The 2005 built massive tanker vessel which is anchored in the Gulf of Pariah and used to store oil is listing severely and can capsize.
Press agency Reuters reported that Venezuelan state oil company (PDVSA) owned vessel has problems with valves.
Towards the end of August, the ship’s crew had already reported these problems after flooding in the engine room.
