A tug with 14.000 hp was deployed from Salalah to assist in refloating the "Theresa Arctic" off Kilifi and was expected to arrive on July 9. The tanker was sailing from Port Keelang in Malaysia to Mombasa when it ran aground off Kilifi on June 20 some 55 nautical miles northeast of Mombasa. The vessel was loaded with 46,000 tons of vegetable oil and 15,000 tonnes were to be transferred to another ship, the "Theresa Dumai", which anchored next to her. Efforts to refloat the vessel using the two Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) tugs "Alpha Granada" and "Alpha Kirawira" of 4.000 hp each failed due to bad weather and rough seas. (2 hours ago, by Timsen )
