What safety features are there onboard the ships?
The ships’ safety systems are divided into ship handling and cargo handling systems. The ship handling includes sophisticated radar and positioning systems that alert the crew to other traffic and hazards around the ship. There are also distress systems and beacons that automatically send out signals if the ship is in difficulty. The cargo handling system has an extensive instrumentation package that safely shuts down the system if it starts to operate out of predetermined parameters. There are also gas and fire detection systems.
