Tank motor ship.

Industriehafen Mainz, Deutschland - On June 1, 2025, a tank motor ship (TMS), loaded with 1,500 tons of biodiesel, was in trouble around 4:45 p.m. in the Mombacher power arm. The ship's captain wanted to enter the Mainz industrial port, but due to inadequate speed, the bug drifted to the taxboard and the TMS got stuck on a sandbar.

The consequence? The industrial port had to be closed immediately for professional shipping! The ship responsible received a temporary advancement ban. Fortunately, at 8:15 p.m., an external company managed to carry the ship free, which could keep the port of the port. Fortunately, there were no injuries and no biodiesel came out.
