Working Conditions Aboard the Gaslog-Shanghai

On the night of July 31, 2026, the tanker 'GasLog Shanghai' was targeted in an attack while navigating approximately 11 nautical miles northeast of Lima, Oman. The vessel suffered significant damage to its engine-room due to missile strikes or projectiles, resulting in its incapacitation. Fortunately, no reports of casualties or environmental pollution have come to light. Just two days later, on August 2 at 8:37 p.m. UTC, the Liberia-flagged tanker 'Egypt Prosperity' (IMO: 9534004) faced serious threats as it sailed eastward through the Strait of Hormuz. Over VHF radio, alleged members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps navy issued warnings of an impending attack while the vessel was roughly 20 nautical miles northeast of Khasab, Oman. After hearing a loud explosion in the distance, the crew altered their course towards Dubai’s outer port limits, and later reports confirmed the safety of both the ship and its crew. Additionally, the Liberia-flagged tanker 'On Pride' (IMO: 9945318) reported hearing warning shots and an explosion occurring approximately 1.5 nautical miles from its port quarter while navigating through Omani waters. The captain speculated that the projectile might have been aimed at another vessel but could not verify this assertion. These incidents underscore escalating tensions in the region and serve as a stark reminder of the dangers facing maritime operations in these waters.
