Around 100 liters of fuel were spilled at the Taiwanese Keelung port during a bunkering operation of the 'Kanway Global on March 16, 2025, at around 5.40 p.m. The fuel leaked out during the connection procedure. The 'TS Pusan', 'TS Surabaya' and 'YM Immense ' as well as three pilot boats and mooring lines were contaminated, and cleaning and containment operations were commenced with pressure washers as a temporary solution. Oil containment booms and absorbent materials have been deployed to mitigate pollution and prevent further disruption to the port operations. The pilot vessels had to be drydocked for a thorough cleanup, whereas the other affected vessels have postponed their departures from the port.
