A Thenamaris bulker captain has fined over pollution from a scrubber in France.
The unnamed 66-year-old Filipino was tried in his absence and convicted at Marseille Criminal Court.
The Mesinfos website reported that he will now pay a €50,000 ($54,000) penalty after discharging wash water from the 181,100-dwt Seaforce (built 2015) at the Mediterranean port of Fos-sur-Mer in March 2023.
