This is the reality, more and more tasks with less and less crew .....
Safe Passage in The Singapore Strait - Westbound 00.24 The Singapore straight is one of the busiest waterways in the world together with the Strait of Malacca. It is a maritime corridor of over 400 nautical miles in length and estimated one-third of the world's traded goods pass through these waters annually a figure which is expected to increase as the region's economies continue to grow at its narrowest point there are just three nautical miles between the shores of Singapore and Indonesia while the navigable channel is reduced to less than 2 nautical miles. Safe passage in the Singapore straight is a set of two videos and an interactive training module together they offer valuable information for experienced bridge teams even if they have transited the street before and useful advice for those visiting for the first time.
There are around 1,000 ship movements each day in the Singapore straight as a result watchkeeping offices can find themselves having to deal with traffic situations involving a wide range of vessel types and sizes. This is especially challenging in poor visibility so detailed voyage planning good seamanship and situational awareness are essential to safe navigation.the hydrographic data is regularly checked so when calculating safety factors on depth and contour settings make sure you have the most recent updates. There are strong tidal streams in the strait which must be remembered as these can make a big difference when crossing lanes or picking up a pilot boarding grounds for Singapore and Malaysia are all to the north of the tss, sambu.
The pilot boarding ground for Indonesian port is to the south.Navigation in the straight can be demanding. so everyone needs to be properly rested at the start. Traffic movement is always changing watchkeeping officers need to know their ships position and maintain good situational awareness so that they can make appropriate navigational choices. it's important to have the right level of bridge personnel always follow your company's SMS, all vessels must proceed with caution, they need to maintain a speed consistent with safe navigation as always keep to your company's SMS but it is strongly recommended to have the engine room and throughout the transit. In addition to following all applicable rules of the road officers are well advised to take a look at rule 10 concerning navigation in a tss remember be in a tss does not give you the right of way so use good seamanship. This could mean slowing down to help resolve a traffic situation even when you have the right-of-way always maintain a safe distance from other vessels, keep an eye out for the weather sudden thunderstorms with heavy rain can occur between June and August October through December.
The visibility can become moderate or poor very quickly Hayes can also reduce visibility, shipmasters are advised to keep a proper look out and navigate with caution. In addition to following all applicable rules of the road, ships shall comply in particular with rules 19,20 and 35, concerning the conduct of vessels in stricted visibility. The exhibition of navigation lights and the use of sound signals in darkness vessels crossing the tss and all precautionary areas are requested and recommended to display a signal of three all-round green lights in a vertical line this indicates the intention to cross to all nearby vessels. in the tss. It is rarely possible to always keep strictly to the planned course line watchkeeping officers must be prepared to move to one side of the lane or the other to overtake or even when being overtaken as well as the traffic in their immediate surroundings, they are advised to look well ahead to see what situations may be developing.
Singapore government don't planned to fail. They always do their homework before carrying out all pilot projects. Smart country but brainy government. keep up your good work always! Gd day!
Can boat common sense be normal again? Like McDonald stops was because of false-information then will be paid penalty by japanese. Everyone knows how to drive a boat, if create a corner for jetski to park boat for people? Q.R Code as passport makes it like ezlink kind of passing by, it will be nicer life common sense can be happening again?
The harsh ruling, business still moves to see a funky ship and container appearing then without a news of such existence, because by common sense it is odd. Then containers of bad leaf scent brought into s.g as a spike to entire country(suspect as smelliest flower in the world haven't grow the flower), also not in the news. We should be able to try for business chemistry across the sea ourselves as business desires for growth.
