maritime official at Suez said: "We lost all contact with the ship shortly after it left the Saudi port."

The liner disappeared shortly after sailing from the Saudi Arabian port of Dubah and should have arrived at the Egyptian port of Safaga at 3am today.

Its last position on the radar screens was 62 miles from Dubah.

David Osler, industrial editor at Lloyd's List, said: "It does look like we are fearing the worst."

He described the ship as a roll on, roll off passenger ferry dating back to the 1970s.

He said: "The problem is with this type of ferry is they only need a relatively small amount of water to get on board to start an uncontrollable rocking effect that capsizes the ship."

The ship is owned Egyptian company El Salaam Maritime Transport.

Most of the passengers are believed to be Egyptians working in Saudi Arabia.

A sister ship, the Al Salam 95, sank in the Red Sea in October after a collision with a Cypriot
