Items and actions

Actions from previous meeting

  • A017 – on track for deadline 21 Dec
  • AO17.1 - Risk to register – new risks will be up to date in January. Liaising with CalMac and FMPG (Action CalMac)
  • A018 – Port authority is looking for certified crew – not to carry out function but to be there to ensure procedure is followed / observation. This needs IGF certification for Master and Chief (deck crew). Also, execution of bunkering analysis - trials are being done for this (Action – FMPG / CMAL)
  • A021 – this will continue to be ongoing. Need to supply with list to date (Action – FMPG)

  • A024 – Action closed
  • A025 – need to quantify schedule of cost impacted on the list of spares needed (Action – FMPG)

Hot topics

  • dry docking date – 18th  Dec
  • [REDACTED] is behind – major steel work to be done. And they are in front of us. Risk of delay due to this
  • dry dock on 5-day window – 3 days minimum. Day 1 enter dry dock, drop and pressure wash – then out next day
  • MCA are content - all paper work and documentation is there
  • Biggest risk is rework on shafts but having completed dock trials last week – everything is looking good
  • LNG - Still carries a risk
  • [REDACTED]  –Concluded that they’ll leave site on 17th - 4000 hours left of manual works 

Any other business 

  • launch of 802 – decision last week was to separate the two events and not have a naming ceremony and keep it in FMPG as a yard event
  • communications need to be well managed and in sync across teams to avoid confusion of what a ‘launch’ is

Meeting end: 13:34
