About MV María Alejandra

MV María Alejandra was a Spanish oil tanker built in 1975 at Cádiz, Spain. She sank suddenly on high seas some 130–150 kilometres (70–81 nmi) off the coast west of Nouadhibou, Mauritania, on 11 March 1980 after several internal explosions, presumably related to malfunctions in the inert gas system. Of the 43 people aboard, 36 perished. She was the penultimate ship built by Astilleros de Cádiz, Cádiz, one of the main shipyards in Spain. Before its completion the original customer, the Italian company D'Amico Società di Navegazione, canceled the contract. Finally in 1977 she was acquired by Mar Oil, member of the Wilson Walton group, to bring oil from Ras Tanura in the Persian Gulf to refineries in Algeciras in southern Spain. During the return trip from Algeciras to Ras Tanura the ship was unloaded, in ballast.
