There are two alternative scenarios for the incident, one of which is that the ship deliberately dropped anchor to cause damage to seabed infrastructure. Arguing against this alternative is the deliberate risk to the ship entailed in releasing the anchor at speed, with high risk that the ship and crew operating the anchor would be seriously harmed during the release.

The recent collision between a container ship and a tanker off the East Yorkshire coast resulted in the spillage of plastic nurdles, posing wildlife risks.

Following the tragic incident involving the Solong and the Stena Immaculate tankers, the captain faces serious charges including manslaughter as investigations continue into the crash.
