This Monday, April 21, we carried out a new emergency drill at the Club<\/a>, combining two critical situations in the port environment: a fire on a vessel moored at the fuel station and the deflagration of another vessel after refueling, followed by the skipper falling into the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exercise served to test, in a coordinated and realistic way, the protocols of the Pla d\u2019Autoprotecci\u00f3 (PAU) and to strengthen the response capacity to potential incidents in the port, with the aim of ensuring that all involved teams, both internal and external, can act quickly, efficiently, and safely in the event of an emergency.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A realistic exercise to improve operational response<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the first scenario, the fire on a vessel moored at the fuel station<\/strong> triggered the initial safety measures: the dock was secured, the fuel supply was shut off, and the area was isolated, restricting access. Once the fire was under control, anti-pollution barriers were deployed to prevent spills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second scenario simulated the deflagration of a vessel<\/strong> shortly after refueling. The skipper jumped into the water to escape the flames; he was then rescued by the marina crew and taken to a safe area, while a suitable point was identified to tow the affected vessel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This drill is part of a continuous improvement strategy based on ongoing training, coordination between institutions, and the regular practice of exercises to ensure a safe, efficient, and responsible port. This type of training makes it possible to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Evaluating the speed of detection and alarm activation.

\u2022 Improving coordination between teams in simultaneous scenarios.

\u2022 Practicing rescue maneuvers in a real environment.

\u2022 Reviewing evacuation routes and assembly points.

\u2022 Identifying potential improvements in internal procedures.

\u2022 Strengthening the technical knowledge of port staff.

\u2022 Promoting a culture of prevention among users and crews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coordination between emergency services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The drill involved the participation and collaboration of different emergency services, working together to ensure an orderly and effective response to any emergency:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Bombers de la Generalitat, responsible for fire suppression and control of the simulated incident.

\u2022 Creu Roja, in charge of medical care and assistance to the rescued person.

\u2022 Mossos d\u2019Esquadra and Local Police, managing land security and access control to the port.

\u2022 Servei Mar\u00edtim de la Gu\u00e0rdia Civil, ensuring safety at the harbor entrance and maritime area.

\u2022 The marina crew of Club N\u00e0utic Estartit, together with Ports de la Generalitat and Protecci\u00f3 Civil, coordinating port operations and providing logistical support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commitment to the maritime environment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Beyond personal safety, these exercises also have a direct impact on protecting the marine environment<\/a>.<\/strong> A fast and well-coordinated response is key to reducing environmental risks and preventing damage to the water, fauna, and flora of our surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Club, we will continue to strengthen protocols to ensure a safe and reliable port, committed to protecting people, the environment, and the preservation of the coastline, integrating safety and respect for the environment as key pillars of our management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
