At least three people died in the explosion of the oil storage and production vessel, FPSO Trinity Spirit, last week while four more crew were still missing, the operating company said in a statement on Monday.
"We can confirm today that two further dead bodies were discovered on the deck of the vessel in the afternoon of the same Sunday," Nigeria's Shebah Exploration & Production Company Ltd (SEPCOL) said.
"Our priority remains focused towards establishing the whereabouts, safety, and security of the four crew members still missing."
