Accident investigation



The vessel’s gear became snagged on an underwater obstruction. Whilst hauling  back in an effort to free the gear, power was lost to the winches and, as a result of  their design, the winch brakes were automatically applied. The crew were unable to release them.


With the gear fast, the effect of the wind and tide placed a heavy load on the port warp and the vessel was effectively given a port list. The vessel started to roll, making the port side engine room intake dip below the water line, causing the engine room to flood which eventually resulted in the vessel capsizing.


The six crew members successfully abandoned the vessel, but unfortunately five of the six life jackets used by the crew failed to inflate and as a result one crew member got into difficulties and drowned.


Observations 


The inquiry into this incident highlighted a number of contributing factors to the  cause which were primarily not within the control of those on board, e.g. air intakes for the engine room were considered too low and the emergency start facility for the winches was not user friendly.


Of main concern to the Club is the failure of so many life jackets to inflate. Investigations by the authorities found that the CO2 cylinders providing the inflating gas had been unscrewed from their housings. Tests showed that this could occur during normal usage.


The life jackets were working type rather than those required by SOLAS, and due to wear and tear, the outer cover chafed against the cylinder, which caused it to gradually unscrew.


Corrective/Preventive actions


We recommend that Members advise crews to check thoroughly all life jackets  regularly and to ensure when required that the life jackets are serviced by an approved service agent.

Are you looking for Eddy Current Testing - Eiwaa Group

Image
Eiwaa Group of  Eddy Current Testing system was specially developed for quality testing and process monitoring of long products. From hot testing to all bright steel processing steps, the surfaces of semi-finished products made from austenitic, (non) ferromagnetic metals can be tested for defects. The system operates in a contactless and non-destructive manner in accordance with the Eddy Current Testing method and is used for detecting short defects, such as holes or localized defects and transverse defects.  The systems detect defective materials fully automatically and reliably. Defects can be marked, classified, and automatically discarded. The test speed of up to 150 m/s facilitates 100% testing, even at high production speeds. The systems benefit from low operating costs and frugal energy consumption as well as low maintenance costs, few wear parts, and low use of materials. Eddy Current Testing :  It is based on the principle of generating circular electric curre...

Best Eddy Current Testing in Saudi and UAE - Eiwaa Group

Image
Eddy Current Inspection is one of several NDT methods using the principle of electromagnetism to conduct examinations. Other methods, such as remote field testing (RFT), flux leakage also use this principle. Eddy Current Testing is completed through a process called electromagnetic induction. When alternating current is applied to the conductor, such as copper wire, a magnetic field develops in and around the conductor. This magnetic field expands as the alternating current rises to maximum and then collapses as the current is reduced to zero. When another electrical conductor is positioned in close proximity with this changing magnetic field, current will be induced into this second conductor. Eddy currents are induced electrical currents that flow in a circular path. Current testing takes its name from Eddies, which are formed when a liquid or gas flows in a circular path around obstacles under the right conditions. ID probes, also referred to as Bobbin probes or feed-through pr...
