Hoegh Osaka

Bye bye Hoegh Osaka: She’s on the move this afternoon

This in from the MCA. Ed


The Hoegh Osakalist is now at 5 degrees. This means that the vessel will now move from Alpha Anchorage at 1545 (approximately). It will be turned in the right direction.

The Hoegh Osaka is scheduled to arrive at Berth 101 in Southampton Port at 1900 (approximately).

During the towing operation to bring the HOEGH OSAKA in to Southampton Port, a Restricted Airspace (Temporary) (RAT) will be placed 1 mile either side of the navigation route and up to 2000 ft. This is designed to provide essential safety during the towing operation.

There will also be an exclusion zone around the vessel itself of 1,000 metres ahead and behind and 100m either side.
