Snatch Recovery Rescue - Training Exercise with CalMac
December 2021
Dales Marine Services worked closely with their client Caledonian MacBrayne (CalMac) to undertake a training exercise to replicate a snatch recovery rescue onboard their vessel while in Dales Greenock dry dock.
Plan B Consulting were the allocated auditors on-site during the whole process, assessing Dales Marine's procedure in safely evacuating create or staff from the vessel following a fire in the engine room.
During the Safety Training exercise, Dales Marine's emergency response team was called into action with the emergency alert that a crew member was injured in an engine room fire and incapacitated, calling for a safe snatch rescue from the smokey engine room.
The Dales Emergency Response Team performed well, and the safety training exercise went smoothly, and the team performed.
