On December 4, 2017, a small quantity of heating oil was accidentally released from the deck of the vessel 'Groningerland' into the Ratsdelft area of Emden. In response to the incident, a response team of 40 firefighters swiftly mobilized to mitigate the situation by deploying oil booms and absorbent pads, effectively preventing the oil from spreading further. These containment measures were scheduled to remain in place on the Delft until December 5.
