Wharves and Loading Facilities

The OH&S Manager of any marine facility where there is a risk of persons going into the water undetected, and where this event could result in the loss of life, is acutely aware of the company's obligations to the health and safety of its employees.

Loading facilities such as the Dalrymple Bay and Hay Point Coal terminals located in Northern Queensland, Australia are good examples of where Mobilarm man overboard alarm systems can provide indispensable protection for the workforce.

The Dalrymple Bay Coal terminal is one of Australia's largest, most efficient coal delivery and export facilities dispatching around 60 metric tons of coal every year. With a wharf that extends 3.8 kilometres off the Port of Hay Point and where tidal currents in excess of 3 knots are common, it is vital to safeguard workers from going into the water undetected.

Knowing that there is an emergency within seconds of it occurring means that a rescue operation can be set in motion without delay and the likelihood of a fatality is greatly reduced; that's where Mobilarm man overboard alarm systems are a real safety asset. The system creates a wireless network to cover the key areas of your facility, which monitors and reports on the safety of your employees to provide an automatic, instant alarm in an emergency.
