Bulk carrier OS 35 beached after collision with LNG tanker ADAM LNG in Gibraltar

GIBRALTAR, Aug 30 (Reuters) - An LNG tanker "ADAM LNG" and a bulk carrier "OS 35" have collided off Gibraltar, leaving the latter beached, authorities in the British overseas territory on the southern tip of the Iberian peninsula said on Tuesday.
 
The collision forced the closure of the port for four hours, but it has fully reopened, authorities said, while booms were being deployed around the beached vessel to prevent any potential fuel spill.
 
"The Gibraltar Port Authority remains at the scene and is continuously reviewing all aspects of the situation," the Gibraltar government said in a statement.
