15. Master to decide whether Hot Work can carried out or
not
Hot work outside the engine room should not be
started until procedure has been discussed & agreed
Conduct Safety Meeting before carrying out Hot Work
There should be an agreed written plan
16. Should assign designated Officer in Charge
There should be a formulated Flow Chart
Involved personnel are properly briefed
Hot work permit is properly carried out and issued
17. No hot work must be undertaken inside a
compartment until it has been cleaned and
ventilated
Hot work on open deck is not permitted unless
area is free of flammable vapor as well as all
compartments within the radius of work
18. Materials that are likely to give-off flammable
vapors are removed at least 10 meters from
work area.
Adjacent compartments are cleaned and gas
freed
Ensure not release flammable vapor from non-
adjacent compartment that are not gas free
19. No hot work should be carried out on bulkheads
of bunker tanks that are in use
All pipelines interconnecting with cargo spaces
should be flushed, drained, vented and isolated
from the compartment or deck area where hot
work will take place
20. All operations must be stopped when
performing Hot work
It Hot work is interrupted for a long period of
time, it should not be resumed unless all
precautions are re-checked and a new Hot work
permit is used.

39. GROUP WORK
Create an Action Plan that you can implement onboard
a chemical tanker in case of:
1. Collision with Fire
2. Grounding with Spill
3. Cargo Spillage due to Grounding
4. Structural/hull failure due to over pressure
40.
41. a. Raising the alarm
b. Locating and assessing the emergency and the dangers involved, and
identifying actions already taken
c. Organizing manpower and equipment
d. Arranging contingency evacuation for non-essential personnel
e. Notifying proper authorities
f. Notifying the ship operator’s office with the company’s contingency plan
42. The master should take advantage of any
opportunity for a combined emergency exercise
with shore personnel at a terminal.
72. Critical safety instructions concerning the additive
in the form of a certificate showing:
• what additive has been or should be introduced into the
product, and how much;
• when the additive was or should be introduced, and for how
long it is expected to be effective;
• the temperature conditions to be met in order to preserve the
effectiveness and lifetime of the additive;
• whether oxygen must be present in the liquid for an inhibitor to
be effective;
• what action should be taken if the voyage lasts longer than the
effect of the additive
73. The following precautions are recommended:
• Engine room personnel should be alerted:
• Discharge should take place through a sea valve and where possible
on the side opposite to the engine room intakes.
• All non-essential inlets should be closed.
• If discharge must be from the deck level, flexible hoses should be
rigged to extend below the water surface.
• All safety precautions relating to the presence of flammable or toxic
gas in the vicinity of the deck must be observed.
• A radio warning should be broadcast for the information of ships
nearby.
