Maersk-Teesport Ship Details and Seafarer Feedback

On June 6, 2019, at 09:20 AM, the vessel 'Maersk Teesport' experienced a significant mishap, releasing approximately 150 liters of oil into the ocean. This unfortunate incident occurred off the coast of Saint-Gilles, Réunion, at coordinates 22°13'00" S, 52°12'12" E. The oil spill was attributed to turbulent weather conditions that caused the vessel to roll excessively, reaching angles of up to 35 degrees on both the port and starboard sides.

On April 8, 2023, Maersk Tankers celebrated the christening of two new medium range vessels at the Sungdong Shipyard located in Tongyong, South Korea. This significant event marks a crucial step in the company’s ongoing fleet renewal initiative. The newly named ships, Maersk Teesport and Maersk Tianjing, each boast a deadweight tonnage of 50,000 DWT and will enhance Maersk's operational capabilities. These additions come shortly after the delivery of their sister ship, Maersk Tangier, which joined the fleet in February. With these newbuilds, Maersk Tankers continues to solidify its position in the maritime industry and advance its commitment to sustainable shipping practices.
