An LNG carrier controlled by GasLog grounded off the Mediterranean island of Crete over the weekend.

A spokesman for GasLog confirms that the 155,000-cbm GasLog Saratoga (built 2014) ran aground while approaching Heraklion late on the evening of 9 November outside the port's breakwater.

The GasLog Saratoga was in a laden condition and was moving to rendezvous with a port vessel to offload refuse accumulated during the voyage so far.
