Hot Work Incidents - Ships are hotspots for gases, oils and other explosive materials. So
when a crew member is performing hot works repairs, he or she is at risk for burns, toxic
fume inhalation or even death due to explosions. Whenever someone is working with
flammable materials, it’s imperative that proper safety procedures be followed.
Gangway Slips - Gangway slips occur for many reasons. Improper maintenance,
inattentiveness and bad weather. When they happen, crew members can find themselves laid
up for days or weeks.
Explosions - Crankcases that are not properly maintained are prone to explosion, which not
only wastes time and money in repairs, but also puts crew members at risk. Again, a planned
maintenance system can reduce the risk of explosions aboard ships.
Mooring Accidents - Winches and ropes are inherently dangerous. It only takes a second for
clothing to become tangled. Even though the journey is nearly over, it’s important for the
deck crew to remain vigilant throughout the operation to avoid a major accident.

Lifeboats - They are further classified into free-fall boats, partially-covered lifeboats and
totally-covered lifeboats. Abiding by the SOLAS convention, each vessel must have enough
lifeboats to secure 1.5 times the number of people on board.
Davit Systems - Davit systems are used for hoisting, lifting, and storing lifeboats so that they
stay secure at all times but can be easily removed when necessary.
Rescue Boats - Rescue boats are used to rescue people from drowning, near the shore, or in
the deep sea. Rescue boats are rigid, inflatable or hybrid structure with a minimum length of
3.8m. They can capacitate 6 people: 5 seated and 1 lying down.
Line-throwing devices - Line-throwing appliances are used to project a from the boat to the
person overboard or from one boat to another and pull the object in distress to safety. Per the
SOLAS regulations, every ship has to carry at least 4 line-throwing devices at all times.
GMDSS equipment - The Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) is an
internationally established set of safety procedures, types of equipment, and communication
protocols used to increase safety and make it easier to rescue distressed ships, boats and
aircraft.
Intelligent fire alarm systems - They are high-performing devices that allow for fast
detection and management of fires. The mechanism uses a series of control and relay
modules and probes and provides an advanced warning to protect lives.
Portable fire extinguishers - Portable fire extinguishers are invaluable tools to protect
seafarers in case a fire breaks out on the ocean. They are further classified based on the type
of extinguishing material used in the fire extinguisher as well as the different causes of fires.
Thermal Suits - Thermal suits are waterproof suits that protect the wearer from hypothermia
from immersion in cold water, after abandoning a sinking or capsized vessel, especially in
the open ocean. They are designed to have a conductivity of less than 0.25 W/mK and are
used to conserve body heat in extreme temperatures up to -30 degrees Celsius.
Gas detectors and spares - Gas detectors are highly useful in finding the presence of toxic
and combustible gases on ships. These are especially popular in mining, oil and gas,
chemical, and industrial sectors, where there is a high possibility of noxious leaks.
Ladders - Ladders are a means of getting on or off ships safely, along the ships’ side
whenever necessary. Various types of ladders can be used to get on or off a ship, depending
on the urgency and location.
Jason’s Cradles – Jason’s cradles are strong nets woven from cloth webbing, used to rescue
a person in distress and aid him overboard. They are available in different formats such as –
standard units, scramble nets, stretcher units, etc. These appliances are easily grabbable and
can be used to tow the person in the water towards the boat.

Life jacket (inflatable or non-inflatable) - Life jackets are designed to keep you afloat in
water. They will automatically turn you into a face-up position, keeping your mouth and
nostrils clear of the water to prevent the risk of drowning.
Life raft - It enables life rafts to turn automatically from a capsized position to an upright
position on the surface of the water, regardless of whether they inflate in the inverted position
underwater or on the surface of water, or capsize for any reason proceeding inflation.
Lifebuoy - A lifebelt, lifebuoy, water wheelie, ring buoy, life ring, lifesaver, life donut or life
preserver, also known as a “Kisbee ring,” or “Perry buoy,” is a lifesaving buoy designed to
be thrown to a person in the water, to provide buoyancy and prevent drowning.
Immersion Suit - A survival suit, or as it is more accurately and currently referred to as, an
immersion suit, is a special type of waterproof dry suit that can protect the wearer from
hypothermia if immersed in cold water, after abandoning a sinking or capsized vessel,
especially in the open ocean.
Thermal Protective Aid - A Thermal Protective Aid (TPA) is an aluminized polyethylene
suit with heat sealed seams that protects from the elements and prevents hypothermia.
V- Survival principles
Value of training and drills
11. Explain the value of training and drills
Proper preparation and knowledge can give a person a strong psychological edge to
overcome a survival situation. Training and drills are conducted on board to make sure that
all crew members constantly know their duties in an emergency. It is during drill that

move quickly through the water, kick at a more rapid pace. The act of kicking should be
enough to propel you through the water without the use of your arms.
Use your arms. Should your legs become tired or if you need an extra boost to get through
the water, incorporate the use of your arms while swimming with a life jacket. Extend your
arms out in front of your in the water. Slowly fan your arms out to your sides making a large
half-circle motion. Repeat.
20. Explain the procedures in righting an inverted life raft while wearing a lifejacket
Get onto the inverted floor of the life raft, at the gas bottles. Standing on top of the gas
bottles, heave the raft over by pulling the righting strap. Hold your arms folded above your
head as the raft comes over, to form a pocket of air. Recover your breath before swimming
out from under the raft.

Lighting: If adequate light is not available, e.g. by opening hatches or doorways, a suitable
IS torch or working light may be used.
Slips and falls: Wear appropriate anti-static non-slip shoes/boots. Pay particular attention in
the vicinity of deck machinery, where lubricants may be spilt, or if leaking cargo is
identified.
Machinery: Keep well away from moving machinery and wear high-visibility clothing and a
safety helmet. Remember: the operator may have a limited view, particularly in the hold.
You must observe any instructions from officers or crew.
Remember: in tidal basins the ship’s mooring lines may require frequent adjustment using
winches. Keep well away from these operations.
