In the early hours of July 4, 2025, at precisely 3:35 a.m., the tanker 'Stellata' was approached by a group of six intruders while navigating through the eastbound lane of the Singapore Strait's Traffic Separation Scheme. The vessel, which was traveling from Jors Lasfar to Yeosu and was expected to arrive on July 13, found itself in a precarious situation at coordinates 1° 6.93' N, 103° 44.95' E. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries or theft, allowing the crew to continue their journey unimpeded.

On October 13, 2022, at noon, officials from the Central Port Authority of Kalamata received a distress signal regarding a medical emergency aboard the 'Stellata'. The vessel, located approximately 120 nautical miles southwest of Kalamata, required urgent assistance for a 36-year-old third engineer who needed immediate medical attention. In response, an Air Force helicopter promptly took off to the scene, successfully conducting a hoist operation to retrieve the patient.
