According to an Reuters article ( http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE63302920100405), Gilly Llewellyn, director of conservation for the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) in Australia, has raised concern that there may be a pattern of environmental disasters caused by the Chinese owners of the ship that threatens the reef. Llewellyn was quoted by Retuers saying "We are seeing a concerning pattern potentially associated with this company."
The ship Shen Neng 1 belongs to the Shenzhen Energy Group, a subsidiary of China's state-owned China Ocean Shipping (Group) Company, better known by its acronym COSCO. In 2007, COSCO was linked to a major oil spill in San Francisco bay, while last year it was tied to another in Norway, both of which damaged environmentally sensitive areas. -- Shan ( talk) 16:13, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
There is no evidence that the vessel's owner Shenzhen Energy Transport Co. Ltd (see cite in main page) is a subsidiary of COSCO. On the contrary it seems to be a subsidiary of Shenzhen Energy Co. Ltd which seems to be listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (and consequently is not a subsidiary of anyone). see www.sec.com.cn —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.239.73.75 ( talk) 15:05, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
OK, so we've got two articles. I'm not in favour of a merge of either into the other so maybe it better if we try to decide in advance what each article is trying to do.
My suggestion is that this article concentrates on the pollution / environmental issues, while the Shen Neng 1 article concentrates on the ship itself, its history, and the salvage/subsequent fate of the ship. Mjroots ( talk) 18:43, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

The date in the introductory paragraph incorrectly stated the incident occurred on 29 May. This was changed to 3 April. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.102.82.184 ( talk) 06:30, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
