All fuel from the RFNS Puamau has been removed as of today.

According to the Fiji Navy, the salvage re-assessments are currently being conducted in collaboration with the Navy salvage team supported by RFNS Savenaca and Navy divers.

They say since the grounding, only the stern compartment experienced water ingress, which has been isolated and currently being managed and the vessel’s position and stability on the reef's outer edge slope continues to be monitored by the Navy salvage teams.

The Navy says weather and tides continue to be factored into the recovery efforts and are being closely monitored by the planning and salvage team as changes in weather will impact recovery timelines.
