Oil spill in Lunde

Tue Sep 08 17:22:36 CEST 2026 Timsen

On Sep 8, an oil spill was reported from the 'Baltic Star' in the port of Lunde. Rescue services have been called to investigate the situation. The ship was surrounded by an anti pollution boom.

Birger Jarl rested on the bottom in Lunde

Mon Jun 15 11:59:09 CEST 2026 Timsen

The Coast Guard was alerted on June 13 at 12.19 p.m. that the 'Birger Jarl' was sitting on the bottom at Lunde. The water level was said to be unusually low at the moment.The Coast Guard investigated and found no oil spill. The owner rejected the claims and said the ship has not sunk. The ship would be resting on the bottom 10-20 times a year. It was only ten centimeters from the bottom of the vessel to the bottom of the berth. The ship had arrived at the port of Lunde, near Kramfors, in 2022. Leif Ivan Karlsson made plans for hotel and restaurant operations on the vessel as well as cruises in the Ångermanälven. But the ship turned out not to be approved for sea traffic, and the necessary permits were also missing. Both the Kramfors Municipality and the County Administrative Board have repeatedly threatened to impose fines to force Karlsson to move the ship. Last fall, Leif Ivan Karlsson was sentenced to a suspended sentence for gross accounting fraud and improperly favouring a creditor after a bankruptcy in a company linked to Birger Jarl. He has repeatedly promised to take action. The latest bid was for the ship to be towed for scrapping in Stockholm. In Kramfors, criticism and concern have been raised on several occasions that the bill for the ship and any possible clean-up would ultimately end up on the municipality and taxpayers. The lease for the ship expires on June 30. In 2025, Leif-Ivan Karlsson put up the 'Birger Jarl' for sale for ten million Swedish crowns. But so far, no interested parties have been found, according to the owner. If no new owner is found before the fall, the plan is to scrap the K-marked ship, which was built in 1953. Leif Ivan Karlsson has also been charged in the case surrounding the recycling company Think Pink, where he was acquitted. However, the verdict has been appealed and the Court of Appeal's verdict is due this week.
