Karina C report published
Fatal accident during cargo operations on Karina C while in Seville, Spain.
Our accident investigation report into a fatal crush incident on the general cargo vessel Karina C on 24 May 2019, is now published.
Statement from the Chief Inspector of Marine Accidents
Ship바카라 사이트™s decks are dangerous places and this accident could have been avoided if personnel operating Karina C바카라 사이트™s deck that day had adhered to established safe working practices. The limited space available and ambient noise on deck mean that travelling gantry cranes, common on many operators바카라 사이트™ vessels, can be particularly hazardous. Recently they have been involved in a number of fatal accidents and the MAIB is currently investigating another tragic death in similar circumstances. The accident on Karina C is a further case where excess alcohol consumption almost certainly contributed to the death of a seafarer.
