Around five to eight pirates armed with guns boarded a tug and barge underway. They took the crew hostage and secured them in the toilet and mess room. They then navigated the vessel and the next day rendezvoused with an off-take barge into which the cargo was stolen. The pirates then escaped. The crew managed to release themselves and noticed that the cargo was stolen, and navigation equipment damaged. Fortunately, the crew managed to sail to a safe anchorage.
