EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION ON SHIP

Always a ship was potentially dangerous place for the people on board. The situations very often arise when crew has to deal with an emergency to save their vessel or human’s life. Emergency organization (E/O) is introduced on board each ship. The ship’s emergency organization comprises all members of the ship’s crew. The E/O is centered on an emergency squad which comprises a number of selected officers who will take any actions necessary and possible to deal with an emergency. Each designated member of such squad is assigned to special duties. Although their actions are largely governed by the circumstances but their principal functions are to provide technical support. On sounding the emergency station signal or fire alarm the emergency squad shall muster at the emergency headquarters from which position they will collect necessary equipment.

The Chief Officer is normally in charge of emergency squad when tackling emergences and the Second Engineer takes charge of emergences within machinery spaces. The members of squad are chosen from the most experienced and suitable officers.

The information about location of emergency equipment, emergency station signals, emergency instructions and details of drills are specified on the emergency plan (E/P). This plan includes the duties of each crew member in case of emergency. The EP is worked out by the Chief Officer and confirmed by the Master. Each crew member should now all types of alarm signals and what he must do in case of emergency.

Alarm systems are installed all over the ship’s systems and machinery to notify the crew on board about the dangerous situation that can arise on the ship. Alarm on board ships are audible as well as visual to ensure that a person can at least listen to the audible alarm when working in a area where seeing a visual alarm is not possible and vice versa.

It is a normal practice in the international maritime industry to have alarm signal for a particular warning similar in all the ships, no matter in which seas they are sailing or to which company they belongs to. This commonness clearly helps the seafarer to know and understand the type of warning or emergency well and help to tackle the situation faster.
