"BP FIREMA.STER" New Firefloat for Swansea Docks the Firefloat "BP
"BP FIREMA.STER" New Firefloat for Swansea Docks The firefloat "BP Firemaster" recently completed, by Messrs. R. S. Hayes (Pembroke Dock) Ltd., at the Dockyard, Pembroke Lock, South Wales, for the BP Tanker Company Ltd., is something quite new in fire-fighting craft. Designed by the Engineering Department of the BP Tanker Company Ltd., based on their experience of the use of sea-going tugs for fire-fighting purposes, the "BP Firemaster" has the combined advantages of mobility, fire-fighting potential, and ability to maintain her position alongside a burning vessel without the necessity of mooring. Propulsion of the firefloat is by two Harbormaster outboard propulsion units situated at the forward and after ends, and each operated by Dorman KUD 6-cylinder diesel engines of 140 BHP and fitted with Bryce Berger "Handraulic" starting. Both the above units can be started and operated from the wheelhouse, and as each propeller can be rotated through 360 degrees, movement in any direction can be obtained, and the firefloat held in any required position against the thrust of the monitor jets. The "BP Firemaster" comprises two pontoons, each 60ft. long, 14ft. wide and 7ft. 6ins. deep, which are joined at deck level and are also connected below water level by elliptical tubes, forming a "catamaran", the overall breadth being 36ft. Mounted on the catamaran is an open pyramid formed by four tubular steel supports at the apex of which is mounted the Control Cabin, from which the Fire master directs firefighting operations. Immediately below this cabin are two platforms 23ft. and 30ft. respectively, above the water-line, each giving access to monitors mounted at the forward and after ends, and port and starboard sides of the platforms. -

ABP South Wales MSMS
South Wales Marine Safety Management System Version 5.0 June 2018 Port Marine Operational Procedures Manual Overview of the ABP Marine Safety Management System The ABP Port Marine Safety Management System (MSMS) framework is intended to provide the foundation for ensuring individual ABP Ports and Harbours consistently and appropriately address the requirements of the Port Marine Safety Code (PMSC) and associated Guide to Good Practice on port marine operations (GtGP). Complementary ABP Marine Policies define the organisation and arrangements that ABP has established to monitor, promote and proactively manage Port Marine Safety. This document describes how the ABP Marine Policies will be effectively implemented at both Group and Port level. This document must be adopted by all ports within the ABP Group. Each port will complete this template document (which is already populated with procedures which must be followed by all ports within the ABP Group) with local operational procedures. The ABP Marine Policy can be found here.

Nafwentbusctteeportsq's NATIONAL
NAfWEntBusCtteePortsQ’s NATIONAL ASSEMBLY FOR WALES ENTERPRISE AND BUSINESS COMMITTEE PORTS AND AIRPORTS INQUIRY Additional Questions on Ports Question 1A - Opportunities for Welsh ports in supporting the renewable energy sector Not really one for me in detail. In general terms there are opportunities to use any steel / coal port facilities. The Port Talbot Tidal Harbour (the outer dock) is used extensively for deep water ore and steel movements. There is a plan for a jetty development. (ABP will be able to give the present construction position) This is a high capacity facility which would be ideal for importing bulk bio-fuel material. Swansea docks have been used to import coal and I recall a plan to import coal and biomass. However I have been unable to locate the detailed papers. Margaret Llewellyn might be able to help you Question 1B – What action should the Welsh Government to support those opportunities There is a difficulty here in terms of the split responsibility of the Welsh Government (WG) and the UK Government, Department for Transport (DfT).(Please see my original brief to the Committee) The Welsh Government commissioned the Wales Freight Strategy (2008) which set out a series of objectives and steps to delivery. I referred to this in my evidence. The Welsh Government is responsible for managing the Freight Facilities Grant and also I believe the Ports Facilities Grant (a DfT funded grant). However the WG is not responsible for investment in ports and receives no black grant element for so doing. As I explained in my evidence the DfT (acting in its capacity as the ‘English Government’) does not see any rationale for funding ports in England. -

Consultation Response PA14. Welsh Local Government Association PDF
NAfW inquiry into international connectivity through Welsh ports and airports February 2012 INTRODUCTION 1. The Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA) represents the 22 local authorities in Wales, and the three national park authorities, the three fire and rescue authorities, and four police authorities are associate members. 2. It seeks to provide representation to local authorities within an emerging policy framework that satisfies the key priorities of our members and delivers a broad range of services that add value to Welsh Local Government and the communities they serve. 3. The WLGA welcomes this opportunity to feed comments into the NAfW‟s inquiry into international connectivity through Welsh ports and airports. Tables 1 and 2 below show that local authorities have a major interest in this issue with ten authorities having an airport/aircraft facility in their area and eight having a port – six have both. Overall, twelve authorities have an airport and/or a port – all of varying degrees of scale and activity. (In addition there are a number of former ports that have ceased to operate on a large scale but now house other activities including fishing and tourism related activity).
