading and unloading goods, but strong winds and waves pushed it to shallow waters until the crew could not manoeuvre anymore. The vessel drifted closer to the beach and went aground approximately 200 metres from the coast of Tam Nghia. The crew was waiting for high tide for an attempt to refloat the vessel or tow it off.
