In the early hours of March 27, 2015, at precisely 12:45 a.m., the vessel 'Seg' was involved in an oil spill incident during gas oil bunkering operations at the Bominflot Bunker Station in Kiel. A mishap involving the mishandling of vents led to a significant spill of approximately 1 to 2 cubic meters of gas oil into the Kiel Canal. Responding swiftly to the situation, the crew implemented anti-pollution measures using absorbent materials to mitigate the impact of the spill. Following the incident, the water police in Kiel imposed a safety deposit of €2,600 before permitting the 'Seg' to resume its journey to Great Yarmouth at 6 a.m. This incident highlights the critical importance of proper handling procedures during bunkering activities to prevent environmental mishaps.
