Wheelhouse crushed in collision with container barge
The "Bever" was in collision with a container barge at the Brienenoord Bridge on the Nieuwe Maas on Feb 12 at 4 a.m. while being outbound from Mol to Schiedam with a cargo of sand, while the other ship was en route from Rotterdam to Alphen/Rhine. The "Bever" was severely damaged, it suffered water ingress, and the wheelhouse was crushed. No injuries, but about 0,5 tons gas oil were spilt. The EFM was still assessing the damage, but the "Bever" could become a CTL. The container barge suffered only slight damage. The KLPD launched an investigation in the collision.
