Working Conditions Aboard the Irida-Gs

In a maritime incident on November 6, 2019, at 3:20 AM, the bulk carrier 'Ansac Christine Nancy' encountered trouble while making its way to Portland. After the pilot disembarked, the vessel collided with the south breakwater of Taichung Port in Taiwan. Following the allision, the vessel took precautionary measures and anchored at the outer anchorage of the port. Initial assessments indicated damage to the port side shell plating of the ship, although the full extent of the damage remains unclear. Fortunately, authorities reported no signs of oil pollution resulting from the incident, though the breakwater itself sustained significant damage at its corner.
