It's typhoon season again. Are you ready?

How do typhoons form?

Said the typhoon, also known as hurricane, refers to the form in tropical or subtropical tropical cyclone on 26 ℃ above the vast sea. In the summer and autumn of each year, the northwest Pacific Ocean adjacent to our country produces many violent storms of typhoon, some dissipate in the sea, some land, bring wind and rain.

Tropical ocean is the hometown of typhoon. There are two main conditions for the formation of typhoon. Second, abundant moisture.

Common sense of ship defense against typhoon:

1.Don't sail against the wind during the typhoon.

2. Before the typhoon, the vessel should obey the command and take shelter from the wind immediately.

3. If the vessel is hit by a typhoon on the way, please contact the local maritime department as soon as possible, report the location, ask for help and call the police at 12395. While waiting for rescue, you should take the initiative to take emergency measures, and quickly and decisively take measures to leave the typhoon, such as stop (delay in navigation), wrap (around), wear (through quickly).

4. Modern equipment such as beacon, radio communication and satellite telephone shall be provided on board when conditions permit. In the absence of radio communication equipment, when it is found that passing ships, airplanes or close to land, objects can be used to timely emit visible distress signals, such as pile "SOS", set off fireworks, give out light (sound) signals, and shake colorful objects.

5, port assignments to fully estimate the ship's own ability to resist station, port of geographical environment, the development trend of the typhoon on Hong Kong may be the worst affected, to ensure that host, pay machine, windlass, the normal work of the steering gear, ensure adequate stability, pay close attention to the big waves in the ship manoeuvring, switching scheme and operating properly. The combination of vehicle and rudder can restrain the ship's yaw. When using the car, do not rush to use the high speed, should not make the main engine to open or stop, the speed of the car suddenly high or low. Make the bow and waves at a 30 degree Angle, reduce the force on the ship, keep the bow and wind at a slight Angle, and make sure the wind is steady on the side. Beware of the ship breaking over. In the big wind and waves, we must follow the basic operation method of "slow ship speed, good rudder effect".

6. The anchoring vessel shall prevent it from touching the dock or other ship, causing damage to the hull, blade and dock, etc.; To prevent the cable break, the pier bitt break; Avoid grounding; Port equipment (crane) to prevent dumping, and damage to the ship; To know that the ship is difficult to operate, the role of car, rudder is not; To prevent possible damage to the crew by breaking the cable; He must prevent his ship from anchoring against the ship. To increase the ship's draft, as far as possible to reduce the ship's wind area; Be prepared for collision avoidance. Clean other boats around the boat as much as possible. Keep a safe distance from other boats, cranes or obstacles in the port. Move the vessel to an unaffected area before the future of the typhoon; Rational use of the bitt, the mooring point should not be excessively concentrated, and the mooring cable should not be subjected to vertical force up and down. The cable Angle should be maintained with the horizontal force greater than the vertical force. To choose good berth, berth to cover the typhoon winds to know holding ground, water depth, whether anchorage and spacious, water, surrounding the situation of the mooring ship, ensure that host, pay machine, windlass, steering gear is in normal work condition, if found anchor, broken line, should immediately decisive anchor or adjust the position, preventing grounding or collision his ship; Should strengthen duty, fasten safety rope, keep in touch with related post or department, pay attention to protect personal safety. , more attention must be paid to the captain and want to make the ship had enough stability, hold items to prevent movement, to work together with your chief engineer, ensure the normal work of the four machine, should pay close attention to the typhoon occurrence, development and movement direction, completes the prevention measures, security work to leave room, do specific issues specific analysis, time to pay special attention to the prevention against Taiwan work.

7. The calm of the wind and waves shortly after the strong typhoon, which may be the calm when the eye of the typhoon passes, should not be allowed for the ship owners at the port to go back to strengthen the ship in order to protect their property.
