VOS VEDETTE 7024122
Thursday, December 16, 2010, 23:21 GMT. Earlier this evening Aberdeen Coastguard were co-ordinating assistance to the offshore supply vessel the 628 GT Vos Vedette after her crew reported a fire in the engine room at around 8.15 pm this evening. She was about 60 nautical miles offshore at the time and had reported the fire to Aberdeen Coastguard on 2182 kHz. The crew of 12 reported that the vessel had been disabled and that a CO2 agent had been released into the engine space to douse the fire. The crew were conducting boundary cooling at the time. There were no reported injuries. The weather at the time were westerly winds of around 20 knots with a 5 metre swell and the crew also reported that they were in the middle of heavy snow showers which was limiting their communications abilities. By 8.50 pm the skipper confirmed to Aberdeen Coastguard that the fire had been extinguished, and by 9.50 pm the engineer had confirmed he had managed to restart one of the engines.
