Reports have been received that Netherlands flag vessel VOX MAXIMA (29,920gt built 2009) allided with Singapore flag vessel MARINE HONOUR (4,709gt built 2007) on 14 June 2024 at Pasir Panjang Terminal, Singapore on 14 June 2024.
As a result of the accident, one of MARINE HONOUR’s cargo tanks was holed and part of the vessel’s cargo of low sulphur fuel oil spilt into the harbour.
Whilst clean-up operations were quickly initiated, fuel oil has washed ashore along the coast line leading to the closure of beaches in the area. Various agencies are assisting in the containment operation.
Operations at the port have not been significantly affected and no injuries were reported.
MARINE HONOUR was stationary on the berth when it was struck by VOX MAXIMA, a suction hopper dredger.
