German tanker grounded on Danube
On Jan 15, 2026, the 'Nicole', enroute from Bratislava, got stuck on the Danube in pos. 48° 10' N 016° 60' E below the quarry close to Devín, at the confluence of the Danube and the Morava rivers. The tanker did not pose an immediate threat to navigation safety, but the salvage work was complicated due to the falling water level. The Transport Authority sent navigation inspectors to the scene. The vessel got stuck outside thefairway in such a position that its rear part slightly interfered with the shipping lane. Ships passing through the affected section were promptly informed through the Bratislava Harbour Master's Office, which operates a 24-hour service. The tug 'Theresa' with barge and a dredger on board has been on the scene since Jan 19. If the vessel cannot be freed, the salvage work will only continue after the river level has risen. The grounding was caused by a navigational mistake.
