On January 19, 2014, the cargo vessel 'Citadel' was successfully refloated in Trebujena and safely docked in Sevilla by 10 a.m. The refloating effort was supported by three tugboats, which played a crucial role in navigating the ship to its destination. Since January 15, salvagers have been engaged in dredging the sludge and sediment that had accumulated around the vessel. Engineers identified the high tide at 4 a.m. as the perfect opportunity to execute the salvage operation, which was expertly managed by Svitzer Salvage.

In a dramatic turn of events, the merchant ship 'Citadel' found itself grounded on the banks of the Guadalquivir River during the early hours of January 12, 2014, due to a dense fog. The vessel, which was en route from Porsgrunn to Seville, became immobilized approximately five miles from Trebujena in Cádiz, merely 10 meters from the river's edge near Sanlúcar de Barrameda. Efforts to dislodge the 5,300-ton fertilizer-laden ship faced challenges as the Seville harbor tugs struggled throughout the morning of January 13 without success. In response, the salvage firm Svitzer has been brought on board to assist with the refloating operation, tentatively scheduled for January 18, contingent upon favorable high tides and the completion of preliminary dredging work.
