  • Summary

  • Enclosed space accidents on ships typically involve asphyxiation, toxic gas exposure, or falls due to lack of oxygen. These incidents occur in spaces like cargo holds, ballast tanks, fuel tanks, pump rooms, and void spaces. However a recent report by the MAIB into the electrocution of a chief engineer on a super-yacht highlights some concerning issues.
    Was the poor fellow electrocuted or had he collapsed onto the terminals for some other reason. The actual sequence of events will never be fully known, but the report highlights some rarely documented risks. Barry discusses the incident, debates definitions of enclosed spaces and brings our attention to these hidden but lethal risks.
