The ship, which operates in the CEC service and was located roughly 1,400 nautical miles west of Europe when the incident occurred, was and is not in danger. 
 
The 336-meter-long “Bremen Express,” built in 2008, was able to continue sailing after reporting the incident to the responsible authorities. 
 
It will call at a port in the Mediterranean in order to be inspected before passing through the Suez Canal on its journey to Asia.
 
Ship is safe and continuing voyage. No persons injured. Causes to be investigated.
