CSL Elbe Disabled

The 10,110 dwt bulk freighter CSL Elbe became disabled in the Nærøy Strait near Rørvik, Norway.   The CSL Elbe had to shut down it’s main engine after a fuel pipe had ruptured.     The pilot on board requested assistance with the rescue vessels Harald V and the Norway Coast Guard vessel Njord responding.   The rescue vessels kept the CSL Elbe in position while the crew performed repairs.   A few hours later, the CSL Elbe was able to proceed under its own power.  The rescue vessel Harald V suffered minor damage to its stern during the incident.  No reports of injuries or pollution being released.
