their types, arrangements, regulations, and installation. Taking a tugboat as a case study declaring all
of its safety equipment, requirements and firefighting systems may help representing the importance
of such requirements onboard ships.
In the first chapter of this report we will begin by defining ship types and where is our case study
from this classification. We will define tugboats, their types, functions and specifications.
In the second chapter, exposing safety onboard ships will be our target, declaring types of safety,
risks to which a ship is subjected to face and responses to these risks. We cannot talk about safety
onboard without talking about SOLAS conventions and its regulations for safety equipment, lifesaving
appliances, personal safety, operational safety, safety of navigation and radio
communications. Also we will declare GMDSS rules.
Third chapter would be about firefighting systems onboard ships. We will begin by
understanding the fire definition, its basics and classifications. Also we will see SOLAS regulations
for this purpose and the importance of FSS Code. This chapter includes the 3 main systems of fire,
prevention systems, detections and alarm systems, and main firefighting systems. Also includes
means of escape in case of fire.
In the fourth chapter, our case study will take place which is a tugboat defining its minimum
safety requirements and its own firefighting systems and procedure in many fire cases onboard
harbor tugboats.
The fifth and last chapter is our conclusions concluded after declaring and studying our safety
and firefighting requirements for ships and studying the case study properly.
