Emergency Planning
Plans that hold up when the alarm sounds
Emergency planning, drill programmes and exercise design for vessels, ports, terminals and shipyards.
Overview
Preparation is the only thing you control
Most emergency plans are written for an auditor. We write them for the officer holding the folder at three in the morning with smoke in an engine room and a contractor unaccounted for.
Our planning work combines firefighting experience, inspection knowledge and incident command practice, so the documented response matches what your people can actually achieve with the equipment and manning on hand.
What you receive
- Vessel and site-specific emergency response plans
- Fire, flooding, enclosed space, casualty and abandonment scenarios
- Muster, headcount and evacuation arrangements for crew and contractors
- Drill programmes and annual exercise calendars
- Table-top and live exercises with independent assessment
- Shore-side emergency response team structure and escalation routes
- Post-incident and post-exercise reporting with tracked actions
Process
From risk picture to tested capability
01
Risk picture
We assess the vessel or site, its systems, its manning and the realistic emergencies it faces — including the ones the current plan does not cover.
02
Plan that works on the day
Plans are written for the person holding them during an incident: short, ordered, role-based and consistent with your existing management system.
03
Test it honestly
Drills and exercises are designed to stress command and communication, not to be passed. Findings are recorded plainly.
04
Close the loop
Actions are tracked to completion and folded back into the plan, the drill programme and the crew's training record.

We will review what you have, tell you where it would fail, and build the plan and drill programme that fixes it.
