HMCS Preserver (AOR 510)
HMCS ''Preserver'' is a Canadian auxiliary oiler replenishment of the Royal Canadian Navy commissioned in 1970. Built in Saint John, New Brunswick, she underwent a major refit in 2005, after the ship was plagued by electrical problems. With these difficulties unresolved, ''Preserver'' was withdrawn from sea-going service in 2014.
==Service history==
''Preserver'', the second replenishment oiler auxiliary, was built by Saint John Shipbuilding in Saint John, New Brunswick. Commissioned at Saint John in 1970, she was assigned to the east coast fleet. She was the second ship to bear the name ''Preserver''. Commissioned 11 July 1942, the first served in the Second World War as a Fairmile motor launch base supply ship under the East Coast's 'Newfoundland Force' and was paid off 6 November 1945.
In 1971 she carried the Governor-General of Canada, Roland Michener to Europe, hosting the heads of state of Belgium and Netherlands. In June of that year, the ship took part in the first-ever refueling of a hydrofoil at sea, replenishing . As part of Canada's contribution to the UN peacekeeping force in Cyprus, ''Preserver'' supported Canadian troops through 1974-75. The ship served Canada's fleet in domestic and international exercises in the 1980s and 1990s. In December 1992, she took part in Operation Deliverance, the ill-fated Canadian Forces operation that turned into the Somalia Affair. In 1994, ''Preserver'' was part of the multinational force enforcing sanctions on the former Yugoslavia. The vessel returned to that force in May-June 1995. In September 1998, she was part of the Canadian naval response to the crash of Swissair Flight 111 off the coast of Nova Scotia. The ship sailed for Afghanistan in October 2001, as part of Operation Apollo, Canada's initial response to the Global War on Terrorism. She returned from that duty in April 2002.〔
''Preserver'' underwent a major refit in 2005, after the ship was plagued by electrical problems. However, electrical problems remained unresolved for both ships in the class. In 2010 while refueling she spilled several cubic metres of fuel in Halifax harbour. On 4 November 2011, after returning from sea trials, the ship smashed into a dock in Halifax harbour, suffering damage above the waterline on the starboard bow. The commanding officer of the ship was later removed from his post as a result of the crash. The cost of the repairs to the damage sustained during the incident was $497,442.
