Havarie
editThe ship ran aground about six kilometres (3.7 mi) north of the island of Wangerooge on the night of February 3, 2022.[2] No injuries were reported among the 30 people on board, no fuel leak sighted and the entrance to the port was not obstructed. The Mumbai Maersk was on its way from Rotterdam in the Weser estuary to Bremerhaven. The German Central command for maritime emergencies (Havariekommando) dispatched tugboats and the multi-purpose ships Neuwerk and Mellum to the distressed vessel.[3] A first attempt to tow the ship into deeper water on the morning of February 3, 2022 by the two multi-purpose vessels and five tugs failed. CCME deployed a number of additional tugs to make a second attempt.[1]
