Arrest in Singapore
The 'Micronesian Pride' was detained by the High Court in Singapore on Dec 18, 2020. The reason for the detention was likely to involve disputes over payments for goods and services. The ship remained moored on the East Anchorage in pos. 01° 15.75' N 103° 53.17' E as of Dec 21.
Svitzer contracted for container removal
Svitzer was contracted for the removal of damaged containers from the "Eline Enterprise" in Darwin harbor. Some containers were filled with vessels containing ethylene gas which is flammable and can be violently explosive. The plan was first to remove all undamaged containers. The next step was then to get the damaged containers away from the ship safely. Several containers aboard the ship had moved, as the vessel sailed under very harsh and difficult weather conditions, 26 January.
Unloading of damaged gas containers delayed
The unloading of damaged gas containers from a ship in Darwin Harbour has stalled. The E-Line Enterprise has been anchored off the Darwin coast since containers on it were damaged in severe weather two weeks ago, leaking tonnes of explosive gases. Crews started moving the containers from the ship to barges on Monday in a process that was expected to take two days. But further contract negotiations between the ship's owner and the recovery operators today have stopped the unloading of the ship. The Darwin Port Corporation says it hopes the last of the containers will be unloaded tomorrow. http://au.finance.yahoo.com/news/unloading-damaged-gas-containers-delayed-050011805.html
