Many thanks Phil. Well, I saw the mistake in the media and tried to confirm the names. It is my usual way, always confirm & check first. Seems like my mistake was just when I was writing the post.
Cheers,

Yes I agree. It is my mistake, the correct name is HANJIN RIZHAO. Sorry, I think your post is a little bit rude.
In the other hand and according to the Press Release No. 3 the ABEILLE BOURBON is towing the YM URANUS bound for Brest.
Cheers,

I read the correct ship name as HANJIN RINZHAO in an Australian press report this morning. If you check MarineTraffic you can find YM URANUS and HANJIN RINZHAO in the area today. According to the described track both vessels NE bound. I think the mistake cames from the French side. If you check the first press release from the Prefecture Maritime de L'Atlantique the name given for the HANJIN ship is RICHZAD. This mistake was in the whole Spanish newspapers.
