Ship in detention coronavirus
Ship placed under quarantine in Durban in fear of Coronavirus

The bulk carrier Eaubonne (former name GH Storm Cat) is  now (4 May) under quarantine in Durban harbour. On the same day that the South African government issued a statement saying that the ports were on high alert for the Indian variant of the Coronavirus (B.1.617) that has emerged in devastating numbers in India, it was learnt that a ship that arrived on Sunday night, 2 May, has been placed under quarantine after the discovery that a crew member had died en route. Another 14 crew have since been taken for testing for Covid-19.

‘All our ports of entry employ stringent containment procedures to minimise the importation of COVID-19,’ said Health Minister Dr Zweli Mkhize in the statement issued on 4 May 2021.

The ship Eaubonne (IMO 9663104), sailed from the port of Kandla in India on 18 April on a 14-day voyage to Durban, where she arrived off port on 1 May, prior to entering port and berthing at Maydon Wharf 2 on 2 May at 2000.

During the voyage one of the crew members passed away and authorities in Durban were advised that he died of a heart attack.

The ship was carrying a cargo of 6,250 tons of rice to be discharged in Durban.

However, on 4 May dock workers and others working on the ship were told to stop all operations and that the vessel was under quarantine. Fourteen of the crew were taken for COVID-19 testing but the real worry is that a large number of dockworkers had already been exposed to the crew.

ESPO welcomes the European Parliament’s recognition of the strategic role and cross-border dimension of Europe’s ports

The European Sea Ports Organisation (ESPO) welcomes the adoption of the own-initiative (INI) report of TRAN-Committee Chair, Karima Delli*, on technical and operational measures for more efficient and cleaner maritime transport by the European Parliament. This was reported on 28 April.

It is understood that the report was adopted with 453 votes in favour, 92 against, and 154 abstentions.

The final text adopted in the European Parliament plenary contains many of the key strong points which are supported by ESPO:

  • The recognition of the strategic role of ports as hubs of transport, energy industry and blue economy.
  • The recognition of the cross-border dimension of maritime ports.
  • Support for bottom-up initiatives for zero-emission ports.
  • The need for a revised concept of Motorways of the Sea.
  • Acknowledgment of the role of ports in the review of TEN-T.
  • Support for a modal shift towards short-sea shipping.
  • A push for sufficient funding to both deliver the greening agenda and ensure the multimodal connectivity of Europe’s seaports.
