The oil slick that arose had a size of 1000 square meters almost immediately drifted to the open sea. The ship is calling at Aruba every five weeks bringing cheese, milk and other products from the Netherlands. After the accident the ship was detained until a fine of $ 30,000 was paid and the costs for the clean-up were settled. Two cruise ships and other boats which have been contaminated by the oil.
