BP planning manager Kenneth Whiteside, 59, from Fife, was among five whose inquests were opened and adjourned yesterday by West Sussex coroner Penelope Schofield.
The Foreign Office refused to comment on the state of repatriation for any other Britons killed by Islamic militants who stormed the remote In Amenas gas plant, deep in the Sahara desert.
