NTSB report in allision published

Fri Sep 23 13:12:49 CEST 2022 Timsen

An electrical failure caused the 'Jalma Topic' to lose of steering and crash into a barge near New Orleans on July 12, 2021, resulting in an estimated $6 million in damages, the National Transportation Safety Board said on Sep 22, 2022. The bulk carrierwas transiting upriver on the Lower Mississippi River when it struck a stationary barge that was being used for office space. During the voyage, the rudder became stuck at port 10 degrees. According to the report, when the pilot noticed the rudder was not responding he took immediate and effective action to ensure the people on board the office barge were warned of the situation, and attempted to slow the vessel as much as possible. The barge sustained damages to its superstructure and hull. Electrical, plumbing and communication connections to the shore were severed, and the heating ventilation and air conditioning systems were damaged. The mooring system and all gangways and surrounding catwalks to the barges were also either damaged or destroyed. During the NTSB’s investigation, a technician found that a solid-state relay on the operating steering control system servo control board had failed, causing the loss of steering. In addition, the investigation found the steering control system manufacturer, YDK Technologies, had created a caution sticker and released an important notice to vessels with PT500 autopilot systems in December 2014 that addressed the failure experienced on the Jalma Topic. However, the vessel’s operator stated they were not notified of the 2014 notice and caution sticker from YDK Technologies until after the contact. The NTSB determined the probable cause of the contact of the Jalma Topic with the office barge was a loss of steering due to the failure of an electrical solid-state relay on the servo control board of the operating control system to the steering gear. Contributing was the lack of specific procedures available to the bridge team to respond to a failure of the steering control system.

The 'Jalma topic' suffered mechanical issues and allided with an office barge at on the Misssissippi at river mile 93.5 just below Algiers Point, about 1,7 nautical miles from the New Orleans Anchorage on July 12, 2021. The tug 'Mardi Gras' quickly responded and held the vessel against the bank until it could be secured. The 'Jalma Topic' was later moved just downriver to the General Anchorage to be investigated and inspected by a Sector New Orleans marine inspector and an investigating officer. The vessel had a puncture in the middle of its bulbous bow. The incident also caused damage to the lower end of the office barge.
