A tanker en route from Greece to Russia stalls in the Dardanelles Strait

[Regnum] The tanker Sea Marine 1, en route from Greece to Russia, suffered an engine failure in the Dardanelles Strait, the Turkish Coast Guard reported.

“The tanker Sea Marine 1 suffered an engine failure near the bridge over the Dardanelles Strait,” the department said.

According to the department, the 180-meter tanker, traveling without cargo, stalled in the area of the Channakale bridge. The ship, flying the Vietnamese flag, was towed to the Shevketiye pier, where it dropped anchor.

The Dardanelles Strait connects the Mediterranean and Marmara Seas.

As Regnum reported, in April the passenger ship Lotos, which had 48 passengers and four crew members on board, anchored near Vladivostok due to a breakdown. The preliminary reason for the stop was a technical malfunction.

In October 2023, the cargo ship Mitsos, traveling from Greece to Ukraine, had an engine failure in the Dardanelles Strait. The 195-meter-long tanker was driven to an anchorage in the Bozcaada area.
