History

The vessel was built for the Directorate General of Coastal Safety at Sefine Shipyard in Altınova, Yalova Province, Turkey. [4] She was named Nene Hatun (1857–1955), a Turkish folk heroine, who became known for fighting in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878, [5] Costing €31.14 million, she was launched with a ceremony held on 24 October 2014. [4] She was commissioned on 27 May 2015. [6] [7] She is the first emergency response vessel of Turkey. [3]

Nene Hatun has an overall length of 87.80 m (288.1 ft) , a beam of 19.50 m (64.0 ft), is 8.70 m (28.5 ft) high and has a draft of 7.40 m (24.3 ft). [2] [4] [6] She is powered by four Hyundai 9H 32/40 engines with 4,500 kW (6,000 hp). The total installed power is 18,000 kW (24,000 hp). She features an emergency generator MAN D2842LE201 of 528 kW (708 hp). [2] The vessel has 18 kn (33 km/h; 21 mph) max. and 16 kn (30 km/h; 18 mph) cruise speed, [8] [7] and a range of 5,375 nmi (9,954 km; 6,185 mi). [2] She is operated by a crew of 45, and is capable of accommodating up to 20 marine accident victims. [6]

The vessel's services are marine salvage, towing up to 205.4 t (202.2 long tons; 226.4 short tons), fire fighting (FiFi III), diving Services, dynamic positioning (Kongsberg DP2) services, victim accommodation, marine pollution detection and fighting, marine pollution analysis, helicopter service, offshore control and command as well as stand-by service at all weather and sea conditions.

Service history

As of summer 2021, Nene Hatun has accomplished 25 total operations of diverse nature from her commissioning in 2015. [11]

On 28 January 2021, she participated in a salvage operation for M/V Petra Star, a Russian bulk carrier in ballast en route from Istanbul to Port Kavkaz, which ran aground due to engine failure in stormy weather conditions at the northern end of Istanbul Strait in Black Sea. [11] [12]

By March 2021, it was announced that the emergency response ship was ready to take part in the salvage operation for the container ship Ever Given, which blocked the Suez Canal after grounding. [13]

By early August 2021, she was deployed from Istanbul to the Ören neighborhood of the Milas district in Muğla Province, southwestern Turkey, [10] where ongoing wildfires jeopardized the Yeniköy power station. She was moored 300 m (980 ft) offshore to intervene when necessary. [8] [14]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Emergency tow vessel</span> Type of ship used for towing disabled vessels across high seas to safe waters

An emergency tow vessel, also called emergency towing vessel, (ETV) is a multi purpose boat used by state authorities to tow disabled vessels on high seas in order to prevent dangers to man and environment. The disabled vessel is either towed to a safe haven or kept in place against wind and current until commercial assistance by tug boats has arrived on site or until it has been repaired to the extent of being able to manoeuvre on its own. The need for ETVs as a preventive measure has arisen since the number of available commercial salvage tugs was reduced while potential dangers from individual vessels have increased. E.g. Spain has fourteen, Turkey has eleven, Germany operates eight, Norway has seven, France has five, Sweden three and the Netherlands, Poland, South Africa, Iceland and Finland each have one official emergency tug boat. Australia also operates emergency response vessels. The United Kingdom's four strong ETV fleet was to be disbanded in September 2011 due to budget cuts but the two vessels operating in Scottish waters received an extension of contract until the end of 2011.
