On May 16 (Saturday) and 17 (Sunday), a few media outlets reported that crude oil had leaked from Takamine, a tanker operated by NYK Line, while the ship was discharging at JST 9:28 p.m. on May 15 (Friday) at Keihin Kawasaki sea berth (Kawasaki, Kanagawa prefecture) in Tokyo Bay.
However, there are no indications that any leakage of oil occurred from this ship. The vessel has subsequently sailed safely toward its next port.
NYK expresses its sincere regret to the community and all relevant persons for the concern caused by these media reports, and the company will continue its efforts to maintain safe operations on all NYK ships.
