MANAGEMENT OF SAFETY AND EMERGENCIES

Emergency Party
This group should be under the command of a senior officer and should
---ใช้เพื่อการศึกษาเท่านั้น---
assess the emergency and report to the command centre on the
situation, advising what action should be taken and what assistance
should be provided, either from on board or, if the ship is in port, from
งานห้องสมุด ศูนย์ฝกพาณิชย์นาวี
ashore.
Backup Emergency Party
The backup emergency party, under the command of an officer, should
stand by to assist the emergency party as instructed by the command
centre and should provide backup services, e.g. equipment, stores,
medical services, including cardio-pulmonary resuscitation etc.

Engineering Group
This group should be under the command of the Chief Engineer or the
Senior Engineering Officer on board, and should provide emergency
assistance as instructed by the command centre. The prime responsibility
for dealing with any emergency in the main machinery spaces will
probably rest with this group. It may be called on to provide additional
manpower elsewhere.

The plan should ensure that all arrangements apply equally well, whether
the ship is in port or at sea.

9.9.2.3 Preliminary Action
The person who discovers the emergency must raise the alarm and pass
on information about the situation to the officer on duty who, in turn, must
alert the emergency organisation. While this is being done, those on the
scene should attempt immediate measures to control the emergency until
the emergency organisation takes effect. Each group in the emergency
organisation should have a designated assembly point, as should those
persons not directly involved as members of any group. Personnel not
directly involved should stand by to act as required.

9.9.2.4 Ship’s Fire Alarm Signal
When a ship is in port, the sounding of the ship’s fire alarm system
should be supplemented by a series of long blasts on the ship’s whistle,
each blast being not less than 10 seconds in duration, or by some other
locally required signal.

9.9.2.5 Fire Control Plans

Fire control plans must be permanently displayed in prominent positions
showing clearly, for each deck, the location and particulars of all
fire-fighting equipment, dampers, controls etc. When the ship is in port,
these plans should also be displayed, or be readily available, outside the
accommodation block for the assistance of shore based fire-fighting
personnel.

9.9.2.6 Inspection and Maintenance
Fire-fighting equipment should always be ready for immediate use and
should be checked frequently. The dates and details of such checks
should be recorded and indicated on the appliance, as appropriate. The
inspection of all fire-fighting and other emergency equipment should be
carried out by a Responsible Officer, and any necessary maintenance
work completed without delay.
