Our primary concern remains the 22 crew on board and ensuring their safety.
Union Maritime regularly operates from ports in this region and has a rigorous safety and security protocol. Crews are repeatedly drilled in all safety and emergency procedures.
The MT Barrett (IMO: 9351749) is a 11999-dwt tanker built 2005 and registered in the Marshall Islands.
Further updates will be provided as soon as they become available.
