Information regarding DSM2023 Fire Safety Meet will be published in the first part of 2023.

DSM2022 Fire Safety Meet took place during DSM2022 on June 14. The meet focused on both theoretical and practical knowledge on how to prevent and respond to onboard fire in new fuels, but also in regulations, insurance and the newest research in the area.

The day was directed to both onboard personal and those interested in fire safety. Since the crew onboard is of outmost importance to prevent fire, and is the responsible fire brigade onboard, DSM and Nordkompass we reached out with a special welcome to those who are working at sea to participate, at Donsö or via the live streaming.

The ongoing work towards a climate neutral transport sector means that alternative fuels, new energy sources and different technologies are developed, evaluated and implemented. The risk profiles therefore change for vessels, the cargo (i.e. trucks, cars) as well as for the whole system of logistics and requires knowledge on how to manage fire safety.

DSM-22-Dag-1-308

During DSM and the Fire Safety Meet we provided the best possible update regarding fire safety by experts in different areas.

The morning was  a seminar session, among the speakers were Jonas Bjelfvenstam Director General for the Swedish Transport Agency, Sifis Papageorgiou, Project Officer of EMSA with over 25 years of experience, Julia Burgén, researcher and expert at human factors in fire safety, RISE and Ola Willstrand battery expert of RISE. The seminar was moderated by Martin Carlsson, project manager fire safety, Stena Teknik. 

After lunch, the practical session started, with demonstrations of practical exercises an equipment and different fire suppression technologies were tested in the port of Donsö.

During the end of the day, Nordkompass handed out the new Fire safety award.
