Survey reveals wreck has moved

摘要

A multibeam survey carried out by ADUS DeepOcean surveyors has confirmed further deterioration and movement of the wreck of the vessel Rena offshore New Zealand following Cyclone Pam. Rena's owner Costamare and insurers The Swedish Club said the aft section was expected to continue to deteriorate and move into deeper water over time as a result of natural forces. The ADUS survey also identified some movement of the bow pieces, which divers have since inspected and identified debris previously trapped that is now being recovered. Prior to the cyclone, Resolve Salvage & Fire conducted multiple dives to the wreck at a depth of 35-48m and was able to recover 992 litres of oil trapped within and near the engineroom.
