Ship runs aground at Ctg port

Posted by methun

A foreign container ship ran aground on Friday in Chittagong port channel.

Officials, however, said the ship that stuck onto the ground was not hampering shipping movements in the port.

Deputy conservator of the port Captain Nazmul Alam told  that the Panama-flagged Hanjing Samarang ran aground in the middle of No 1 Buoy and No 2 Buoy of the port channel around 1pm.

"The ship came to Chittagong from Port Klang in Malaysia and it ran aground while coming to the port jetty from the outer anchorage," he added.

Port secretary Syed Farhad Uddin said that the ship will be brought to the port jetty at midnight during the high tide.
