What is Ship Anchoring Incident: Pipeline Damage about?
The vessel Young Lady dragged its anchor in rough weather conditions near Tees Port, damaging an underwater gas pipeline. An investigation found that the vessel waited too long to slip its anchor as weather deteriorated, and its windlass failed when the crew tried to weigh anchor with excessive strain on the cable from the dragging, allowing the anchor to snag and damage the pipeline. Corrective actions were taken by the vessel owner, port authority, and pipeline operator to prevent future such incidents.
