| We are issuing an important Safety Alert relating to hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) knockdown. This alert highlights the serious risks associated with H₂S exposure and the potential for sudden collapse (“knockdown”) when concentrations are high. |
| This Safety Alert draws strongly on a recent paper submitted by IBTA, IFSMA and the Nautical Institute to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) using research by Vistrato Limited, and Safety Alert 26‑1 issued by the Bahamas Maritime Authority. ICHCA extends sincere thanks to these organisations for their valuable contributions and continued commitment to improving safety across our industry. |
| We encourage all members to review the Safety Alert and share the learning with operational, safety, training and emergency response teams. |
