United Nations Executive Director Inger Andersen warned the U.N. Security Council Thursday that a spill from an abandoned oil tanker in Yemen could produce a “catastrophe.”
In her briefing given to the U.N. Security Council Thursday, Andersen stated that a spill from the FSO Safer, an oil tanker moored off the coast of Yemen carrying 1.1 million barrels of crude oil, could produce a crisis four times as devastating as the Exxon Valdez spill in 1989.

"The condition of the aging vessel, FSO Safer – officially owned by the Government of Yemen, but controlled since 2015 by Houthi rebels - is deteriorating daily, upping the risk of an oil spill that would wreck ecosystems and livelihoods for decades, said United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) chief, Inger Andersen."
