Summary edit

Description
English: On 29 August 2022, a bulk carrier partially sank in the bay of Gibraltar after a collision with a gas tanker, causing an oil spill that polluted part of the surrounding coastal areas. At the moment, almost all the oil spilt has been recovered. The OS 35 bulk carrier is visible in this image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 5 September 2022. The combined use of radar and optical data acquired by Copernicus satellites provides useful information that can be applied to maritime surveillance activities around the world.
