Workers were cleaning up the beach after an oil spill caused by a dredger hitting a stationary tanker blackened part of Singapore’s southern coastline, including the popular resort island of Sentosa.
The spill has sparked concerns it may threaten marine wildlife, as a clean-up operation got underway on Sunday.
The Netherlands-flagged dredger Vox Maxima struck the Singaporean fuel supply ship Marine Honor on Friday.
It damaged the tank on the Marine Honor, which leaked oil into the sea.
Singapore’s Maritime and Port Authority said in a statement late Saturday the oil leak from the vessel had been contained, and that the oil that escaped from the damaged tanker had been treated with dispersants.
