Two separate accidents occurred at Samsung Heavy Industries’ Ningbo yard in China on Saturday leading to the death of two workers.

One worker got an electric shock when operating a cutting machine and died after being sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. Two hours after the incident, another worker fainted when he was taking a rest after completing some grinding work on a ship block. He died shortly after, with the cause of death unknown.

Authorities have ordered to suspend all operations at the yard and investigations are currently underway.
