How does EMSA verify that the vessels are ready to operate?

 

EMSA vessels perform drills and international exercises regularly. Our experts go on board to monitor the performance of the contracted vessels, the crew and the equipment. Further information is available in the annual reports produced on drills and exercises: Network of Stand-by Oil Spill Response Vessels: Drills and Exercises. Annual Reports.
