Norways Wartsila Corporation has finalised its acquisition of the Danish propulsion system service company JMC Marine A/S. JMC Marine specialises in propulsion system maintenance based on laser measuring technology and has a turnover of ?3.6m. The acquisition consists of laser measuring and alignment, vibration measuring, analysis and servicing of monitoring systems, and engine repair. The acquisition was consolidated within Wartsila immediately and renamed Ciserv Denmark.
The vessel, loaded with caustic soda and ethylene, was refloated using the tugs Barracuda and Braakman, with Multratug 10 and Multratug 15 standing by. The vessel was moved to an anchorage for a diving inspection on the next high tide. No pollution occurred and no visible damage was found so authorities granted permission to proceed to the Dow Chemical berth at Ternuezen.
