On December 22, 2016, the United States Coast Guard successfully carried out a medical evacuation for a 46-year-old man from the vessel 'E.R. Calais' in close proximity to Port Sulphur, Louisiana. The emergency response was initiated after the Coast Guard Sector New Orleans received a distressed call at 3:25 a.m. regarding Cesar Matutina, who had suffered a significant hand injury while onboard. Swift action was taken, with a response boatcrew from Coast Guard Station Venice launching at 3:31 a.m. They reached the scene at 4:25 a.m., where they promptly provided assistance to Matutina. Following a successful transfer, he was taken to Emergency Services in Venice and subsequently moved to Ochsner Medical Center in New Orleans for further treatment. Fortunately, reports indicate he is in stable condition following the incident.

A maritime incident unfolded on August 8, 2016, when the container ship 'E.R. Calais' struck berth 5 at the Puerto Cortes container terminal while attempting to dock after its journey from New Orleans. The impact caused minor damage to the pier, but the ship sustained a significant breach at its bow, located just above the bulbous nose. Investigation revealed that the captain of the 'E.R. Calais' was held responsible for the allision due to failing to transfer control to the designated pilot from the ENP, contravening established procedures. Following the incident, on August 9, the vessel was unmoored and relocated to an anchorage for further assessment.
