Arihant

On Jan 11, 2019, at 8.40 a.m. the "Atlantic Voyager" entered dry dock in the port of Durban. The ship had suffered engine problems in position 029 41 46 S, 016 49 43 E, on Dec 31, 2018. The tanker, now renamed 'Arihant', left Durban again on Feb 20 at 2 p.m., bound to Al Hamriyah with an ETA as of March 14.

The "Atlantic Voyager", en route from Walvis Bay Anchorage, Namibia, was adrift due to engine problems, in position 029 41 46 S, 016 49 43 E, on Dec 31, 2018, at 5 p.m. A tug was sent to assist the stricken vessel.

The "Fair Artemis" which was hijacked by pirates off Ghana’s waters in June, has finally berthed at the Takoradi Port to offload oil on Aug 8. The pirates siphoned 3,500 metric tonnes of crude oil from the vessel into another vessel and voyaged to Benin for sale but they were arrested by the security agencies in that country. The Director-General of GPHA led a delegation including the Western Regional Minister, Mr. Paul Evans Aidoo and his deputy, Mr. Alfred Ekow Gyan, the Director of Takoradi Port, Captain James Owusu Koranteng and some port officials to visit the recovered vessel, which was anchored at the breakwaters.
