FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin The Nautical Institute draws lessons learned from an incident where a crew member died after phosphine gas infiltrated the accommodation from a fumigated cargo hold. As edited from an official MAISSPB (Hong Kong/SAR) report published 2019, a handy-sized bulk carrier was loaded with wheat, and the cargo was fumigated after completion of loading. When the fumigation procedure was undertaken, the hatch covers, ventilators and access hatches to all five cargo holds were sealed. The vessel then departed for a trans-oceanic voyage.
