The Indian Coast Guard is attempting to tow a container ship that caught fire off the coast of Kerala in southern India earlier this week to prevent a potential ecological disaster, Indian authorities said.
According to Associated Press the Singapore-flagged MV Wan Hai 503 was on its way to Mumbai, India’s financial capital, after leaving the Sri Lankan port of Colombo on June 7 when it reported multiple explosions and a subsequent fire some 88 nautical miles from the coast of Beypore in Kerala on Monday.
Indian authorities have not yet given a reason for the explosions and fire. The current focus remains on firefighting and preventing the vessel from drifting towards the Indian coastline.
The 890-foot vessel carries 2,128 metric tons of fuel and hundreds of containers, including hazardous cargo, India’s defense ministry said in a statement Wednesday night.
“With the fire yet to be fully extinguished, efforts to establish a towline to pull the vessel away from the coast are underway," the ministry said. “The situation remains critical and is being monitored continuously.”
The firefighting efforts have significantly reduced visible flames, but the fire remains active on the ship’s inner decks and near the fuel tanks, the ministry added.
The coast guard launched an aerial firefighting operation Thursday morning using a helicopter from the Indian air force, Commandant Amit Uniyal, a spokesperson for the coast guard, said. The helicopter dispersed 1,000 kilograms of dry chemical powder onto the core fire areas of the ship, he added.
Deputy director general of shipping, Captain Harinder Singh, told The Associated Press the vessel was carrying a total of 1,754 containers of which 143 had cargos deemed dangerous by the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, including flammable liquids, toxic substances and solid hazardous materials.
The explosions and subsequent fire caused dozens of the ship’s containers to fall into the Arabian Sea.
