The Arab Shipbuilding and Repair Yard Company (Asry), in coordination with the Ministry of Interior, carried out its yearly International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) exercise to sharpen its emergency response. 

 

The drill brought together The Civil Defence, The Coast Guard, and The Port Police. Participants worked through emergency and rescue scenarios, putting their coordination and quick-thinking skills to the test under realistic conditions. 

 

Mahmood Abdulaziz, Asry HSSE Manager, explained that the exercise aimed to improve readiness and refine the team’s skills. “By simulating real-world scenarios, we ensure our team is prepared to handle all types of risks and emergencies with professionalism and precision,” he said.

He also acknowledged the strong involvement of Bahrain’s security authorities whose cooperation was key to the drill’s success. “Their participation not only supported the execution of the exercise but also strengthened safety measures and enhanced joint field operations,” he added.

 

Through these initiatives, Asry aims to raise the level of efficiency, standardise processes, and share knowledge and abilities to guarantee the greatest degree of readiness and effectively manage emergency situations.--TradeArabia News Service
