Hydrochloric acid leaked during cargo operations
On the afternoon of April 7, 2025, hydrochloric acid leaked from a T-piece of the port's loading and unloading equipment during the unloading operation of the 'Marina'. The vessel had previously moored at the Ostermoor State Port. At around 4:00 p.m., material fatigue led to the release of up to 700 liters of 30 % hydrochloric acid. A hole approximately one centimeter in diameter had formed in a valve of the port operator's loading and unloading equipment due to material fatigue and corrosion. The industrial park's fire department, together with the hazardous materials fire brigade, combated the leaking hydrochloric acid by adding water. Despite the presence of a containment tray, approximately 300 liters of the leaking acid-water mixture still entered the adjacent port basin. No one was injured, and the exact extent of the damage had yet to be determined. The Brunsbüttel Water Police have started an investigation. The ship remained stationary as of April 10.
Severe damage in head-on-collision
The "Marina" was severely damaged in a collision on the Mittelland Canal at Kalkriese on May 28, 2012, at 2 p.m. A Dutch flagged self propelled barge had veered off course at canal km 43,6 due to a health problem of the helmsman. The "Marina" could not avoid the head-on-collision and ran into the sheet pilings afterwards as a result of the impact. The helmsman of the tank ship suffered severe injuries and was taken to hospital. The "Marina" suffered significant damage.
