- The inquiry found gas entered compartment 3M from the aft sewage-treatment plant, reaching 68 ppm.
- The captain, informed only after berthing because a watchkeeper failed to issue a warning, received only paracetamol from medical staff who omitted exams and delayed higher-level care for over 24 hours, after which sailors reported symptoms linked to a neurofunctional or PTSD response.
