Cargoes that are liable to liquefy in bulk carriers primarily include certain types of mineral concentrates, like nickel ore and iron ore fines, as well as some agricultural products such as certain grains. These materials can retain moisture, leading to increased fluidity and the risk of shifting during transport, which can destabilize the vessel. Proper loading, monitoring of moisture content, and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to mitigate the risks associated with these cargoes.
