Skopelos
On May 9, the 229 meter long, 70146 dwt tanker Skopelos ran aground on the Wester Scheldt off Zaamslag, Netherlands. The tanker was aground just a short time as two tugs were requested to assist in refloating the tanker. The tugs were able to free the Skopelos later the same day and the vessels proceeded to an anchorage off Terneuzen. No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
