Emergency Response Drill Scenarios
1
Fuel Transf er Exercise name: Fuel Transfer Failure
Scenario Sheet To: From: How transmitted: Time:
Seq. #
Master Engineer/A.B. Hand Held Radio Daylight
Details:
At sea transfer of fuel underway Slack in transfer hose between vessels Vessel motions cause hose to be pinched between fenders and hull. Hose develops moderate leak due to pinch
Note; to check the following
Page 4 of 10
All checklists and communication checks completed prior to transfer operation SOPEP materials on both vessels located at transfer stations Sufficient and competent personnel manning transfer positions Immediate communication of hose failure to bridge and transfer vessel. Prompt shut down of pump on transfer vessel. Transfer hose disconnected and passed to vessel to minimise spillage. All residual fuel from hose absorbed with SOP EP material Calculate spill from flow rate/timing of shut down and report as required by local regulations.

Abandon ment by Lif e raft Exercise name: abandonment by life rafts
Scenario Sheet To: From: How transmitted: Time:
Seq. #
Chief Officer Bridge, Master By Tannoy/Radio Daytime
Details:
Uncontrolled fire, abandonment decided by Master. Main muster station begins to be impaired by smoke. Two seismic personnel suffered smoke inhalation during mustering. Two persons are homonymous, confusion reported during muster. One life boat impaired by smoke, the other (if any) cannot be operated (vessel list), life rafts are the last solution. Ladders and life rafts position at sea do not match (wind and current push them forward).
Note; to check the following

Fire – Engin e Room Exercise name:
Scenario Sheet To: From: How transmitted: Time: Details:
Bridge Alarm Panel Fire Alarm Daytime
Debrief:
Page 6 of 10
Seq. #
Smoke sensor trigged in starboard engine room Fire confirmed Full Muster. 1 motorman found missing Fuel hose broken resulted flashing fuel on the boiler. Major fire Hi fog in starboard engine room released. (full flooding) Done from Engine Control Room: Emergency stop on DG 3 and 4 o Stop fuel pumps and quick closing valves o Isolate starboard High Voltage transformer starboard side and o this includes stopping of thrusters/s. Fire team 1 enter starboard engine room and manage to rescue missing motorman and confirmed the fire extinguished. Motorman suffered severe burns and unconscious. Medevac required. Medevac operation in progress The casualty taken to the hospital by medical team for further treatment until medevac arrives
Consider when it is safe to send in the fire team due to the high temperature in the engine room. Communication problems between Bridge and fire squad. (high noise level in the engine room) How long for the Medevac helicopter to arrive How to treat a serious injured person onboard
Emergency Response Drill Scenarios
4
Fire – Helic opter on Deck Exercise name: Helicopter engine compartment fire
Scenario Sheet To: From: How transmitted: Time: Details:
Bridge HLO Voice/radio Dusk
After successful landing on deck, HLO reports fire from engine compartment of helicopter. Helicopter crew and passengers evacuated from helicopter. Fire alarm released, P A call issued, fire teams muster. Fire spreading to helicopter main frame.
Pop Spay (AFFF) released, Helideck fire watch start flooding helicopter with AFFF from foam monitors. Fire fighters attack engine fire with CO2.
Helicopter fuel tank ruptures, instant blaze with fire on helideck. AFFF foam will quickly “kill” blaze 2 persons with severe burn damage rescued by fire team, and handed over to medical team.
Fire extinguished – medevac needed for 2 burn casualties.
Possible conflict between Helicopter organization and fire teams. How to medevac 2 casualties with “Heliport” obstructed by wreckage. When/how and who to report, priorities! Escalation – burning helifuel igniting onboard streamers etc.

Medical – Cold sto re Exercise name: Freon leakage to cold store
Scenario Sheet To: From: How transmitted: Time:
Seq. #
Bridge Cold Store Cold Store Alarm Night time
Details:
Notes:
Page 8 of 10
Lookout sent to check When opening door chief steward is observed lying lifeless on floor No sign of obvious external damage to person Muster alarm released to mobilise support personnel. BA team with stretcher called to rescue person When person is brought into a safe area he is placed in recovery position and vital signs checked. No breathing is observed Two dedicated persons set to start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and chest compression Dedicated person starts procedure around defibrillator. Pulse and respiration successfully restarted Bridge starts emergency procedure toward onshore medical support/radio medico.
In this scenario the unconsciousness is caused by gas leakage Always consider gas leakage/lack of oxygen when unconsciousness persons are found onboard. And enter such areas/confined spaces with care/BA sets if the person is located any distance from doors/ventilated areas. Rushing into a confined area to save an unconscious person may cause causality.

Man Overboard Exercise name: MOB Exercise
Scenario Sheet To: From: How transmitted: Time:
Seq. #
Bridge MOB Alarm System MOB Alarm / UHF Daytime
Details:
Notes:
Page 9 of 16
MOB Alarm active from Back Deck MOB confirmed by UHF, General Alarm activated. Full Muster except Back Deck observer of casualty. Personnel take up designated positions and tasks. Launch FRC, and direct by radio towards casualty. FRC recover casualty, inform Bridge of condition. Recover FRC to deck Level, evacuate casualty to deck or accommodation. First Aid Triage Examination.
Injuries caused by falling overboard can include cuts & bruises broken bones, water inhalation, exposure and shock. Water inhalation can lead to “Secondary Drowning” which is a very serious condition. Consider weather / environmental conditions. Which method of recovery should be used? What are the alternatives should the primary method fail. Should a second boat and crew be made ready? Depending of the condition of the casualty, shore side medical advice to be sought. First aider to remain with casualty (secondary drowning) Consider MEDEVAC by helicopter Ascertain if there is a manned installation/rig or Standby vessel near by with medic on board

Leader stands back, keeps overview of the big picture, not hands-on Priorities assessed and communicated, with reappraisal Leader delegates tasks effectively and makes good of all available resources Effectiveness of initial alarm - heard and correctly identifed at all points on the site All musters crew given effective briefing of the objectives, and kept well informed Effective use of PA, radios, and verbal briefings throughout Muster completed within target time-frame All crew accounted for efficiently and installed systems all worked as designed Clearly understood instructions at Muster point All crew aware of their role Rescue or response teams, well coordinated
Drill Design
Where several teams involved, interaction well coordinated Manager created and executed an imaginative drill Crew attention maintained throughout
Debrief
Drill designed to address scenarios identified by a risk management process Key participants brought together for full debrief Both failures and successes identified Record made of debrief and any action points recorded to RWP Total
