Seasonal Content
Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB) Season
The BMSB season runs annually between September and April, affecting certain cargoes and vessel operations bound for Australia and New Zealand. To prevent the introduction of this invasive pest, authorities apply seasonal treatment and certification requirements. Failure to comply can result in delays, inspections and operational disruption on arrival.
Enclosed Space Fatalities
More than 1,010 ship and shore workers have lost their lives in enclosed spaces between 2000 - 2024. A stark reminder of a persistent and preventable safety issue.
These incidents stem from factors like time pressure, inconsistent training, communication gaps, and unpredictable cargo behaviours. The solution lies in stronger awareness, a safer culture, and ensuring crews have the knowledge, equipment, and confidence to treat enclosed spaces with the seriousness they require.
The UK P&I Club continues to invest in research, guidance, training, and case‑study learning to help reduce these tragedies, because even one life lost is too many.
