When compared to other Hull and Machinery (H&M) claims the frequency of engine room fires is low but the average cost is among the highest - USD 1,850,000 per occurrence - compared with USD 320,000 for H&M claims in general. Engine rooms on ships have all the ingredients for a fire – oxygen, heat and flammable liquids under pressure.
