New Zealand’s Transport Accident Investigation Commission on Thursday published its final report into causes and circumstances of the 2011 grounding of the MV Rena containership, the worst maritime disaster in the history of the country.

Report Details

The Liberian-registered container ship Rena had left the New Zealand port of Napier at 1020 on 4 October 2011 and was bound for the New Zealand port of Tauranga.

    THE deliberate grounding of Höegh Osaka outside the UK port of  Southampton, and subsequent attempts to refloat it, featured in two of the five slots in our weekly list of most-read individual Lloyd's List articles.

    Another casualty, Bulk Jupiter, made the list, as did our columnist Michael Grey's reflection on safety concerns.

    Perhaps the greatest surprise, though, was that MSC Oscar made the list for yet another week.

    1. Höegh Osaka deliberately grounded to avoid possible capsize
