Objectives
In preparation for the upcoming exploration campaigns off the coast of Namibia, a joint industry/government activity was set up with Shell, Total and Namibian authorities so that all stakeholders are well prepared and can coordinate in case of an emergency.
The objectives of this 2-day IMS 300 training followed by a 1-day table-top exercise are to:
- Test the communication links between all stakeholders;
- Participants familiarize themselves with the principles and processes of Incident Management System;
- Test companies’ contingency plans in accordance with Namibia’s NOSCP in case of an oil spill incident; and
- Expose participants to the key issues related to spill incidents.
