The barge's cargo consisted of approximately 18,000 barrels of bunker C fuel oil. Sheens emanated from both vessels but appeared to be diesel fuel from the tug and runoff from the deck of the barge.

Not for navigation. The name is read automatically from official navigational warnings; a common name can belong to more than one ship, and a message may describe work the vessel is doing (cable, survey) rather than something that happened to it. Mariners must use official NAVAREA broadcasts and their national MSI service.
