Grounding in Pasay

The ‘Peter Rönna‘ dragged anchor in Manila Bay and drifted aground on the seawall of a mall in Pasay in the morning of Nov 12, 2020, in heavy swell amid heavy rain falls and violent winds brought by the typhoon Ulysses. The Pasay police and a security guard of the mall remarked that the vessel was drifting near the seawall at 12:30 a.m. Three crew members were rescued from board. The police was working with the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) to determine the cause of the incident as well as assess the situation. The ship was resting on the breakwater with a list to port side. It had been anchored in Manila Bay in pos. 14° 33.25' N 120° 57.06' E since already around two years.

Wind Energy Components Bound for Duluth Port

Minnesota Power and the Duluth Port said they will reach a milestone this weekend when the 15th ship bearing wind generation equipment destined for Minnesota Power’s growing renewable energy installation in North Dakota sails into the harbor beneath the Aerial Lift Bridge. The BBC cargo ship, Peter Roenna is expected to arrive in Duluth late Sunday night (July 13) carrying more than two dozen renewable wind energy components after a voyage from Brande, Denmark, where the equipment is manufactured by Siemens A.G. Two other shiploads of Siemens wind equipment bound for North Dakota arrived at the port in June; two more are expected before the end of September
