HOEGH OSAKA - DAILY UPDATE 20 JAN 15

Salvage work continues. The list of the vessel is reducing (the photo shows the vessel lying at 39 degrees on the evening of Monday 19th January 2015. It was originally lying at 52 degrees).



The weather on scene continues to be favourable and the operation to remove clean water from the vessel’s lower car decks continues.

The vessel will stay at Aplha Anchorage until the list has been reduced to around 15 degrees, some ship’s systems have been reinstated and weather conditions are suitable. The long range weather forecast is now indicating that it is unlikely that the Hoegh Osaka will be moved from Alpha Anchorage to a berth at Southampton Port on Wednesday (21st January 2015).

A further update will be issued tomorrow
