Baku / 12.05.19 / Turan: One of 14 victims of the explosion and fire on the Azerbaijani pipe-laying vessel Israfil Huseynov in the Caspian Sea died on Sunday.
This was reported by the company Saipem, which rented the vessel.

The fire on the Israfil Huseynov ship leased by Saipem to work at the Azerbaijani Shah Deniz gas condensate field in the Caspian Sea occurred on May 8 in the evening as a result of equipment problems in the pipe-laying zone.

The condition of three of them was assessed by doctors as critical. -06D--
