Maersk Tankers Singapore Penalized for Environmental Violation off Cornwall Coast
Maersk Tankers Singapore Pte Ltd., the operator of the vessel 'Maersk Kiera', has been fined £15,000 following a pollution incident that occurred off the coast of Cornwall in February 2012. The ruling was delivered at Truro Magistrates' Court, where the company admitted to its role in contributing to marine pollution. This case marks a significant milestone, as it is the first instance in the UK where the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has relied on satellite imagery as key evidence in a maritime pollution case. The incident was documented when the 'Maersk Kiera', en route from Liverpool, was captured on satellite nine miles off Land's End, within the UK exclusion zone. The satellite image revealed a ship leaving a trail of pollution in its wake, the result of tank cleaning operations carried out by the vessel, which involved palm oil residue discharging into the sea.
