Confined Space Operations: Key Risks, Safety Protocols & Rescue Requirements

Ship construction at a dry port

Confined space work is among the most hazardous activities in maritime, oil and gas, and industrial operations. Limited access, poor ventilation, and hidden atmospheric hazards combine to amplify the risks of asphyxiation, toxic exposure, engulfment, and entrapment. When things go wrong, rescue is difficult, visibility is poor, and escape routes are restricted. Prevention and preparation are the only reliable defences.
