HAFNIA LIMITED: Incident involving the Hafnia Nile
Singapore, 19 July 2024
The Hafnia Nile (IMO: 9766217), an LR1 tanker owned and operated by Hafnia
Limited ("Hafnia" or the "Company", OSE ticker code "HAFNI", NYSE ticker code
"HAFN"), was earlier today involved in a collision with a VLCC (very large crude
carrier) in the South China Sea. The collision caused a fire onboard. Our team
is actively coordinating with the Singapore Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre
(MRCC). An appointed salvor has been mobilized to support the ongoing response
efforts.
All crew members onboard the Hafnia Nile have been safely rescued. Two seafarers
have suffered minor injuries, while the remaining crew members are understood to
be in good condition. The crew's family has been informed and is regularly
updated on the situation. There is no information on pollution.
The Company's primary focus at this time is the well-being of our crew members,
as well as addressing any potential environmental impact resulting from this
incident.
A full investigation will be conducted to determine the root cause of the
incident.
