Webinar: Containership fires - getting cargo right
TT Club and UK P&I ship fire series
TT Club and UK P&I Club are once again coming together to discuss containership issues, addressing the worrisome issue of ship fires.
Over a series of three webinars, we will take different perspectives, firstly focusing on specific issues relating to the cargo loaded on board, looking into practices to combat non-declaration and mis-declaration, as well as profiling the risk-based stowage approach. The second webinar will delve into the firefighting capabilities on board container ships and the final session will discuss what is important after an event in terms of investigations and preparing for inevitable litigation.
Each webinar will involve industry experts and seek to generate valuable debate. Experience has demonstrated that there are critical issues to be addressed and this series aims to advance industry thinking and discussion.
