Scenes from ’Asia’s Titanic’

In partnership with the National Museum of the Philippines, Vulcan Inc.’s research vessel, the Petrel, surveyed the shipwrecks of the M/V Doña Paz and the M/T Vector in Tablas Strait in April 2019. More than 4,300 people perished in the 1987 sinking - which ranks as the deadliest maritime disaster in peacetime and has been called “Asia’s Titanic.“ Here are scenes from the M/V Petrel’s survey.
