The 110 meter long self-propelled barge Singa ran aground on the Rhine near Basel, Switzerland. The Singa had suffered engine failure and went adrift before it ran onto an embankment. The Singa requested assistance and a few hours later a tug arrived on scene and refloated the barge. Both vessels proceeded to Basel. No reports of injuries, damage or pollution released.
