Tandanor advances in repair of vessel involved in two accidents on the Paraná-Paraguay waterway

Tandanor, an Argentine shipyard located in the South Dock of the Port of Buenos Aires, is making progress in the structural repair of the Panamanian-flagged chemical tanker Ginga Bobcat, which was involved in two accidents in May on the Paraná-Paraguay waterway. Work is concentrated on the bow, including steel cutting, removal and replacement of plates. The first incident occurred in early May when it collided with the tanker Helios off Campana while transporting 10,300 tons of sulfuric acid. The second accident happened 12 days later off Rosario when it was hit by a convoy towed by the HB Perseus.
