Complete Maritime Profile & Reviews of Nordstraum

On April 29, 2018, the iconic Kotug Smit tugboats, "Smit Cheetah" and "Smit Schelde," were dispatched to assist the disabled tanker, "Nordstraum," which had encountered difficulties in the North Sea while making its way from Immingham to Rotterdam. The incident occurred during the midday hours, prompting an immediate response from the tugboats. After being successfully towed, the "Nordstraum" reached the AVR Terminal in the Botlek chemical port by 4:10 p.m. The vessel resumed its journey, leaving the port again on May 2 at 9:20 p.m., with its next destination set for the Elbe estuary, where an estimated time of arrival is expected on May 3 at 9 p.m. For those interested in visuals, a detailed photo report can be viewed at Tugspotters: https://www.tugspotters.com/app/content/2018/04/smit-cheetah-en-smit-schelde/
