Tanker grounded off Moucha Island
The 'RD 1' ran aground, in pos. 11 43 03 N, 043 15 07 E east of Moucha Island off Djibouti on Sep 16, 2023, at 8 a.m. UTC. On Sep 19, refloating operations were carried out by the Djibouti port authorities, in collaboration with the Djibouti Coast Guard and the National Navy. The operation was successful and with no fuel leaks, but the tanker caused significant damage to the coral reef off Moucha Island. Djibouti Coast Guard divers inspected the reef after the tanker was refloated and were able to assess the extent of the damage to the ecosystem caused by the incident. The Djibouti authorities were working to mitigate the environmental impact. After refloating, the 'RD 1' proceeded to the anchorage of Djibouti.
