BLACK SEA

The Natavan dry cargo ship, which is part of the transport flotilla of the Azerbaijan Caspian Shipping Company (ASCO), is transporting carbamide from the Turkmen port of Bektash to the port of Varna in Bulgaria, ASCO representatives reported.

This marks Natavan’s first voyage outside the Caspian Sea after its overhaul, according to the report.

The ASCO said electrical and welding work was carried out during the renovation on the main deck and in the engine room.

On November 25, 2019, in the Black Sea, off the Romanian coast, the “Queen Hind” ship with 14,600 sheep on board rolled over. Only 33 animals have been saved. This is reported by the television channel “Digi24”.

When the ship left the port of Midia, it overturned. All members of the crew were rescued. One of them was taken to hospital to receive medical treatment for hypothermia.
