Volunteer crew with Plymouth’s all-weather lifeboat assisted with the medical evacuation of a crew member from a fishing vessel 12 miles off Rame Head last Wednesday. Lifeboatmen worked alongside the Coastguard helicopter to winch the fisherman off the boat, and he was taken to Derriford Hospital for treatment.While out on this call, Plymouth Lifeboat Station responded to a call from a yachtsman on the River Tamar whose tender had sunk whilst he was on his way to his yacht.The sailor had swum to another boat and was uninjured; lifeboat crew assisted him by pumping water from the tender, relocating his oars and ensuring he returned safely to shore where he could make repairs to the boat. Just two hours later Plymouth RNLI was tasked to attend a 999 call to a broken down boat between Rame Head and Cawsand with two people on board. The lifeboat took the vessel to Cawsand under tow.‘We are anticipating another busy bank holiday weekend and would ask members of the public and mariners in general to stay safe, respect the water and remain vigilant when on or around the water,’ said Distribution : daily to 39.600+ active addresses 28-05-2018 Page 2 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2018 – 148 Chris Westall, Plymouth lifeboat operations manager.

The Maersk Honam, which caught fire while heading to Suez from Singapore, has finally been able to berth after being at anchorage in Jebel Ali since April 23 while hotspots on the vessel were being extinguished, reported Colchester's Seatrade Maritime News. Maersk Line 2M alliance partner MSC is asking customers with undamaged containers on board the vessel to pay an additional US$750 per TEU and $1,250 per FEU for transshipment and storage. "In consideration of the important geographical deviation provoked by the salvage operations and of the consecutive extra handling/storage costs that will accrue at port of refuge, MSC will unfortunately not be in position to carry your cargo to destination without collecting additional charges, the company informed customers in a circular.

Servet Akturk a pumpman with Zenith Maritime hailing from Turkey received an award for his significant contribution to the welfare of his fellow crewmen aboard the tanker GOOD LADY. A talented woodworker, Mr Distribution : daily to 39.600+ active addresses 28-05-2018 Page 3 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2018 – 148 Akturk has contributed greatly to the social life onboard his vessel by making a pinball table for the crew and new equipment for the onboard gym. Mr Akturk also makes personal gifts for specific individuals and writes poetry. Akturk was nominated for this award by his Chief Officer who has seen the impact that his hobby has had on the rest of the crew. The next award went to a captain whose approachable and considerate leadership has supported his crew directly and positioned him as a true role model to his officers and others within his company, Via Marine Philippines. Capt Jonathan Adriatico "patient and good-humoured attitude has helped his crews grow and learn and has set an excellent example to other aspiring captains of the good that can be done in the role". Capt Rajesh Unni was presented the award for the shore-based individual who had significantly contributed to seafarers' welfare. A truly remarkable individual, Capt Unni who is the founder and CEO of Synergy Group, has had a tremendous welfare impact both on specific individuals and on the wider seafaring community. In addition to the financial support and low-interest loans offered to seafarers and his direct action to support greater gender equality in the maritime workforce, the judges were also impressed with his personal generosity. Said mission secretary general Andrew Wright: "Seafarers are so often overlooked or undervalued for the vital part they play in the everyday lives of people everywhere. "Away at sea for months at time it can be all too easy for individuals and organisations to fall into the trap of 'out of sight, out of mind'. The recipients of today's awards challenge that in every way, making a real difference personally and professionally to the welfare of seafarers." said the Rev Canon Wright. Said development director Jan Webber: "This was an amazing evening honouring truly remarkable contributions to seafarer welfare from around the world. Over S$140,000 (US$) has been raised by the event, which will go towards funding the Mission in Singapore. Winners were chosen by judges Capt Kuba Szymanski - Secretary General of InterManager, Marlon Rono, president and CEO of Magsaysay People Resources; Esben Poulsson, chairman of The International Chamber of Shipping, and The Rev Wright, secretary general of the Mission to Seafarers.

Distribution : daily to 39.600+ active addresses 28-05-2018 Page 4 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2018 – 148 The largest labour union representing workers on Norwegian offshore oil drilling rigs has agreed to a new wage deal, it said on Friday, while a smaller union said it would ask its members to decide whether to accept the deal.Industri Energi, which represents more than 4,000 drilling workers, said in a statement the deal would give a "solid increase" in pay, averting a strike among its members that could have hit exploration efforts later this year. The Norwegian Shipowners' Association, representing rig owners, said a deal had also been signed with the smaller Safe union. The Safe union later said the pay rise was smaller than it had hoped for, however, and that it would ask its members to vote by June 22 on whether to approve or reject the deal. Before any strike is allowed under Norwegian law, a mandatory round of talks must be held under the leadership of a state-appointed mediator. Companies drilling on behalf of oil firms in Norwegian waters include Transocean, Fred. Olsen Energy, Odfjell Drilling, Rowan Companies, Maersk Drilling and Seadrill. Oil companies, including Equinor, Eni, Aker BP and Lundin Petroleum rent rigs to search for hydrocarbon reserves off Norway.

The incident occurred while raising a riser on the facility, where Point Resources AS is the operator. Understood to have come loose from the lifting arrangement, the riser – which weighs up to 15 tonnes – fell eight metres. Nobody was injured. An investigation team from the PSA is due to start work on Jotun B this week. Its goals include clarifying the course of events and identifying the direct and underlying causes in order to contribute to learning and experience transfer. The investigation will result in a report published on psa.no.
