On March 23, 2022, a vessel unfortunately ran aground at the Luerssen Shipyard, located in Lemwerder along the River Weser.

On December 24, 2018, at 2:20 p.m., the vessel 'Arsland' experienced an engine shutdown while navigating the Saint-Lawrence River near Contrecoeur, Quebec, with coordinates 45°50'49.3" N and 73°16'34.1" W. The incident was attributed to a false alarm within the engine systems. The dedicated crew promptly addressed the issue, successfully restarting the engine after carrying out necessary repairs.

On August 16, 2023, around 1800 UTC, the product tanker ARSLAND encountered trouble while navigating the River Thames in the UK. The vessel, en route from South Stifford to Hamburg, ran aground at South Stifford. Fortunately, swift action from Svitzer tugs allowed the tanker to be refloated within approximately one hour after grounding. Thankfully, there were no damages or leaks reported. After being refloated, the ARSLAND was safely transported to Tilbury, where it moored later that evening. As of 1200 UTC on August 17, the tanker remains securely berthed at Tilbury. Preliminary AIS tracking indicates that the grounding was likely a result of mechanical failure. It is speculated that the vessel may still be in Tilbury for necessary repairs and inspections.
