A Philippine seafarer has reportedly gone missing from a John Fredriksen-owned kamsarmax bulker while it was anchored off the US.

The unnamed chief mate is thought to have gone missing from Golden Ocean’s 82,188-dwt Golden Jake (built 2011) on Thursday evening.

The US Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound command center watchstanders received a call from the captain of the Golden Jake, reporting their chief mate missed the evening muster held at 18:00 on Thursday.
