7.8 Ice Navigation The knowledge of ice formation in the vicinity of the vessel’s passage is valuable (especially visual detection). When we have navigating in ice, there is no substitute for constant vigilance, caution and seamanship. The OOW on the bridge can be assisted by use of radar, providing he is adequately experienced in radar picture interpretation. Please bear in mind:

− Ice is a poor radar target. − Smooth sea ice returns little or no radar echo. − Rough sea ice can be detected at a range bracket between 2 to 3 nm. Return similar to

sea return but same echoes appear at each sweep − Anti-clutter control is most important radar control to be used for ice growler detection.

Shall be adjusted in a manner that growler echo intensity is stronger than sea clutter intensity.

Range of initial radar detection of ice formation: − Largely depends on nature of exposed surface and, depending on size, a growler might

Ice Navigation Guidelines

The purpose of the following guidelines is to enhance vessel safety and provide consistent application by all Masters of company vessels:

− Daylight transit only when ice formation of sufficient size and quantity to hinder vessel’s navigation is reported in or in vicinity of traffic lanes.

− Reduce speed as to ensure vessel’s manoeuvrability. This reduces possibility and extends of damage in case of accidental vessel contact with ice.

− When manoeuvring in ice, track follow-up should be, at all times, within established boundaries of Traffic separation scheme. Navigation outside these boundaries should only be considered in an emergency situation and in consultation with local port or coast authorities.

− When navigating in vicinity of ice, the Master and a lookout shall be on bridge. − The Master shall consider posting watch according to prevailing environmental

conditions and in interest of vessel’s safety. − When in escort of tugs the vessel must maintain radio contact throughout the passage

and properly inform the tugs of all major course and / or speed changes.

8.9 Command Squad - Master on bridge

The squad consists of the following members: · Master (overall responsibility); · 1 Seaman (helmsman).

This squad is always to be fully informed about the actual situation. It is responsible for the co-ordination of counteractions and the delegation of duties.

8.10 Emergency Squad - Emergency Station

The emergency squad is the main fighting unit and consists of the following members: · Chief Mate (or naut. officer) - squad leader; · 1 Engineer; if possible · 2 Ratings

Members of this squad are to be selected according to their experience, their physical and mental fitness, and communication skills. Emergency Response Procedures - Emergency Situation - general If a ship is involved in an accident or emergency situation whereby the safety of life, the ship, cargo or the marine environment is threatened, the Master has the responsibility to take whatever to minimize the risks and to save life. In deciding if assistance is required the Master should always assume, that the conditions will worsen and take whatever action is necessary as soon as possible. Masters must summon assistance in good time in the event that the ship is in danger. The Coast Guard or rescue authorities and other ships can be alerted using the "safety" or "urgency" signal depending upon the seriousness of the situation. If immediate tug assistance is required, the Master has the right to make his own terms with whoever is able to assist him. This will usually be agreement to a Lloyd's Open Form Contract (LOF 90). There is no need to sign anything initially but merely to make a verbal agreement. The fact, that an agreement has been made and with whom, should be recorded in the Deck Log Book. The Master must keep the situation under review and if it deteriorates he must take any action necessary to maintain the safety of life and of the ship. Masters should be guided at all times by their primary responsibilities which are for the safety of those entrusted to their care, the safety of the ship, the safety of the cargo and the protection of the marine environment. All other considerations are secondary to these. In a salvage situation, the Master remains in command even when salvors are appointed. While the Master and his crew should make all efforts to assist and co-operate with the salvors, the Master may override their advice if he has good cause. A detailed record of any salvage services received should be kept. In any casualty situation it is probable that the ship will be contacted in one way or other by radio, television or press representatives to answer questions or make statements. The crew is to refer all such questions and requests for statements to the Master. 8.11 Fire on board

· GENERAL · FIRE IN ENGINE ROOM · FIRE IN CARGO HOLDS · FIRE IN ACCOMODATION

General

The best means of fire-fighting on board is fire prevention and in this respect the Company stresses the importance of fire-prevention procedures to be taken and checked at all times by the Master, the Engineer, if on board, and the crew:

· elimination of all oil and fuel leakages, especially high pressure oil pipes and connections;

· clean, empty and dry bilge; · no smoking in designated areas, no smoking in bed; · proper lashing and stowage of drums containing oil and/or inflammable liquids; · proper disposal of oily rags, waste etc.; · regular inspection and repair of defective electric cables, switches, sockets, and

similar; · no misuse of electrical appliances; · no use of private electrical appliances without approval; · clean and regular secured galley filter;

In the event of fire on board, a well trained crew will react with the result, that the risk of injury and loss of life, as well as damage to the vessel and cargo, can be greatly reduced. For this reason, the Company orders the Master to verify that the crew is well trained and that the fire-fighting equipment is kept ready for use at all times. Every member of the crew must keep in mind, that the safety equipment on board the vessel is not there to satisfy the inspector but solely for the safety of the crew. In case of fire, the Master is to organize the fire fighting and has to ensure an adequate communication with the other ship staff members who themselves will lead the teams on the spot.

Fire in the engine room

· Locate source, type and nature of fire; · Immediately inform the bridge; · a fire which has just started and is still controllable should be extinguished

immediately. If the fire is out of control:

· the general- and fire alarm must be activated from the bridge from where all further actions are to be organized;

· stop main engine; · close all vents and close flaps and fire dampers; · activate Fire-alarm; · activate fast-closing valves for all tanks, pumps and purifiers, · verify that all crew members have left the engine room, · close all doors and skylights; · start emergency fire pump and emergency generator, · prepare fire hoses for surface cooling of funnel and engine casing; · prepare life-boats and all ships documents as well as personal documents of

the crew;

· inform the company and the nearest coast-guard or other similar station; · check any injuries to crew and treat them according to medical guide; · carry out regular inspections around the engine room and carefully check the

insulation attached to the engine room casing; · wait a few hours prior to re-entering the engine room; · an appropriately inspection team should enter the engine room to ascertain and

report on the extent of the damage and the general condition; · the officers / engineers shall not join this first inspection team but remain on stand-

by for any necessary rescue operations; · set down in advance the route for inspection and time spent inside the engine room.

Ensure that the team is properly equipped with sufficient life line and walkie-talkies for unrestricted communication;

· upon return to the station, the report should be filed and any further necessary action organized;

· the Company is to be informed about the results of the first inspection and the next steps to be taken should be discussed;

· the fuel tank of the emergency generator and the emergency fire pump should be regularly checked and refilled if necessary;

Accidental Oil Spillage or Leakage

Even a few drops of oil into the sea are considered as pollution and will in almost all cases result in a considerable fine. Therefore, the Master has to do their utmost to avoid any pollution. Attention is drawn to the fact, that in certain cases the Master may loose their license. In consequence, the Master and/or Engineer may be sentenced to pay a fee from their own pocket. The following precautionary measures are recommended to reduce the risk of pollution:

· regular (maybe daily) sounding of all tanks and void spaces; · bilge overboard valves must be closed and secured in this position; · bunkering procedures are to be carried out with all necessary precautions and

safety measures in place; · overfilling of bunker tanks during transferring should be avoided; · proper stowage of oily waste and rags etc.; · direct bilge pumping overboard under no circumstances; · the Master shall verify that the oily water separator and the anti-pollution equipment

is in good order, properly stowed and that sufficient stock and spares are available; · the Master shall verify that the bunkering procedure is read, understood and

followed by all crew members involved; · the Master shall verify that the SOPEP (Shipboard Oil Pollution Emergency Plan) on

board is up to date and that the crew is trained accordingly.

8.14 COLLISION The Master is responsible for taking all appropriate precautions to avoid collision, such as:

· adequate lookout under consideration of the visibility and area; · regular checking of the condition of navigational equipment; · use of up-to-date, corrected charts and the separation schemes; · NAVTEX reports to be read and evaluated by the Chief Mate; · clear watch instructions are to be given.

In the event of a collision, the following measures are to be implemented under the direction of the Master:

· verify that all crew members are on board and whether injured or not; · check the damage to the vessel; · inform the Company about details of incident, countermeasures taken, and about

assistance required; · report to the nearest coast-guard station, giving the following:

· particulars of the vessel; · weather and sea conditions; · injuries of crew (if any); · damage to own vessel; · damage to other vessel; · collect all data about the other vessel; · risk of pollution; · information about the cargo on board own vessel; · information about the cargo on board the other vessel (if available); · risk of sinking of own and/or other vessel; · possible risks when vessels are separated (fire, pollution, sinking); · condition of engine;

Furthermore the Master is responsible for: · calculating the actual stability and stress situation before and after the separation of

the vessels; · providing assistance to the other vessel if required; · making adequate log book entries (deck and engine); · verifying that all safety precautions have been taken to reduce the risk of fire,

pollution and making sure that all safety equipment is ready for use; · informing all vessels in the vicinity; · informing the Company continually about the situation. · All other measures/actions will be organized by the Company. · A statement of facts containing the following data should be prepared:

· course set prior to collision; · speed prior to collision, · weather/sea conditions and visibility prior to collision; · whether pilotage was used or not; · performance and condition of the navigational instruments; · radar performance and range setting prior to collision; · Master’s position directly prior to collision; · Officer(s) and lookout on bridge prior to collision; · communication with collision vessel prior to collision; · preventive measures taken directly prior to collision; · further remarks/details;

8.15 GROUNDING In the event that the vessel is grounded, the Master has to obtain the following information immediately in order to evaluate the danger for the vessel and the risk of pollution:

· check and record the actual position; · verify and record the tidal situation; · verify and record the effects of the current; · record the actual weather conditions including wind, sea and swell; · record the weather forecast and changes in weather and sea conditions; · ascertain the nature of the grounding; · check the depth of water around the vessel and calculate the required buoyancy for

the re-floating with draft and the trim after re-floating; · evaluate the condition of the vessel including stress on the hull; · carry out soundings for leakage of all tanks and void spaces, particularly the engine

room, tanks and cargo holds; · inform the Company about the present situation; · inform fully the coast-guard station, port authority and agent. · The Master should only attempt to re-float the vessel using his own engine force

when he is sure that the propeller is free and will remain free when turning. · The Master shall evaluate whether de-ballasting, dropping of all fresh water and

bunker transfer would assist the re-floating of the vessel or reduce the danger to the ship;

· the Master shall contact the port authority to request information regarding the ground around the vessel and the presence of any obstructions such as wrecks, underwater cables etc.;

· if possible, the master shall await the high tide prior to any attempt to re-float the vessel with or without the engine;

· during the attempt to re-float the vessel, the Master shall not take any risks particularly when there is danger of pollution;

· Salvage assistance - if needed - should only be requested with the Company’s

approval. This does not affect the Master’s authority concerning all safety matters on board the ship.

8.16 ACCIDENTS AND MEDICAL MATTERS

General

In the event of an accident or injury to a crew member, the Master must forward a full report to the crewing agency and also immediately inform the shore-based management. Should an accident or injury occur to any other person or shore employee whilst on board, the Master is to forward a detailed report to the Company together with the names and addresses of witnesses. The attention of the Master and the officers is drawn to the avoidance of legal consequences which may arise from an accident or injury to a person whilst working on board, boarding or leaving the vessel, or rendering a service to the vessel, outside of the vessel, or in any other connection with the vessel. Most important is that all means must be taken to prevent accidents. Prevention measures which contribute to this are:

· The wearing of proper working clothes including shoes and helmets; · clean, dry and well illuminated working areas on deck and engine; · well marked obstructions (doors, frames, steps, pipes etc.); · properly stowed/lashed cargo and spare parts, tools, drums etc.; · no smoking in areas where inflammable gases or other substances are likely to be

found; · no alcoholic drinks prior to and during the working time; · no entry to compartments/tanks which have not been ascertained as gas-free areas; · sufficient lighting and venting of working areas; · adequate training and education of the crew members.

Crew Accident at Sea

In the event of any accident of a crew member or any other person working on board, the Master is to arrange with a doctor or medical centre that a blood test is make in order to ascertain whether the accident was caused by the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. This measure is very important because it can support the interests of the injured person when an insurance claim is brought forward. The Master also has to do his utmost to provide medical aid to the injured person and to protect him from further injury. The Medical Guide should be consulted. Records of all events and the behavior of the patient are to be entered in the Medical Log Book, which is very important for further treatment on land if necessary. The Master should not hesitate to ask for medical advice, even in apparently simple cases. He can ask for assistance by radio from the nearest coastal radio station or from the nearest vessel with a doctor on board. In case of language difficulties, the Master should use the applicable IMO phrases. The International Code of Signals has a special medical section which gives details of all countries which provide medical advice by radio. See also Form O 09 ( TMAS Medico ) If the person has to be brought ashore for medical treatment, then the Master has to take all the necessary precautions and make arrangements to achieve safe disembarkation either by

boat or helicopter. The decision to land an injured or sick person should be based on medical advice if possible. In the event that medical advice is not available, the Master may, at his discretion, land the patient in the care of the Company’s agent. The Master shall inform the Company at once about such arrangements in order to appoint a local agent who has to co-ordinate the operation afterwards. In the unfortunate event of death of a crew member on board, the Master is to ensure that a detailed account of the circumstances leading up to the death is made. Furthermore, the Master shall follow the procedures required by the Regulation of the Flag State. For further guidance he should refer to the publication „SHIP CAPTAIN’S MEDICAL GUIDE“

Crew Accident in Port

In this case the Master has to inform the local medical service/hospital either directly or through the local agent. The agent is to support the Master in taking all necessary actions. The Master shall hand over to the agent the passport, the completed and stamped seaman’s book, a signed accident report and private belongings of the seaman including clean clothing. If the crew member has to be left behind, the Master is to ensure that all personal belongings are listed and handed over to the agent or the crew member himself.

Sickness of Crew at Sea

Basically the same procedure applies here too. In addition, the symptoms of the sick person are to be recorded in the Medical Log Book. If the condition of the seaman worsens, the Shore Medical Station is to be contacted for instructions and the Company informed. If morphine or other medical drugs are used on board, this must be recorded in the Medical Log Book and the Deck Log Books, and the dosage entered into the drug inventory so that a replacement order can be made.

Crew Sickness in Port

the same procedure as in Crew Accident in Port

Accidents of Stevedores, Dockers and Visitors on board

· Utmost attention to be paid to the potential legal consequences. If there is the slightest doubt, the Master is to immediately contact the local P&I representative for assistance.

· The maximum first aid is to be rendered and the Master is to keep in contact with the local medical centre.

· The Master shall record all details, even if these appear of minor importance. He shall inspect the place of accident himself to collect evidence and take photographs.

· The shore-based management is to be informed accordingly and an entry made in the Deck Log Book.

· Assisted by the P&I representative, the Master is to prepare a report complete with
