Risks & Mitigation Strategies
The Marine Sector, encompassing shipping, offshore drilling, and marine energy generation, plays a crucial role in global trade, energy production, and transportation. However, it also presents unique safety challenges due to its operational environment and the nature of its activities. Irwin's Safety offers comprehensive solutions to mitigate these risks, ensuring the safety of personnel, the protection of marine ecosystems, and the continuity of operations.
The risk of man overboard incidents and drowning is a constant threat in marine operations, necessitating rigorous safety protocols and rescue readiness.
The operation and maintenance of vessels and offshore platforms often involve working in confined spaces, increasing the risk of exposure to toxic gases and oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Given the presence of flammable materials and confined environments, the marine sector faces significant risks of fire and explosions, which can have catastrophic outcomes.
The dynamic and often wet or slippery conditions on decks and platforms increase the risk of slips, trips, and falls, leading to injuries.
Handling fuels, chemicals, and other hazardous materials is a regular part of marine operations, posing risks of exposure and environmental contamination.
