Life Saving Appliances

This course covers the theoretical knowledge of the STCW Fast Rescue Boat course.

Lifeboats are key pieces of safety equipment that are mandatory under the SOLAS regulations. They must be carefully maintained and all onboard need to be sure of how to operate them in an emergency.

Man Overboard is one of the various emergencies that can occur onboard ships, and like every other emergency, a man overboard requires immediate and precise intervention. To ensure that action is taken without delay in such an event, every crew member onboard is trained in man overboard procedures and drilled on their specific duties at regular intervals as required by SOLAS. The correct and timely application of the procedures to be followed will in return increase the probability of a successful recovery and decrease the probability of casualty.

A free-floating mechanism for liferafts is defined by SOLAS as a must-have onboard and will, if correctly installed, release a vessel's life rafts in the event a ship would go under before a controlled evacuation was possible.
The Hammar H20 Hydrostatic Release Unit is a free-floating mechanism for liferafts with more than 35 years of proven track record.

Liferafts are key pieces of safety equipment that are mandatory under the SOLAS regulations. They must be carefully maintained and all onboard need to be sure of how to launch them in an emergency.

Under SOLAS requirements, vessels must complete drills on board at regular intervals to ensure that personnel and equipment are ready for emergencies that may develop. STCW amendments also require training to be conducted onboard to allow seafarers to renew their STCW certification without the need to complete the full course again every 5 years. Making the drills effective and useful is, therefore, a priority for vessel managers and Masters to ensure the training is relevant, no time is wasted and the seafarers receive value from the exercises.

Welcome to an introductory course on container firefighting where you will learn about different container types, what classes of cargo are stored inside them and how to boundary cool in the case of a fire on board.

The course covers a wide range of drills and exercises mandated by various conventions such as SOLAS, MARPOL, ISM Code, ISPS Code, and STCW Convention and Code. These drills aim to ensure the safety, security, and environmental protection of ships and their crew members.

This course offers a comprehensive insight into the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), a critical global maritime safety treaty. Established under the International Maritime Organization (IMO), SOLAS aims to set minimum safety standards for the construction, equipment, and operation of ships. By participating in this course, attendees will gain valuable knowledge on various SOLAS chapters, their relationship with the STCW Convention, IMO Model Courses, and ISM Code, ultimately enhancing their understanding of maritime safety.
