A year on from the grounding of the new Lomar Shipping containership Kea Trader, the owner has said significant salvage progress has been made.
The 2,194-teu vessel (built 2017) hit a rock reef off New Caledonia in the South Pacific on 12 July, 2017.
The vessel broke into two halves last November as six months of storm force conditions affected the vessel and slowed the onsite work, frequently preventing access to the site.
