Subic Bay Trans-shipment

Subic Bay is a busy place right now with four Vale ships deployed for the trans-shipment operation.

Here's a quick head count of who's who...

Today's AIS plot shows Vale Brasil, Ore Fabrica and Ore Pantanal rafted up to tranship ore to 'Pantanal.


868,000 DWT of bulk carriers triple banked - a world first?
