The course focuses primarily on the ship/shore interface rather than requirements specific to individual cargoes. Topics include safe mooring, access to the vessel, ship/shore communications, securing accommodation openings, tow-off wires where required, firefighting equipment, tank openings, scuppers, blanking of unused manifolds, drip trays and overfill alarms. Visual examples are used throughout the course to help participants recognise each of these safety arrangements in practice.
