In addition, concern nas been expressed with respect to the adequacy of life-saving appliances, and the quality and quantity of crew and their training and experience in operating these vessels and dealing with emergency situations, including evacuation. Fire and Flooding are the two potential hazards in ships. Fire fighting needs to be seen in broader sense in terms of fire, fire prevention, fire detection and fire fighting.
