Correction: The tanker struck was the tanker Tank (imo: 8681460) not the tanker Good Success.

The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency has stated it has rescued three of the 12 crew from the MT Tank. The stern section of the tanker sank quickly with 8 crew trapped.  Only one body has been recovered.

Preliminary reports state the Elixir struck the MT Tank which broke-in-two.  Divers were requested to inspect the sunken portion to ensure no-one was left trapped inside (as a cook survived in an air pocket for two days  after a tugboat capsizing and sinking off Nigeria).
