According to the Ship Owners' Federation (SOF), a rain record was reported, resulting in the suspension of loading activities. It is important to ensure that hatch covers are closed during rainfall to prevent rainwater from being absorbed by the exposed upper surface, which is shaped and sized like the hatch square. The potential damage caused by rainwater absorption would primarily occur under the hatch square area.
