After weeks of intelligence gathering and a covert operation, our crew on the Age of Union assisted the Liberian Coast Guard in arresting two vessels, Guo Ji 828, a trawler, and Gavin, a refueling tanker, for illegally fueling at sea and evading regulations. No safety equipment, no proper paperwork, just an accident waiting to happen.
This kind of illegal activity puts both the environment and local economies at risk, and we’re committed to holding these vessels accountable.
