Working Conditions Aboard the Celina

On September 16, 2026, the vessel 'Celina' faced detention in Dandong after being cited for six significant deficiencies. Among these, the vessel had issues related to pollution prevention, specifically concerning its Ballast Water Management System, classified under defect code 14811. Additionally, the fire safety measures onboard were found lacking, with multiple concerns identified including remote control systems for machinery spaces (code 07114) and deficiencies in the fire detection and alarm system (code 07106). Furthermore, the oil filtering equipment did not meet the MARPOL Annex I standards as noted under code 14104, and the ship lacked its International Ballast Water Management Certificate, identified by code 01136. Finally, emergency systems, particularly the water level indicator, fell short of required standards (code 04113). Each of these deficiencies was noted with the clarification that they are not the responsibility of the Recognized Organization (RO).

The vessel Libra has successfully completed a new time charter agreement. Recently delivered to Kaoshiung, the ship will undertake a voyage through Indonesia before re-delivering to India. The charter rate for this operation has been established at an impressive $11,500 per day.
