Emergency preparedness is based on two different tasks: Training and Response.

Training will be provided on board by the Safety Officer - on shore by the DPA/CSO. 

Due to recent refugee issues in the MED area, we provide the official IMO guideline to the ships command.  

Reporting of Accidents:

• To the company (see SMS 9 and Action Plans below)
• Additonally acc to the relevant Flag State below! 

Flag of Antigua and Barbuda Reporting Requirements

• Reporting Info (Read Me);
• RLM-108 Maritime Regulations;
• RLM-109 REPORT OF VESSEL CASUALTY OR ACCIDENT;

For Response, two printed manuals are provided to each ship:

(General design for all company ships, the printed ECP/AP provides information's and required steps for several emergency situations. It is located on the bridge)
