SimPlus has been engaged by MPA to conduct a Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) for the development of offshore containment bunds at the Tuas Port site.
Arising from the un-loading of sand from the delivering vessels for the construction of bunds as well as the movements of barges carrying excavated material for dumping, an FSA is required to ensure that such operations are performed safely within the project site. The study will examine the proposed planning parameters and optimize the construction work and dumping activities to minimize the traffic and marine risk. A standard operating procedure (SOP) is also to be established as a recommendation for the operations.
The study marks the sixth application of VTM in quantitative marine risk assessment.
