SEAM 4 Finals Quizzes Flashcards
It is a space that is not used for day to day activity and which has different characteristics.
Enclosed Space
There will be a high chances of the presence of toxic gases or absence of oxygen, both cases being lethal for person entering in an enclosed space.
Insufficient Space or No Ventilation
What is the acceptable range of oxygen when entering in an enclosed space?
19.5 to 23.55%
This can make space deadly even it there is no lack of oxygen or the compartment is oxygen- enriched.
Toxic Vapours
Refers to a space or area that has adequate air circulation or flow, typically through windows, doors, or ventilation systems.
Well Ventilated
This should be present in the enclosed space before entering.
Enough Lighting and Illumination
It is a formal authorization system used in workplaces to control high-risk activities.
Permit to Work
A type of rescue involves an entrant (the worker) leaving the space under their own power.
Self
A rescue uses equipment to extricate a person from the confined space without the need for additional people to enter.
Non-Entry
A type of rescue where additional people enter the confined space to perform the rescue. This should be the last resort option as it is the most dangerous rescue and improperly carried out has the potential to result in multiple fatalities.
Entry
What does “SCBA” stands for?
Self Contained Breathing Apparatus
What does “OSHA” stands for?
Occupational Safety Health Administration
What does “ESP” stand for?
Enhanced Survey Program
What IMO adopted resolution guidelines on the Enhanced survey programmed for inspection and surveys of bulk carriers and tankers?
A 744(18)
In what year does the IMO adopted the resolution guidelines on the Enhanced survey programmed for inspection and surveys of bulk carriers and tankers?
1994
This is to be developed by the owner and must be submitted to the recognized authorities such as classification societies, 6 months before the survey.
Survey Programme
What type of ship does annex A of IMO adopted resolution refer to?
Bulk Carrier
What type of ship does annex B of IMO adopted resolution refer to?
Tankers
What part of annex A guidelines on the enhanced programme of inspections that refer to single- side skin construction of a ship?
PartA
What part of annex A guidelines on the enhanced programme of inspections that refer to double- side skin construction of a ship?
Part B
Why is an Enhanced Survey Programme necessary for ships?
To ensure compliance with international maritime regulations and safety standards
Before entering an enclosed space, what is a crucial step in ensuring safety, particularly regarding the presence of toxic gases?
Conducting a risk assessment
What are some potential consequences of insufficient or no ventilation in an enclosed space?
High chances of the presence of toxic gases or absence of oxygen
In an enclosed space, what is the first step to be taken upon discovering a leakage of hazardous materials from adjacent spaces?
Notify the emergency response team and evacuate personnel from the affected area
What is an essential aspect to consider when establishing entry and exit procedures for an enclosed space?
Balancing security needs with ease of access and emergency egress
When illuminating an enclosed space, what is a primary consideration to ensure optimal visibility and comfort?
Placing lighting fixtures strategically to minimize shadows and glare
What is a critical step to ensure the effectiveness of gas detection equipment in hazardous environments?
Regularly checking the equipment for damage and proper calibration
In communication within enclosed spaces, what is one of the key considerations to maintain clarity and understanding?
Being concise and clear in communication
What is the primary function of personal protective equipment (PPE) in the workplace or other environments?
To minimize exposure to hazards that may cause injuries or illnesses
Which of the following is a recommended practice for ensuring personal safety in hazardous environments specifically when entering in an enclosed space?
Wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, and a mask if necessary
In entering in closed space, why is it important for a person working in certain environments to carry an oxygen analyzer and keep it on at all times?
To monitor the oxygen content in the surrounding air for safety
Why is it important to provide signboards in confined spaces, especially when dealing with equipment, machinery, or operations?
To warn workers of potential hazards and prevent accidents
What kind of permit that required the permission by the Master of the ship in order to work in a confined space?
Shipboard Entry Permit
What are the potential risks of entering an enclosed space with insufficient or no ventilation?
Risk of oxygen depletion and accumulation of toxic gases or vapors
