Déjà-vu: Fast genau ein Jahr zuvor, am 25. Dezember 2024, wurde das Stromkabel Estlink 2 beschädigt. Der Öltanker “Eagle S” der russischen Schattenflotte soll seinen Anker 90 km über den Meeresboden gezogen haben. Reparaturkosten: 60 Mio. Euro! ⚡💰 #EagleS #Estlink2 3/

Stromkabel in der Ostsee: "Estlink 2" ist wieder am Netz
Ende 2024 hatte der Tanker "Eagle S" das Ostseekabel "Estlink 2" beschädigt. Schneller als gedacht konnten die Reparaturen jetzt abgeschlossen werden. Ermittler vermuten weiterhin Sabotage.
Finland's customs office said on Thursday it had no grounds to pursue a criminal investigation against the crew of the Eagle S oil tanker over the ship's Russian fuel cargo.
Crew on board the Eagle S oil tanker accused of sabotaging undersea power and communications cables in the Baltic Sea were poised to cut other cables and pipelines when Finnish authorities boarded the vessel last month, the head of the Finnish investigation said.

A Finnish telecoms firm says it's repaired two cables under the Baltic Sea that were severed last month. The company's security chief says they appear to have been cut by an anchor. Other cables that were damaged in the same area, including a major power link #Estlink2 , have not yet been fixed.
Finland's coast guard has seized a vessel suspected of deliberately cutting the cables. The EU has linked the ship, the Eagle S, to Russia, accusing it of carrying embargoed Russian oil.
Finnish #telecommunications operator Elisa has repaired two data cables between #Finland and #Estonia that were damaged on Christmas Day. A Russian "shadow fleet" tanker is suspected of damaging four data cables and the #EstLink2 power cable in the incident.

The outage of the #EstLink2 power cable between #Estonia and #Finland is likely to raise #electricity #prices in Estonia, according to #energy experts. The outage may cost an additional EUR 100mn to the Estonian #economy.

Fingrid, Finland’s transmission system operator, submitted to the Helsinki District Court an application to seize the Eagle S oil tanker to secure its claim for damages related to the breakdown of EstLink 2 connection.
The government in #Estonia may allocate EUR 100mn to expedite the building of Eesti Energia's new gas power plant in #Narva. Also, the government is discussing other measures to mitigate the expected increase in #electricity prices following the Russian sabotage on the #EstLink2 power cable.

#Traficom boarded Eagle S to perform port state control (PSC) inspection. Courses of action Traficom may impose on a ship with deficiencies (in order of ascending gravity) are:
- Deficiencies can be rectified within 14 days for minor infractions.
- Under specific conditions, deficiencies can be rectified when the ship arrives at the next port.
- Deficiencies must be rectified before the ship can depart the port.
- Detention of the ship occurs.
Finnish police suspects 7 out of the 20 crew members of the Eagle S oil tanker of crimes and placed them under a travel ban.
Eagle S is suspected of dragging it's anchors in the Baltic Sea and damaging the Estlink 2 underwater electricity cable and 4 fiber optic cables.

https://sailing-dulce.nl/home/article-8740 #kerstlunch #hitster #estlink2 Zondag 29-12-2024 Onze reis naar Amsterdam ging vlot. We liepen met de twee Ikea-tassen, waarin drie kerstpakketten, naar het station waar juist de snelbus naar Utrecht kwam aanrijden. Om 11.22 de Intercity richting Enkhuizen; op Amsterdam Amstel eruit. Daar raakten we in de war, we dachten dat je voor de metro het station uit moest maar die stond gewoon op hetzelfde perron tegenover onze trein. Het kostte even tijd voordat we dat doorhad..

Finland is flying investigators to the Eagle S, and is interrogating the crew. The officials have confiscated the communications devices and storage media (cellphones, tablets, laptops, external storage devices I presume) and will perform #forensics on them. Several crew members are suspected of aggravated criminal mischief. If convicted the penalty ranges from 2 to 10 years imprisonment.
