Liquefaction of unprocessed mineral ores - Iron ore fines and nickel ore
Year: 2012 Language: english Author: Martin Jonas Genre: Handbook Publisher: Gard AS Format: PDF Quality: eBook Number of pages: 26 Description: Liquefaction of mineral ores, resulting in cargo shift and loss of stability, has been a major cause of marine casualties for many decades. Recent problems, already leading to several total losses this year, have primarily involved the carriage of unprocessed natural ores such as iron ore fines from India and nickel ore from Indonesia, the Philippines and New Caledonia. The main cause of casualties and near misses is the poor compliance of shippers with the testing and certification requirements that are designed to ensure that cargoes are loaded only if the moisture content is sufficiently low to avoid liquefaction occurring during the voyage

Description: Liquefaction of mineral ores, resulting
in cargo shift and loss of stability,
has been a major cause of marine
casualties for many decades. Recent
problems, already leading to several
total losses this year, have primarily
involved the carriage of unprocessed
natural ores such as iron ore fines from
India and nickel ore from Indonesia,
the Philippines and New Caledonia.
The main cause of casualties and
near misses is the poor compliance
of shippers with the testing and
certification requirements that are
designed to ensure that cargoes are
loaded only if the moisture content is
sufficiently low to avoid liquefaction
occurring during the voyage
