Collision on the Rhine
On April 16, 2025, at 1.15 a.m. the 'Anaconda', sailing on the Rhine en route from Frankfurt upon the Main to the Hanau Oil Tankking, was in collision with another tank barge near the Loreley at St. Goarshausen, loaded with 1400 tons gasoline, with an unloaded tank barge. After the ships hit sideways, the tanker got stuck on the right river embankment at river kilometre 553,600. There was a small water ingress, but the crew was able to patch the leak. The other ship could continue its voyage as it had remained undamaged, before the Rhine was barred for ship traffic between Bingen and St. Goar. The tanker could be refloated at 9.30 a.m. by the inland container ship 'Belicha' (MMSI: 244660037), en route from Antwerp to Ludwigshafen, and berthed in Bendorf, where it remained stationary as of April 17. The river was released for ship traffic after the successful salvage.
