On June 28, 2014, the oil tanker 'Torm Sofia' successfully thwarted an attempted pirate hijacking while navigating the treacherous waters of the Gulf of Aden. The alert Filipino captain and his crew, supported by armed security personnel, responded swiftly to the threat posed by a group of pirates in a skiff. Fortunately, this incident resulted in no injuries among the crew or security team, thanks to their adherence to the industry's best management practices (BMP 4). At the time, the 'Torm Sofia' was making its way from Sikka, India, to New York when the pirates approached, underscoring the ongoing risks that vessels face in this maritime region.
