船上装载炮弹！一货船遭遇风暴袭击，集装箱受损

一艘德国所有的货船“伊娃·玛丽号”（HC Eva Marie）从约旦向德国运送炮弹，在遭遇风暴“伊欧温”（Eowyn）造成的货物转移后，仍然停靠在西班牙维戈港。

由于另一场风暴“赫米尼亚”（Herminia）即将来临，超过10米的海浪使航行变得不安全，这艘船在港口避难。

这艘11000载重吨的双层船建于2007年，悬挂在安提瓜，当时正在运输96个集装箱，其中9个集装箱因外部结构损坏而松动。

2月1日，装载公司的一名专家、船长和保安人员，以及收货人和港务局保安部门的代表进行了初步检查。

官员们证实，受损集装箱内的炮弹完好无损，并被安全地包装在保护箱内。货物是按照国际安全标准装载的，没有受到损害的危险。

由于该船所载货物的性质，维戈港务局（APV）在危险货物码头指定了一个泊位。从船只抵达前几个小时起，该地区就受到港口警察、国民警卫队和私人保安人员的24小时安全监视。

在Praza da Estrela的中央办事处举行了一次协调会议，所有有关方面都参加了会议，包括船舶收货人、装卸公司、海事管理局、国民警卫队、APV和装货公司代表。

当局表示，这艘船进入维戈是最安全的选择，可以避免进一步的损坏和海上潜在的货物损失。他们表示，在任何时候都不会对人员或港口基础设施造成风险。

货运公司目前正在制定一项安全计划，以拆除和固定损坏的集装箱，该计划正在接受所有必要机构的审查和验证。该计划包括：

当局证实，进行强制性风险分析是为了确保符合规定，并维护船员、基础设施和船舶的安全。

The German-owned freighter HC Eva Marie, carrying artillery shells from Jordan to Germany, remains docked at the Port of Vigo, Spain, after experiencing a cargo shift caused by Storm Eowyn.

The vessel sought refuge at the port after waves exceeding 10 meters made navigation unsafe, with another storm, Herminia, approaching.

The 11,000 dwt tween-decker, built in 2007 and flagged in Antigua, was transporting 96 containers when nine broke loose, suffering external structural damage.

An initial inspection was conducted on February 1 by an expert from the loading company, the ship’s captain, and security personnel, along with representatives from the consignee and the Port Authority’s Security Division.

Officials confirmed that the artillery shells inside the damaged containers were intact and securely packed within protective boxes.  The cargo was stowed following international safety standards and was not at risk of being compromised.

Due to the nature of the ship’s cargo, the Vigo Port Authority (APV) assigned it a berth at the dangerous goods pier.  The area has been under 24-hour security surveillance, monitored by Port Police, Civil Guard, and private security personnel since hours before the vessel’s arrival.

A coordination meeting was held at the central offices in Praza da Estrela, attended by all involved parties, including the ship’s consignee, stevedoring company, Maritime Authority, Civil Guard, APV, and the loading company representative.

Authorities stated that the vessel entered Vigo as the safest option to avoid further damage and potential cargo loss at sea.  They said that there was no risk to people or port infrastructure at any time.

The cargo company is currently working on a safety plan for removing and securing the damaged containers, which is being reviewed and validated by all necessary authorities.  The plan involves:

Moving undamaged containers to another hold to isolate the affected ones.

Inspection of the damaged containers by specialists in handling dangerous goods, who will arrive in Vigo within hours.

Transferring cargo from damaged containers into pre-prepared empty containers, all done on board the ship without unloading merchandise onto the dock.

Ensuring all containers are properly secured and lashed before departure.

Authorities confirmed that the mandatory risk analyses were conducted to ensure compliance with regulations and to maintain the safety of the crew, infrastructure and vessel.
