Tristar Shore Team Strengthens Ties with Shipboard Crew on Silver Joan
Shore staff from Tristar’s Maritime Logistics division regularly take the opportunity to visit the company’s vessels to foster better interaction between sea and land-based personnel, and to verify that onboard conditions meet the required Tristar standards.
A team from the Dubai headquarters of the company recently visited one of Tristar’s product carriers, Silver Joan, at Mina Zayed Port in Abu Dhabi. According to Sanjay Sachdev, Technical Director, Maritime Logistics, he found the vessel in good operational condition and the crew members demonstrating good awareness and commitment to safe practices.
“We reviewed existing safety practices and procedures, as well as compliance with safety protocols, emergency preparedness and fostering a proactive safety culture among the crew members,” Sachdev explained, adding that, “Crew members demonstrated a sound understanding of their responsibilities and operational protocols such as watchkeeping, maintenance routines and cargo handling procedures.”
Sachdev also assessed the general welfare of the crew members, including living conditions, access to communication, mental well-being and recreational facilities. He and his team also encouraged the crew members to identify any areas requiring attention. “Overall, the vessel was noted to be in good operational condition with a positive safety and welfare culture. It’s a happy ship,” Sachdev added.
