Advice to Masters
When a casualty occurs, the owners and The Swedish Club should be notified immediately to arrange for the necessary attendance.
In any casualty, as the Master, you play a crucial role. You are on the scene, with the ability to minimise the casualty’s consequences and facilitate the handling of matters between the owners and The Swedish Club.
Oil pollution incidents in the United States must be dealt with in accordance with the Response Plan for the Vessel concerned. The master must immediately notify the appointed Qualified Individual(QI) and the Oil Spill Manager (OSRO).
Advice to Masters is designed to support that process and not supersede or contradict any instructions issued by the owners. It aims to provide you with advice relating to a casualty from the underwriter’s point of view.
