Delta Tankers say cameras show ‘no proof’ ship leaked oil off Brazil


DELTA TANKERS LTD., manager of crude oil tanker BOUBOULINA (IMO No 9298753), under a Greek flag, report that they have now conducted a full search of the material from the cameras and sensors that all their vessels carry as part of their safety and environmental policies, to monitor activity on board, activity alongside the vessel, as well as course alternations, stoppages, speed etc.

There is no proof of the vessel having stopped, conducted any kind of STS operation (Ship to Ship), oil leaked/spilled, slowed down or veered off course, on its passage from Venezuela to Melaka, Malaysia.

This material will be willingly shared with Brazilian autorities, should they contact the company this investigation. So far, no such contact has been made.
