Onboard Lockout Tagout

Onboard Lockout-Tagout depicts real-world lockout-tagout procedures aboard vessels ranging from harbor tugs to super tankers. Lockout-tagout refers to the set of procedures that is essential for protecting personnel, vessels and the environment from damage caused by the inadvertent operation of onboard systems. Lockout ensures that mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic and pressure systems cannot be accidentally energized when personnel are in harm's way or equipment is at risk. Tagout alerts other crewmembers as to the status of a machine or system, about why it has been taken out of service, and the identity of the individual who has applied the lockout.
