Performance of Drills and Exercises

to Prepare for Emergency Situations

1.

Purpose

In emergency situations there is usually no time to spend thinking about what actions to carry out or to read up in the emergency response manual. Therefore reactions to emergency situations are drilled / practiced.

The training aim is achieved when the staff on board and in the emergency response centre fully master the emergency response plan actions, and are familiarised with the emergency equipment.

2.

Application

This Documented Procedure applies to the Shorebased Organisation and on all ships managed / operated by Schiffahrtskontor tom Wörden GmbH & Co. KG.

Definitions and Abbreviations (refer to VA-001)

4.

Responsibilities

The shipboard management, especially the master, are responsible for the performance of emergency response exercises on board.

The Designated Person is responsible for the performance of emergency exercises in the emergency response centre.

5.

Description of Routines

  • Taking national and international regulations especially SOLAS into account, as well as Schiffahrtskontor tom Wörden GmbH & Co. KG's emergency response plans, checklists for the ships and the shorebased organisation have been worked out.

  • These checklists contain the type of drill to be performed, their frequency and the participants. By entering the date of the last drill the dates can be supervised.

  • The shipboard management organises the execution of the checklist valid for the ship. The Designated Person organises the execution of the checklist valid for the emergency response centre.

  • Drills between ship and emergency response centre will be agreed by the ship with the emergency control centre.

  • Emergency response drills taking place by reason of an external inspection (e.g. See-BG, PSC, etc.) also count.

  • Whenever possible a final debriefing answering remaining questions and for manoeuvre criticisms is an integral part of every emergency response drill.
