On February 5, the 103 meter long, 6535 dwt tanker Isfjord (IMO: 9190200) became disabled in the Vestfjorden near Svolvær, Norway. The tanker in ballast had gone adrift after it suffered engine failure and requested assistance.  The NSSR deployed search and rescue vessels the 22 meter long  Hans Herman Horn (MMSI: 257035360) and 15 meter long Sundt Flyer (MMSI: 259192000) to assist. The two NSSR vessels arrived on site took the tanker under tow.  Reports state the Isfjord was towed into Svolvær safely.  No reports or injuries or pollution released.
