Regardless of Vessel
or Offshore Installation size the sea is unpredictable and without warning
can place the lives of all crewmembers in jeopardy. In addition, unforeseen
accidents such as fires, equipment malfunctions and capsizing can trigger
an emergency evacuation of personnel.
It is vital for crews
to understand and train in the use of marine distress signals; from Radio
Communication and visual markers such as Flares, Smokes or Rockets, to
electronic locators such as EPIRBs and SARTs. In this two-part, 25 minute
program, maritime employees will learn how to rapidly notify Search and
Rescue authorities to their emergency and assist them by quickly guiding
rescue craft to their location. This is vital compliance training that
can literally save the crew's life!
