Work to salvage the wreck of a Thorco Shipping multi-purpose vessel (MPP) that sank off Singapore in late 2015 is set to begin this week.

The 10,385-dwt Thorco Cloud (built 2004) sank after a collision with the 37,438-dwt chemical tanker Stolt Commitment (built 2000) that —an incident that claimed the lives of six seafarers.
