Training
Manuals required by SOLAS
STCW requires
that the Shipowner /
Operator must comply with certain manning principles and ensure that the level
of competence of those operating their
vessels meet minimum standards. To achieve this certain manuals must be
onboard to allow ship's personnel the availability of study material,
and
/
or documentation,
to ensure a full understanding on the equipment in their
charge. This material should be ship specific, in other words
appropriate to the equipment which is actually onboard. In a time of crisis, the
crew must be able to operate all safety equipment with confidence. This is only
achieved through training using proper technical data which is easily
understood. This is extremely important when considering multinational crews.
SOPEP / SMPEP Manuals can also be
prepared.
