What happened?
A vessel left port and started a transit. During the first part of the voyage, the vessel was overtaking another vessel and the decision was made to pass the other vessel on their port side, between the vessel and shallow waters. A safety depth contour on the ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information System) was set to 10 meters.When the vessel passed the safety depth contour, she ran aground, resulting in major hull damage and damage to the propulsion system. There was a leak of hydraulic oil which was limited to approx. 40 litres.The vessel re-floated herself and returned immediately to port.The vessel had to be dry-docked as a result of the damage.
