Thank you for all your information - we already found a photo of the Omer/former Semaid.
Do you have any contact details to the Danish coastguard involved in the rescue that you could give us?
Thanks a lot!

Omer n is grounded, and the divers are send in. one man is found dead. the ship was run, by a turkish crew, and one of the suvivers said that it's not possible that the cargo has moved, in the cargohold. and the danish coast guard says that a collision isn't possible either
may god be with the rest of the crew.

divers was late night sent into the hull, but had to stop the operation cause the weather. A switzer salvage tug, said that it was only possible to enter the hul, early this morning. Switzer will try to roll over the ship a little easily can enter the hull. One of the survivers said that the captain also is dead, until now is two men is registred dead. the captain and the chief-engineer.

may god be with them all.
