Reviews & Ratings for the Mv-Spil-Ratna

On May 13, 2026, a significant maritime incident occurred on the Mahatma River, where the cargo vessel 'Spil Ratna' collided with the 'Meratus Kolawa' (IMO: 9967108). The 'Spil Ratna' was navigating a narrow channel near Kutai Kartanegara in Muara Jawa District, East Kalimantan, while traveling from Samarinda. Meanwhile, the 'Meratus Kolawa' was making its way from Jakarta to Balikpapan. The collision resulted in the loss of eight containers filled with various logistics products, which were swept away by the river's current. The 'Spil Ratna' inflicted extensive damage to the starboard side of the 'Meratus Kolawa,' affecting areas above the waterline as well. In response to the incident, the port authority, KSOP, mobilized teams to locate the drifting containers and secure the area. Local fishermen and boat operators were alerted to the situation as a precautionary measure. Initial assessments indicate that one of the vessels may have neglected the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (P2TL) during the incident. The 'Meratus Kolawa' was eventually berthed in Samarinda on May 19, following the collision.
