The Dali container ship belonged to Singapore-based Grace Ocean Pte Ltd
The ship belonged to Singapore-based Grace Ocean Pte Ltd, which is owned by a Hong Kong group, and was carrying containers for Danish shipping giant Maersk.
Synergy Marine, the Singaporean company that operates the Dali, stated that it was being piloted by two Baltimore port pilots at the time of the collision.
According to the port of Singapore, there were 22 crew members on board, and no one was injured, according to Synergy, which also reports that no leaking occurred.
