Complete Maritime Profile & Reviews of Baltic-Jongleur

On January 29, 2016, an alarming oil spill occurred from the 'Jongleur' while docked in Porto Vesme, Sardinia. Prompt action was taken as an emergency anti-pollution plan was swiftly activated, with containment booms deployed around the distressed vessel. Initial assessments suggest that crew negligence might be the underlying cause of this environmental incident, prompting authorities to launch a detailed investigation. The 'Jongleur' had arrived in the port just a day earlier, on January 28, for the purpose of loading a cargo of lead ingots.

In a late-night incident on May 3, 2015, the vessel 'Jongleur,' while sailing from Seaham to Otterbacken, collided with the Götaälv-Bridge in Gothenburg. The allision occurred around midnight when the ship's mast made contact with the bridge structure, resulting in damage. Following the incident, authorities promptly closed the bridge to facilitate an investigation, affecting both maritime and vehicular traffic in the area. Notably, the bridge typically opens 3-4 times daily for transit. After a thorough inspection confirmed there were no structural damages, operations resumed, and the bridge reopened around 6 p.m. Meanwhile, the 'Jongleur,' which sustained a dent in its mast, continued its journey and successfully reached Otterbacken by 4 p.m. For more details and photos, visit the Swedish report at http://www.gp.se/nyheter/goteborg/1.2704266-gotaalvbron-pakord-i-natt.
