Handled several enclosed space-related accidents in the past years. I still remember the C/O of an oil tanker who lost his life after entered into the cargo tank for inspection. You can never be too careful.

Description: Master's Guides: focus on delivering best practice advice on key areas of vessel operations.
The purpose of this guide is to assist seafarers to enter enclosed spaces safely, in order to prevent enclosed
space-related casualties.
Investigations into such incidents show that most are caused by poor training and knowledge of the correct entry
procedures, or a disregard for them. It is therefore vital that all seafarers are aware of the danger of enclosed
spaces and learn the correct entry procedures, whether or not it is a requirement of their role on board.
Seafarers must understand that no enclosed space should be entered without following proper precautions, even in an emergency.
As part of the Loss Prevention department’s continuing commitment to safety at sea, a number of ‘Master’s Guides’ have been produced which focus on delivering best practice advice on key areas of vessel operations to avert avoidable claims and prevent accidents, casualties and incidents at sea.
