The "Hala B" has been towed from Chioggia anchorage to the inner port. Damage surveys and further technical inspection have been carried out by the class surveyors and the owner's technical teams. The ship sailed from Chioggia on May 15 at 10.15 a.m. under tow by the tug "Paraggi" (IMO: 9802968) bound to Chalkis, ETA May 20.

Firefighters have finished the operations of extinguishing the fire on the "Hala B" which broke out in the rooms adjacent to the engine room on Feb 26 at 6 p.m. aboard the lumber loaded ship. The Port Authority jointly with the Coast Guard of Chioggia had coordinated the evacuation of the 18 crew members, and the intervention of six tugs and a vessel of the Fire Brigade. The tugs with the water cannons constantly cooled the hull, prevented the spread of the fire, and allowed its progressive downsizing to a few outbreaks. On Feb 27 at 1.15 a.m. it became possible that the teams of the Provincial Command of the Fire Brigade of Venice, who transshipped to the scene with their boat and the Coast Guard patrol boats, boarded the ship. The extinction of the remaining hotspots ended around 03.30 a.m. During the entire night and in the morning the vessels "CP 287", "CP826" and "CP 541" of the Coast Guard of Venice and Chioggia, as well as the helicopter "Nemo 11" of the Nucleo Aereo di Pescara have monitored the ship and the surrounding waters for the possible emergence of risks for the safety of navigation and pollution, but none was observed.
