Aim and Objectives

The main motive for doing this project on the three topics mentioned above is to specify and analyze the Inevitable every seaman; fresh man or veteran; must face everyday at sea and, of course, to bear in mind “Safe, Secure and Clean Sea ”

Safety Management

• Nature of safety management-means managing the ship freedom from danger

• Commercialization is challenging our safety-frequent conflicts between commercial efficiency and safety

• Responsibilities of crew-everybody onboard is their own safety officer

RMS Titanic scarified for better watertight bulkheads, lifeboats for all, lifeboat drills, boat crew training, wireless installation on all passenger ships and 24 hour wireless watch keeping.

The Evolution of Safety At Sea

• Navigation-to utilize all available information an navigational aid s to ensure a safe passage.-monitoring and double-checking of every step in the progress

Safety of ship

Heavy weather

• Heavy weather-how to prepare, alleviate and overcome-aware of GM

• prevention is utmost importance• fire drills

Fire

Stability

- everybody should look after his own health and fitness-personal cleanliness-sensible diet-adequate sleep during rest periods-avoidance of alcohol

Environmental Protection

Pollution -air, water and soil pollution as the consequences of human activities

Maritime Pollution

• entry of harmful substances into the sea• some sources are land based

Pathway of Pollution• direct discharge of waste into the oceans• runoff into the waters due to rain• pollutants that are released from the

atmosphere

Pollution from Ship

General Principles:• No refuse in the sea• No oil or fuel discharge• Do not discharge a sea toilet where it will

affect water quality or harm amenity value• Keep toxic chemicals out of the marine

environment• Avoid disturbing birds and marine life• Take care when anchoring to avoid vulnerable

sea beds such as soft coral
