Vessel Security Program
OMSA has partnered with the internationally recognized Hudson Trident Marine Services to develop a series of Coast Guard-approved and internationally compliant vessel security plans.  The OMSA/Hudson Trident security plans are unique in that they are web-based, allowing participating vessel operators to enter vessel data online and print their vessel plans directly from the Internet.  OMSA also provides annual drills, audit assistance and crew security training to meet the regulatory requirements of the security plans.  To access vessel plans, click on the Vessel Security Program link and enter a security user name and password.   For more information or if you have forgotten your user name and password, contact Ken Parris, OMSA Vice President, at 504-734-7622.

OMSA Safety Training Program 

OMSA offers a safety training program for company vessel crewmembers. In 2005, the OMSA program was accepted as meeting the requirements of the SafeGulf program, an offshore operator safety orientation program which is now being required by many oil and gas production companies.  The program focuses on maritime-related safety and was developed through the expertise of OMSA’s Safety Committee.   Member companies have the option of using in-house training or sending crewmembers to an accredited training institution.    For additional information, contact Ken Parris, OMSA Vice President, at 504-734-7622.
