The floating storage and regasification unit Energos Winter was struck. Fire spread to the nearby LNG carrier GasLog Salem. Fires out. No casualties in that product. Both ships moved offshore. The port kept limited operations. No claim of responsibility in the JMIC text.

The same JMIC table lists UKMTO 099-26 and 100-26 as 26 July, names withheld, Bermuda-flag and Marshall Islands-flag LNG carriers. The cabinet line in the same note is 29 July. Those dates are not merged.

The Straits Times (Reuters), 30 July, prints IMO 9256614 for ENERGOS WINTER and IMO 9638915 for GASLOG SALEM. Energos Infrastructure owner. Wilhelmsen Ship Management on technical and commercial ops. Egypt’s petroleum ministry, in that piece, confirmed a fire and did not name a drone.

Maritime Executive, Damietta Port Authority stills and SMIT: Energos Winter left the inner berth the afternoon of the hit and grounded just outside the entrance, about 1,000–2,000 yards off. SMIT and the port authority refloated her on 6 August. Six tugs, 360 tonnes bollard pull, pull astern off the channel. At about 2000 she went to anchor about 10 nm out. Fourteen hours.

Khaleej Times (Reuters), 1 September: Petroleum Minister Karim Badawi said the Damietta regasification vessel should resume in the fourth quarter. He said the damaged ship did not hit Egypt’s gas market.

EnterpriseAM, same day, citing Asharq Business and a government official: two repair tracks. Petrojet in Egypt, about six weeks. A yard in Turkey, about one month. About 70,000 m³ still on board, to be offloaded at Ain Sokhna or Damietta first. A second leased unit, about 150,000 m³, expected at Ain Sokhna in September beside Gaslog Salem, lease printed at about USD 75,000 a day. No Energos company statement in this pack.

Kpler: Hl Fortuna left Damietta laden after the hit. Gaslog Salem had been due to start as FSU for Egas on 1 August.
