Red 7 Alliance
On January 19, the 78 meter long offshore support vessel Red 7 Alliance allided with a gate at Brunsbüttel, Germany. The Red 7 Alliance had slammed into the floodgate with considerable force. The offshore vessel 7 had damaged the hull in the bow with water ingress, but the vessel’s pumps could control the flooding. The gate sustained some 100,000 € in damage and the lock would be inoperable for several weeks. No reports of injuries. The Red 7 Alliance later proceeded to a shipyard in Kiel for repairs.
