Best Answer

The vessel was towed away from the pollution site and repaired in San Diego, California. It was renamed the Exxon Mediterranean, then SeaRiver Mediterranean in the early 1990s. It served in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia before being removed from service in 2002. In 2005 it returned to service as the Mediterranean and then in 2008 was renamed the Dong Fang Ocean when it was purchased by a Hong Kong-based shipping company and refitted as an ore carrier.
