Mitsui OSK Lines, charterer of the bulk carrier that grounded off Mauritius causing widespread pollution, says it has successfully removed all the remaining fuel onboard the vessel.
There were 4,000 tonnes of fuel oil on board the 203,000-dwt Wakashio (built 2007) when it grounded at Pointe d’Esny on 25 July, of which 1,000 tonnes leaked out into the surrounding reef.
