INTERNATIONAL SAFETY GUIDE FOR OIL TANKERS & TERMINALS

Local operating procedures for use in an emergency should be available
to all concerned, and thorough training given in their use. The terminal
---ใช้เพื่อการศึกษาเท่านั้น---
emergency plan should be exercised regularly.

Records should be kept and deficiencies or lessons learnt should be

recorded and formally followed up.

20.3 Definition and Hierarchy of Emergencies

20.3.1 General
Whether a certain event would represent an ‘emergency’ or an
‘operational incident’ that requires swift action will depend on local
circumstances. For instance, it may be possible for a large terminal, with
adequate equipment and manpower, to deal with a local fire or similar
event without calling the full terminal emergency plan into operation. The
same incident at a small terminal might be classified as an emergency
requiring activation of the emergency plan.

The following guidelines are not intended to be prescriptive, but are
intended to provide a framework or starting point that can be customised
to suit a particular terminal. For terminals that already have emergency
plans in place, the guidance provides a check-list against which the
ึ
existing plans can be assessed. It should be noted that the guidelines
only provide a minimum basis for developing and sustaining an effective
terminal emergency plan.

20.3.2
Before establishing a terminal emergency plan, a study should be made
of the terminal, available resources (both during and outside normal
working hours) and the potential emergencies that are considered
possible at the location. Based on this study, a hierarchy of emergencies
should be established, for example:
Local emergency.

Terminal emergency.
Major emergency.

20.3.2.1 Local Emergency

A local emergency is one of minor consequence for life and
property that can be dealt with locally, for example at the jetty or
on board a ship, by available staff, with or without assistance.
Such an emergency does not normally influence operations in
other parts of the terminal or in the port.

20.3.2.2 Terminal Emergency

A terminal emergency is one that is more complex or of a larger
size or scope that requires an emergency plan to be initiated. It
influences operations in the whole terminal, or has the potential to
do so, may affect more than one ship and may influence the port
environment.
