VLSFO Oil Spill Remnants Haunt Mauritius Mangroves Three Years Later

11 hours ago

Three years after bulk carrier MV Wakashio ran aground on a coral reef off Mauritius, spilling 1000 tons of a new type of marine fuel oil, Curtin University-led research has confirmed the oil is still present in an environmentally sensitive mangrove forest close to Ramsar conservation sites.Lead researcher Dr. Alan Scarlett, from Curtin’s WA Organic and Isotope Geochemistry Center in the School of Earth and Planetary Sciences, said the chemical ‘fingerprint’ of the oil found in the mangrove sediments was a near-perfect match for the Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) spilled by the Wakashio in 2020, the first recorded spill involving this type of fuel.

Not only does this provide new energy, more importantly, a half decade of change is much easier to discern. Nowhere is this more apparent than the state of American ports today.
