Unconfirmed reports are circulating of a fire aboard an #Israel|I Vessel in the Indian Ocean, the reports circulating are all sourcing from a single source it seems, @AlMayadeenNews. Al-Mayadeen talks of origin port being #Jeddah, #KSA and then arriving in #UAE.
Oddly, that’s that’s not the Indian Ocean, but none the less, here is the tweet from Al-Mayadeen.
Taking into account these reports Jeddah > UAE, Israeli Cargo Vessel, this comes to one at the moment in this area, CSAV TYNDALL, owned by Zodiac Maritime, which is managed by Eyal Ofer.
Of course, this could be completely incorrect, as the story is unconfirmed.
I will repeat again, all this is unconfirmed, at this moment in time. I will update accordingly if this changes.
Ok, so event is confirmed, vessel, not yet, but the businessman piece aligns with the vessel above.
#Israel|i media are reporting Panama Flag on the vessel, the one in the thread is under Liberian Flag, had a look at the Panama Flagged vessels, nothing “popping out” at me at the moment, but lets wait and see.
Lots of outlets now picking up on the vessel above, yet no “official” comment other than this. Which aligns again with the vessel due to Eyal Ofer.
Offt, plot twist the vessel is now reportedly not owned by Eyal Ofer anymore and was sold two months ago so not affiliated So two options here, could still be the CSAV and the data is out of date or I need to do some more digging.
March 24th 2021 article CSAV was sold to Maersk. Data is out of date and they’ve reportedly attacked a vessel with no affiliation to Israel anymore. splash247.com/last-csav-ship…
Now we wait for photos to confirm any damage and/or the vessel.
Sorry correction, owned by JP Morgan by chartered to Maersk, apologies.
But chartered*
🤦♂️
Pseudo confirmation it was indeed the CSAV, all details aligned from the beginning, happy(ier) with my earlier prediction.
Thinking about this PEMEX incident more. 12 inch duct pipeline bursts/ruptures (was it complete instant failure or has it been gradual over a period of time?), the pressure created the column from the 100m/300ft depth. The column of gas would continue to be linear because they…
Closed the valves, ESD the platform and then would have blown down the pipeline to remove the gas in the system, to completely depressurise it *could* take several hours (fire reportedly burnt for around 5 which could align), eventually the blow down would have been neutralised
By the sea pressure at 100m/300ft depth, the fire itself would have extinguished at that point as gas would have stopped and the surface fire would die out. The vessels pumping water weren’t trying to put out the fire they were disrupting the water to keep the gas in a central
100m/300ft depth, from a broken 12 inch duct pipeline, that gas should have dispersed and not be concentrated to create a central fire like that, unless the piping is creating a linear pillar of gas up to the surface, which is a rather interesting one
Ok, so per PEMEX statement looks like they did close the valves further up the line and ESD to stop the flow of gas, which makes sense, curious how it ignited though, and why wasn’t the leak detected before it ignited, surely the pressure monitor should have picked that up?
The #IDF are reportedly responding to the 4 fires caused earlier today by incendiary balloons. Airstrikes are being reported south of #Gaza City at a compound belonging to #Hamas.
#Hamas Quraish site was targeted by 3 missiles according to reports. This site was targeted multiple times in the last couple of weeks in response to the incendiary balloons.
#Hamas Nisarem site targeted with 2 missiles per local reports. Site located in central Gaza Strip.
