 Objective: Oil must not be reached shore line.
 Strategic:
 Apply Oil dispersant with Support vessels todemolished oil slick
 Trajectory of Oil fate by using Oil Modeling and Air
surveillance to monitor oil path
 Notify Mutual Support Organization on standby
with dedicated response equipment and beingprocess for activating.

life, guarantee 1 year after
installed• Purchase in Y2010• Failed at 8.5 bars within 30 minsof discharge operation• 10 bars maximum operation

Floating Hose testing Similar hose brand (burstincident – same
position/service life) removed
and conducted burst test andfound burst at 26 bar g.
 Other hose brand (servicesince Y2002) current kept as
spare, conducted burst test
and burst at 63 bar g.
