Ship holed by falling slab in Paradip
On July 11, 2026, the 'African SJB', which was berthed at the Paradip International Cargo Terminal (PICT) berth no 1 and loading steel slabs, was holed, when a 27-tonne steel slab, which was being lifted by a crane, fell after the lifting rope snapped. The slab crashed onto the hatch floor, creating a hole that allowed seawater to enter the cargo hold. The rope failure also caused the vessel to become unstable, further complicating the loading operation. The leak was plugged in the afternoon. A PICT staff member alleged that inadequate supervision and monitoring during cargo handling contributed to the accident.
