Bore-Song

Six migrants sneaking into the UK called cops from port after getting stuck in a container. The men sneaked into the container in Zeebrugge, Belgium, before it was loaded on the "Bore Song" and sent to Teesport, near Middlesbrough. They were caught after they called 999 from a port and said: “We are stuck in a container.” The North African men were desperate after being locked inside for more than a day after it had arrived in the UK. The ship docked at Teesport on March 31, 2019, just after 7 p.m. The container was unloaded with the men still inside. But by the early hours of April 2 it had still not been opened and the men couldn’t unlock it from the inside. They were suffering from dehydration and despite knowing it would mean certain arrest they decided to call 999 and alert local police. A fleet of ambulances raced to the port and the men were taken to hospital for treatment before being released into the custody of Border Force. None were seriously hurt.

Bore Ltd and P&O Ferries ink an agreement for the continued charter of M/V Bore Song in the North Sea trade after the current chartering arrangements expire in December 2014, the company said in its press release. M/V Bore Song was built in 2011 embracing a new concept – Bore RoFlex – with flexible carrying capacity, fuel efficiency and reduced emissions with its single common rail engine, thus representing an environmentally friendly alternative. With forthcoming new legislations regarding sulphur emissions, Bore has decided to install a scrubber onboard the vessel to further reduce the vessel’s environmental footprint as of January 2015.

The newly established Deltamarin Floating Construction Ltd, a subsidiary of the Finnish naval architecture and engineering company Deltamarin Ltd, has been awarded a contract to supply an exhaust gas cleaning system (scrubber) to Bore Ltd on turnkey basis. The system will be installed onboard the Ro-Ro vessel M/V Bore Song.
