Man Overboard
A launch was to transfer two persons to a vessel at anchor, via the accommodation ladder lowered with its bottom platform near the water level. After they were transferred to the ladder lower platform, the coxswain brought the launch close in so the launch crew member could transfer some items of baggage to them. During this operation, the launch's stern came under the accommodation ladder's lower platform and raised it in the rising sea/swell. As the launch pulled away, the ladder dropped suddenly, resulting in one of the transferred persons losing his footing and hand-hold. He fell into the sea but was immediately rescued by the launch's crew.
Root cause/contributory factors
1.Lack of planning -during arrival pre-transfer conference between ship and launch, it was decided to use the accommodation ladder only without considering other options, such as pilot or rope ladder, personnel basket and crane;
2.The launch was not manoeuvred correctly, permitting the stern section to go under the lowered platform;
3.The launch design was poor for the transfer of personnel, having no support rail on deck;
4.The accommodation ladder lower platform fender was improperly rigged;
5. Life vests were not supplied by the launch service nor offered by ship's crew, against company procedures;
Preventative actions
Careful judgment is to be made on the deployment of safe access. Where there is the possibility of a sea or swell that could allow the launch to make contact with the platform, a conventional pilot ladder or combination accommodation ladder is used.
A life vest must be made available, and personnel strongly encouraged to wear it during transfers.
Baggage should not be handed from launch to persons standing on the lower platform of a ladder; instead it should be hauled up using appropriate means, manually on messenger lines lowered from deck or by crane and sling.
