The Japanese-owned ship MV Wakashio had been shattered on a reef at Pointe d'Esny causing the huge oil spill in the area which is an internationally classified ecological gem.
Luckily, Pravind Jugnauth, the prime minister of Mauritius, has announced that almost all of the remaining fuel oil in the ship has been pumped out which should prevent another spill from occurring.
The fuel has now been transferred to shore by helicopter and to another ship owned by the same Japanese firm, Nagashiki Shipping.
