Three people found unconscious after gas leak in the boat at Bryggen – Dagbladet.no

- We got a message at 12:31. There are three people aboard a pleasure boat at the wharf in Bergen, everyone is unconscious, says operations manager Arve Samsonsen Dagbladet.

– There is talk of a woman and two men. All are in their 20s and a resident of Oslo, says police efforts leader Kjetil Hoff to Bergens Tidende.

According to police, the suspect carbon monoxide poisoning.

The condition of the three is unknown, but they were alive when they were carried away.

– The first message went out that there were two people, but our emergency manager says they were three on board. Everyone is transported to hospital, says Hartvigsen told the newspaper.

There have been a gas leak on board. The fire department has now put on a fan boat.

– We have noted that the CO 2 leaked, says Hartvigsen.

Although carbon dioxide is not toxic, a CO 2 level of around 10 percent can be fatal in a short time.

– The last few were in contact with them was around midnight. It is uncertain how long they have been there, says Hoff to Bergen newspaper.

According to Norwegian Health Informatics is carbon monoxide poisoning by accident a rare cause of death in Norway, because we essentially have electricity as heating source.

The contamination occurs when coal discus (CO) block hemoglobin and displaces oxygen. Thus oxygen deficiency in the tissue.

During the acute phase damage oxygen lack heart and brain.
