On 28 January 2021, she participated in a salvage operation for M/V Petra Star, a Russian bulk carrier in ballast en route from Istanbul to Port Kavkaz, which ran aground due to engine failure in stormy weather conditions at the northern end of Istanbul Strait in Black Sea.[11][12]
By March 2021, it was announced that the emergency response ship was ready to take part in the salvage operation for the container ship Ever Given, which blocked the Suez Canal after grounding.[13]
By early August 2021, she was deployed from Istanbul to the Ören neighborhood of the Milas district in Muğla Province, southwestern Turkey,[10] where ongoing wildfires jeopardized the Yeniköy power station. She was moored 300 m (980 ft) offshore to intervene when necessary.[8][14]
