Milford Haven was a VLLC tanke was built
in Cadiz in Spain, and was launched in 1973 . She sailed
in different routes in the Persian Gulf before she in the
late 1980's was chartered by the Cypriot company Troodos
Shipping. 11. April 1991 she laid outside Genova and
loaded oil when suddenly the cargo caught fire. Five men
immediately perished in the fire and two days later the
burning wreck had to be taken under tow towards shore to
ease the rescue work and limit the oil spill. She broke in
two parts on the third day and the bow disappeared in the
deep, while the rest sank later on a depth of 33 to 80
meter outside Arenzano.
