Working Conditions Aboard the Emeryn

On February 9, 2021, the tank m/v 'Emeryn' encountered a critical situation in the South China Sea, suffering from significant engine failure that left it adrift and without power. The vessel issued a distress signal that prompted immediate action from the nearby tank m/v 'Galama,' which was preparing to depart from Nakhodai en route to Dumai. The 'Galama' played a crucial role in aiding the stricken 'Emeryn' by establishing communication with its owners, providing vital information about the ship's location and onboard conditions while waiting for a tugboat to arrive and offer further assistance.
