Reviews & Ratings for the Azov-Concept

On March 2, 2020, the bulk carrier 'Azov Concept' encountered engine issues while navigating the northern approach of the Istanbul Strait, making its way from Novorossiysk to Tuzla. Due to the reported malfunction, the strait authority revoked the vessel's transit permission. After undergoing a challenging experience at sea, the 'Azov Concept' successfully reached Gisan shipyard in Altinova on March 5 at 4:50 p.m. Upon arrival, the ship underwent a thorough inspection, and repair operations have commenced, managed by a licensed engineering firm under the vigilant oversight of the owner's superintendent.

In a troubling maritime crisis, fourteen vessels remain ensnared in the icy waters of the Azov Sea, facing imminent shortages of essential supplies. Among the trapped ships is the Azov Concept, operated by Albros, which, as of February 12, is quickly depleting its resources. Reports indicate that the vessel has only four days' worth of fuel, a mere day’s supply of fresh water, and additional provisions expected to last just one more day. The current situation highlights the urgent need for intervention.
