No pollution after tanker sank
Despite the fact that the 'Kelsey 2' sank fully loaded with petroleum products and chemicals 25 nautical miles south of Wuqui Island in the Taiwan Strait, no signs of pollution have yet been found in the waters where the tanker was lost. The ship had got on distress after water began to enter the engine room, causing the ship to list to port side. The ship was en route from Hong Kong to South Korea when it sank. Over the years, the ship has undergone 34 port state controls, without any problems being reported at any time. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEZ4lo53Xi8&feature=emb_title
