WORKSHOP OVERVIEW |
|
|
Management plays a very important role in the performance and safe running of high value DP platforms, which perform very special and intricate operations in a trying environment. It is important that the management thoroughly understands the various facets and nuances of DP to ensure efficient and safe working of these vessels. They also need to understand the intricate environment in which DP bridge personnel perform their duty, which by nature is monotonous. DP system is a boon to the offshore industry, with a high degree of reliability which allows the vessels to perform complicated tasks with precision. DP is simple to operate but it is one of the most intricate systems at sea, which requires very good operator understanding and alertness on desk. A simple equipment failure, operating error or lack of alertness can cause a disaster of great magnitude. Managers also need to have knowledge of DP rules, regulations and charterer’s demands/requirements to be able to provide requisite support to maximise the output of these platforms. In a nutshell; the management ashore needs to be on the same page as staff onboard. Therefore, they need to have good understanding of DP in its correct perspective, its demand and support requirements for crew to perform their function safely and efficiently at sea. The workshop will cover the essential basics of DP, the importance of reference systems, significance of DP class and the related redundancy of each class, the need for proper FMEA, trials, audits and maintenance, all of which have a profound effect on ensuring safe operation and optimum exploitation of a DP vessel. The discussions will include safe DP practices and bridge team management which are important to increase safety of DP operations. Similarly, the DP incident analysis also is an important tool to learn lessons and improve safety. IMCA analysis will be discussed for the benefit of the participants during the workshop. Apart from recent developments in DP training, participants would gain insight into ways the competency of DPOs, who are the back bone of DP operations at sea, can be improved. Emphasis will be placed on practical aspects of operations based on the experience of the course facilitator to make this three day workshop a meaningful and essential learning experience. |
