ARX Mouldings are following new reports of a tanker being boarded.
Initial reports show the Tanker was boarded by three people while underway (01 15.10N 104 03.65E) and this was later changed to eight perpetrators while underway (01 14.64N 104 02.58E) along the Eastbound lane of Traffic Separation Scheme, Singapore Strait on 15 Oct at 0040 (UTC +8).
At this moment we are unclear if this is the same incident.
All vessels in the vicinity are advised to exercise caution and to report any suspicious sighting and incident timely to the local authority or IFC.
ARX Mouldings recommends following best management practices and installing Anti-Piracy Barriers and Water Cannons to prevent boardings from taking place. To find out more about the ARX ABaC System the Evictor Water Cannon visit the product pages http://www.arxmouldings.com/arx-abac
