  • Marine engineering;
  • Maintenance and repair, etc.

Current test contains Seagull CES questions on the subject «Ex Basic Refresher and Assessment». Those questions can be used for competence verification specialist capable of preventing accidental situations related with transporting safety, or also for self-examination.

«Ex Basic Refresher and Assessment» subject includes theoretical and practical information about advanced training for work on any type of vessel. The test is designed to provide advanced training for personnel working on ships of various types. The course provides essential training for personnel working with potentially explosive atmospheres on board vessels. This advanced training revisits fundamental concepts of explosion hazards, flammable materials, and safe work practices in hazardous areas. Participants will refresh their knowledge of Ex equipment classifications, marking systems, and proper usage procedures. The test emphasizes the importance of risk assessment and permit-to-work systems for tasks involving Ex areas. Through practical exercises and simulations, trainees will demonstrate their ability to identify and mitigate explosion risks. The assessment component evaluates participants’ understanding of Ex principles and their competency in applying safe work practices. This refresher training ensures that personnel maintain their awareness and proficiency in handling potentially explosive environments. By completing this course, individuals contribute to a safer working environment and minimize the risk of accidents involving flammable materials on board vessels.
