On the afternoon of July 13, the fishing vessel Grey Erron became disabled in the West Philippine Sea some 70 nautical miles west of Botolan, Zambales, Philippines. The Grey Erron had suffered a failure in the main engine and the fishing vessel went adrift. The crew sent out a distress call with the Philippine Coast Guard responding. The 97 meter long, 646 dwt  response vessel Teresa Magbanua (IMO: 9908669)  was dispatched to assist. The Teresa Magbanua would eventually reach the fishing vessel several hours later.  The responders would offer aid to a crew member while provide drinking water and medical supplies. An inspection of the engine found it could not be repaired and a service boat was requested. The service boat arrived the following morning.  No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
