A Gulf Navigation combined chemical and oil tanker is reportedly under tow after suffering a water ingress in its engine room.
The 45,951-dwt Gulf Deffi (built 2009) suffered the ingress en route from Saudi Arabia to South Korea, according to cargo claims consultant WK Webster.
“As a result of the water ingress, the vessel is without power and salvage assistance is being provided by professional salvors who have been contracted on Lloyd’s Open Form (LOF) terms,” the claims consultancy said.
