The 'Fremantle Highway' is already very close to the Eemshaven port. We can follow the ships movements by tracking the tug boats, as its own transponder failed days ago during the fire.

E.g this tug boat 'Waterlines' https://www.vesselfinder.com/?imo=9881770 is in a group with other tug boats, pollution control vessels and law enforcement. They are accompanying the burning ship to its destination.
