Empirical Evidence is hard to obtain but just looking at

stowage and securing of cargo in freight containers..

How many are there?


How many possible movements per annum with DGs?

So how many is that with a serious deficiency based on IMO stats?

If we extrapolate that to all cargoes the figure could be as high as?

Vehicle Roll-overs


A frequent occurrence !

Ship fires on the increase…….


A major vessel fire every 30 days

11

And what causes these??

12

Dangerous Goods either not declared or

misdeclared

Capt Richard W A Brough O.B.E. Director, Brough Marine Ltd; Technical Adviser

Non- dangerous goods can become dangerous !

Shippers often misdeclare goods

Or use inadequate CTUs!

And take extraordinary

risks !

..and take no account of packing and

securing requirements

But clearly a problem here !


CARGO INTEGRITY

And this is definitely bad practice – but all

too common unfortunately

Industry and govt

response to poor

selection, packing and

securing often leading

to serious cargo

damage and even loss

of life

Lack of cleanliness

Dangerous Goods

DG Compliance

And do not pick the right kind of container

Dangerous Goods

DG Compliance

So which way do we turn for guidance? …..

SAFE?

So where do we develop that Internationally?

SAFE and LEGAL?

A plethora of legislation……

This is very important……

And industry guidance……

38

So we have to protect people….
