Allision in Livorno
The 'CMA CGM Pointe Noire' allided with a large Paceco quay crane at the Terminal Darsena Toscana in the Port of Livorno on Oct 22, 2026. The incident occurred during the vessel’s approach to its berth within the Darsena Toscana turning basin. No injuries were reported. The vessel was maneuvering with the assistance of two tugs, when its bridge structure struck the boom of a crane that was stationed on the quay for maintenance. The impact pushed the crane off its rails. The impact left the crane visibly damaged and leaning towards the water, raising concerns about the safety of port equipment and terminal operations. The affected area was reportedly cordoned off, while port authorities and technicians assessed the structure and worked to secure it. The damaged crane was one of six Paceco units operated by TDT; in the immediate aftermath of the incident, only two remained operational. This issue was affecting the handling capacity of the terminal, which serves as the primary container hub for the Port of Livorno. Following the allision, the Port Authority has cordoned off the stretch of water in front of Quay 14—between bollards 15 and 29—extending 80 meters from the edge of the quay. This measure was implemented to ensure navigational safety and to allow for the stabilisation and securing of the structure. The terminal operator has engaged technicians from the crane manufacturer and submitted a report on the equipment’s stability to the Port Authority. According to Marco Mignogna, General Manager of TDT, the crane’s positioning during maintenance had been coordinated with the harbour pilots and the maritime authority. The cause of the impact remains to be determined. The crane is scheduled to be removed next week, while full restoration was expected to take several months. Investigations by the Port Authority aimed to clarify the sequence of events during the maneuver and establish responsibility for the incident. The ship suffered only minor damage. It has been placed under detention by the safety department, pending the necessary inspections required to authorise its departure. The ship’s captain has been summoned to provide clarification.
