The latest imagery, taken on August 27, shows that the wreck of the VLCC Caroline Bezengi remains intact. The tanker is still leaking oil, but the leakage appears to be no worse than it was when last seen in imagery on August 22. The Caroline Bezengi has been beached on rocks off the southwest tip of Jazirat Al Qibliyyah, one of the Hallaniyat Islands off the coast of Dhofar in the southwest of Oman, since about June 23.
