Bulkcarrier breached and grounded in allision
The "Ocean Phoenix" with 45,000 tons of clinker on board started to drift on Chittagong's outer anchorage on June 24, 2017, after her anchor dragged. The "Ocean Phoenix" couldn’t heave up anchor after it dragged, because the rudder or propeller got entangled in the anchor chain. The bulkcarrier allided with the stern of the anchored bulk carrier "Green Phoenix" which also was loaded with clinker. The "Ocean Phoenix" suffered a breach of the hull at starboard side in cargo hold no.4 and water ingress. The hold flooded, and the vessel's aft came to rest on the bottom. Salvors started to seal the leak in order to be able to dewater the hold. The "Green Phoebix" lost an anchor in the incident.
