The 'Oryx Trader' was disabled and adrift on the coast of La Línea de la Concepción when it was about to enter the Bay of Algeciras on March 26, 2019, due to an engine breakdown two miles east of Gibraltar. In stormy weather conditions it was anchored 0.8 miles from the coast at Punta de la Torre. Salvamento Marítimo mobilized the tug 'María Zambrano', as well as the 'Salvamar Denébola', which finally did not have to intervene. The ship was taken in tow at 3 p.m., and at 9:40 p.m., the 'Oryx Trader' was finally able to dock at the Isla Verde quay in the Port of Algeciras. Also the port tug "Juan González", the "VB Siroco" and "VB Algeciras" assisted in the docking manoever.
