in packaged
form

Other forms of
package
5. Dangerous/hazardous

information about ?????

dangerous????
Flammable or not
flammable????
Presence of
Hydrogen Sulphide
(H2S)????
7. Other kinds of
cargoes
Drilling equipment
Spare parts
Pipes and
construction parts
Provision and storage
Fresh water
Etc…….
8. The regulation
All transport of dangerous and
pollutant cargoes is regulated
trough international and
national legislation
The responsible persons on
board must therefore have
good knowledge about the
requirements set by this
provisions and be able to cope
with them
This is also stated in the ISM
code
9. But why does there often occures
misunderstandings around the legeslatin
on board on offshore support vessels
IMO regulations handled by
the flag state authority
Norwegian Maritime
Directorate
Petroleum Safety Authority
(Ptil) (on Norwegian sector)
Have their own legislations
which not always are in
accordance with the IMO
rules
10. The Norwegian Labour
Inspection Authority (Atil)
(Norwegian)
Conducts more to the land based
activities and are not always in
alignment with the IMO regulations
The Climate and Pollution
Agency (Klif) (Norwegian)
Have also their own regulations
which in some case can be a
challenge to cope with when it is
set up against the IMO rules
11. The challenge occurs in the logistic chain
where all this regulations comes in force
IMO/NMD rules Ptil rules
Klif rules Atil rules
12. What kind of special vessels are
transporting this cargoes?
13. Dangerous goods
in package form
Container vessels
RoRo vessels
Palett vessels
18. Other kinds of cargoes
Ordinary cargo- and pallet vessels
19. To day many kinds of this cargo types
are shipped on offshore support vessels
20. Qualification requirements
For personals serving on this
special vessels carrying
dangerous and polluting
cargoes the STCW code STCW code chapter V
Obligations and guidelines
requires special training and regarding training and
certification on special
competence vessels
The ISM code requires that
the crewmembers on board on
all SOLAS vessels shall be
fully competent to perform the ISM code # 6
Resources and Personnel
jobs they are set to do
21. Where special training and courses
is required, own certificates normally
are issued
Tankerman, oil
Tankerman, chemical
This requires together a 9 days
course, approximately a
duration of 100 hrs (0800 –
2000)
IMDG code competence
certificate
Normally a two days course
(included in the general STCW
requirements)
22. Special training on offshore support
vessels
To day there are no regulated
requirements on special
training or courses regarding
dangerous and polluting cargoes
for personnel on offshore
support vessels
In spite of that this vessels are
carrying a wide spectres of this
types of cargoes
23. IMO resoulution A.673 (16)
”Guidelines for the Transport and Handling of Limited Amounts of Hazardous
and Noxious Liquid Substances in Bulk on Offshore Support Vessels”
The guidelines got in force in 1989
Three minor changes in 2004/2006
IMO sub committee BLG, has
commenced the work to issued a
new code value for OSV vessels
A self standing OSV Chemical
Code based on BLG 16/INF.6 as
the part of the T.O.R for the work
Requirements for formal training for
handling of noxious liquid substances
in bulk is a part of the agenda
24. The new OSV chemical code must necessarily be
seen in connection with other IMO codes
OSV code (Code of Safe
Practice for the Carriage of
Cargoes and Persons by
Offshore Supply Vessels)
Guidelines for the design
and construction of OSV
IBC code (International Code
for the Construction and
Equipment of Ships Carrying
Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk)
25. The “jungle” of regulations and safety
precautions to follow!
I have a
problem!
26. The challenge is how to
deal with all this and to
know what is what!
27. The ship owners in the offshore industry has
realised the necessity of training their ship crew
so they in a better way can take care of the:
The safety on board
The environment
The ship and it’s equipment
The customers interests
And to make them more
able to cope with the rules
and the regulations
28. Background for the course
Aalesund Maritime University College started developing the course
in the winter of 2010 after being challenged by Bourbon Offshore
Norway
The background was that it did not exist any courses that were
considered as fully relevant for the treatment and carriage of
dangerous and polluting cargoes on board offshore supply vessels
29. The purpose of the course
Better knowledge in the
handling and carrying of
dangerous and polluting
cargoes in a safe way
Better knowledge about and
how to deal with and
understand the legislation and
guidelines regarding to
transport of dangerous cargoes
30. Better knowledge about
the risks connecting to
dangerous and
polluting cargoes
A tool to secure the
vessel’s, the company's
and the charterer’s
interests related to the
safe handling of the
cargoes
And to get ..…
31. .... better understanding of what is what
