A Technomar Shipping-managed boxship that hit a grounded Iranian vessel off Indonesia last month will need repairs in Singapore.
Charterer AP Moller-Maersk told TradeWinds that the 5,576-teu Tina I (built 2004) is being inspected at Batam anchorage.
The ship was refloated on Monday morning. The plan is to move the vessel to a Singaporean yard for minor repairs before its voyage to Jakarta is continued.
The accident happened nine days ago, when the Tina I struck the stern of the 6,572-teu boxship Shahraz (built 2008) and got stuck on the sea bed.
Shahraz is controlled by Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines.
The Tina I is managed by Technomar of Greece, which has not commented.
No pollution
The Greek ship was carrying 4,096 boxes destined for Tanjung Priok in the Indonesian capital.
Video footage showed the port side of Tina I up alongside the Shahraz's stern at a right angle.
No pollution was reported.
Shahraz grounded on a rock midships in May, which led to its hull buckling and left it in danger of breaking in two.
At the same time, Lintas Maritim Indonesia’s 23,600-dwt bulker Samudra Sakti I (built 2001), the vessel immediately ahead of the Shahraz, also ran aground.
Initial reports suggested that the two ships had been taking evasive action to avoid colliding with each other.
Tina I is entered with the UK P&I Club. Its last port state control detention was in 2013.
Last month, the 4,405-teu Maersk-chartered boxship Maersk Launceston (built 2005) hit a Greek minesweeper off Piraeus, cutting the military vessel in two.
