London: UK officials were probably concerned Environmental damage A day after Tuesday and a day in search of answers, when the cargo ship hit a tanker that took the jet fuel for the US military away from East England, and burned both utensils.
Solong, a registered container from Portugal, exposed US flag tanker MV Stena on Monday. The collision caused the blast and a fire that burned for more than 24 hours. On Tuesday morning, a helicopter filmed footage shows that the fire has gone out on a massive tanker, with a large number of gash towards the port.
The UK Coast Guard Agency said Tuesday that “Solong is still clear and the fire in Stena’s flames has been reduced.” It states that the cargo ship was flowing away from the tanker, and a 1 km (about a mile) was kept around both ships. The government said the cause of the conflict was being investigated, but there was no indication of misconduct.
Government Minister Matthew Penny Cook said it was a “fast -moving and dynamic situation.”
He said that the air quality readings are normal and the Coast Guard unit “is well equipped to control and disperse any part of the oil,” he said, “including booms deployed from ships to prevent oil spread, and aircraft that can sprinkle people on the outbreak.
The collision mobilized a major rescue operation by life boats, coast guard aircraft and commercial ships in the northern sea of the Navy.
In addition to one of the 37 members of the two crew, about 150 150 miles (240 km) north of London, the beach was safely brought to the coast at the port of Gramesby, with no major injury. One of the staff members was missing, and the Coast Guards called out late on Monday.
The Investigation Branch of the British Marine Crown has begun collecting evidence that a stationary tanker was targeted due to Solong, a Scotland from Scotland, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, which was about 10 10 miles (16 km) from the English coast.
The investigation will be led by the United States and Portugal, countries where the ships are flagged.
183 meters (596 feet) Stena was working as part of the US government’s tanker security program, a group of commercial ships that could be contracted to carry fuel for the army when needed. Its operator, US -based Maritime Management Firm Karoli said it contains 220,000 barrels of jet A1 fuel in 16 tanks, of which at least one exploded.
The company said it was unclear how much fuel had gone to the sea.
Solong, the owner of the shipping company Ernest Russia, said that contrary to earlier reports, the vessel was not taking sodium synoid containers, which can produce harmful gas combined with water. It states that the first chemical was present in four empty containers.
The company said in a statement, “Our team is active with all local officials, and we will work together with clean teams to ensure that every effort is made to reduce the effects of the sea environment.”
Greenpiece Yuk said that it was too early to evaluate the limit of any environmental damage from the collision, which was near the fishing fields and large colonies of maritime boundaries.
Environmental experts said oil and chemicals threatened marine life, which poses a risk of wheel and dolphin and birds, including puffins, ginets and glyamotes that live on coastal rocks.
“The life of the coast is” of great biological, cultural and economic importance with this part of the coast, “said Tom Web, a senior lecturer on maritime environment and protection at the University of Sheffield.
“Apart from the wealth of maritime life, the whole year, this time of the year is very important for many migratory species,” he said.
Environmental effects will depend on numerous factors, including “spill size, climatic conditions, marine streams, water waves, air samples and oil types,” said Alex Lukyanov, oil -spreading models at the University of Reading.
“This particular event is disturbing because it contains permanent oil, which gradually breaks into the water,” he said. “Environmental tools can be severe.”
