Repair in Kiel
The "Northsea Alpha" remained under repair in Kiel on March 26. Four days ago a fuel line had ruptured, followed by smoke development in the engine room and an automatical shutdown as a consequence. The ship then was disabled and grounded between Oldenbüttel and Breiholz. After an emergency repair she reached Kiel. Besides the repairs and the class inspection also a damage survey by a diver was to be carried out. The tanker left the Voith Quay in Kiel on April 9 at 8.30 p.m. after repairs were finished. She next headed to Naynäshamn, ETA April 11.
