Possibly to ballast the ship?. after all if it wasn't a reason like that you would expct them to run down the fuel prior to refit.
If it’s shallow enough it might prevent a capsize
That's what I thought as they said it had a list on. At least if its sitting on the bottom it is stable as you rectify the problem, it could also be possible to refloat it in the future
