Liquefied nickel-ore cargoes accounted for all 44 deaths among dry-bulk sailors in the final three months of 2010, Rob Lomas, Intercargo’s secretary general, told an industry briefing in London today. A further 22 died since then. Intercargo set out guidelines today for distribution to 300 vessel owners worldwide before new international safety rules are implemented in 2015, Lomas said.
