rescue and rescue work to minimize human casualties and property losses. In the
afternoon of December 27, the Yibin Maritime Bureau cooperated with Sanjiang
Water Rescue Service Center to held 2019 comprehensive water pollution prevention
emergency rescue drill at the Xianglutan Wharf. The entire drill was divided into
three subjects: "rescue of drowning personnel in the ship, rescue of ship fires
and recovery of oil spills from ships".
At the end of the rescue, the rescue department found that an oil barrel fell
into the river during a ship fire rescue and an oil spill occurred. The rescue
department immediately issued instructions to organize search and rescue
forces to carry out recovery of oil spills from ships. It was used oil absorbent pads
and oil absorbent booms. After the recovery was completed, the river surface
resumed navigation. The layout of entire drill fits the actual situation, and
emergency operations are close to actual combat.
