MPA Shipping division together with The Ministry of Transport's Transport Safety Investigation Bureau (TSIB) jointly organised a dialogue session on 26 Feb 2024 with SRS operators of tugboats, launches and supply vessels. The session saw over 70 participants including owners, managers as well as MPA and TSIB officers. The session featured presentations highlighting best practices on safe transfer between ships, information for operators to proactively rectify common flag State control inspection deficiencies, case studies on collision prevention and prevention of workplace injuries arising from fire or lack of adherence to safe procedures while securing barge ramps. TSIB also shared on the latest shipping circular on the requirement for operators to notify incidents to TSIB for the purpose of objective, independent investigations to identify root causes and prevent similar instances from occurring. The dialogue session was a collaborative session where industry and government agencies actively shared their perspectives and knowledge, leading to an enriching time for all in attendance.
