Read Authentic Ratings for the Global-Peak

In a recent incident off the coast of Kochi, the tanker 'Global Peak' collided with the fishing vessel 'Al Naeem' early on September 22. Following this unfortunate event, the tanker’s owner has taken responsibility by providing compensation to the Indian owner of the fishing boat. This decision came after the Kerala Fishing Boat Owners Association raised a compensation claim aimed at addressing the damages incurred and ensuring the welfare of the affected crew members. The ship operators have formally approved this claim, facilitating repairs to the fishing vessel and supporting the local fishing community.

On September 22, 2022, a maritime collision occurred in the Laccadive Sea when the tanker 'Global Peak', traveling from Khor Fakkan to Port Klang, struck the Indian fishing vessel 'Al Naeem'. The incident took place at approximately 5:30 a.m. local time, with the coordinates recorded at 09° 53' 13.2" N and 76° 01' 55.8" E, off the coast of Kochi. The fishing boat, 'Al Naeem', had a crew of 13, comprising 11 North Indians and two Tamil individuals. Despite sustaining damage from the hit at its rear, 'Al Naeem' managed to stay afloat; however, four crew members were reported injured. Witnesses from the fishing boat asserted that it was adequately illuminated, yet the 'Global Peak' did not adjust its course. Later that day, at around 3:30 p.m. UTC, the tanker halted near Nagercoil, likely under the directive of the Indian Coast Guard, and remained at that location as of September 23 for further investigation.
