The vessel is reported missing, with the last contact on 21 October 2006, and its last known in the vicinity of Al Had, Oman. The owner reports the master and crew have taken over the vessel with intent of selling the cargo and sailing to South Korea. The Master is purportedly negotiating with owner payment for return of the vessel. I guess the crew can't eat the oil The Owner believes vessel may still be IVO Omani coast.
