Current test contains Seagull CBT questions on the subject «Fire Fighting». Those questions can be used for competence verification specialist capable of preventing accidental situations related with transporting safety, or also for self-examination.

«Fire Fighting» subject includes theoretical and practical information about advanced training for work on any type of vessel. The test assesses both knowledge and skills in fire prevention, detection and suppression on various types of vessels. It includes multiple-choice questions on fire chemistry, classes of fire and appropriate extinguishing agents for different scenarios. Participants must demonstrate their understanding of SOLAS and STCW regulations related to fire safety and emergency procedures. Scenario-based questions evaluate decision-making in fire emergencies, such as containment strategies and evacuation protocols. Practical components test the ability to operate firefighting equipment, including portable extinguishers, fixed systems and breathing apparatus. The exam covers shipboard firefighting organization, including the roles of the fire team, communication and coordination during drills. Questions on smoke control, ventilation shutdown and hazard assessment ensure preparedness for real-life onboard fire incidents. Successful completion confirms the candidate’s competence in firefighting techniques, enhancing crew safety and compliance with international maritime standards.
