Workers on attendant vessels and offshore installations are being put at risk due to a failure of navigational watch processes and systems.
Incidents are occurring because:
- personnel who are responsible for watchkeeping and the safe navigation of a vessel are being distracted with non-navigational tasks
- situational awareness is not being maintained at all times
- there is insufficient communication between all members of a bridge team
Action required
Vessel operators and duty holders responsible for marine activities connected with offshore oil and gas installations and windfarms should review operating procedures and take actions relevant to your operation.
