Moment of impact as container ship Solong hits Stena tanker

  • 13/3/2025 – Video footage provided by an Israeli maritime technology company has captured the moment that Stena Bulk’s MR tanker Stena Immaculate, loaded with 220,000 barrels of jet A1 fuel, was hit by the Portugal-flagged container feeder vessel Solong.

Orca AI chief executive and co-founder Yarden Gross said the company has provided the footage to officials involved in the investigations into the incident.

“This week’s collision is another stark reminder of the fragility of maritime navigation. Despite technological advancements, crews still rely heavily on traditional navigation tools that struggle with target detection in low visibility conditions, rough weather, and dense fog. Compounding these challenges, crew fatigue remains a critical issue, reducing reaction times and increasing the risk of human error,” Mr Gross said.
