PIANC Biennial Technical Visit

PIANC Biennial Technical Visit

At the inaugural meeting in 2006, the Young Professional Commission (YP-Com) set out to organise a technical visit to a unique project every two years targeted at professionals in the maritime and waterfront infrastructure ecosystems around the world.

Since then, the Biennial Technical Visit (BTV) has been the most important and prestigious event on the YP-Com calendar. Past BTV’s include tours to the Venice Locks (Italy), Danube River Integration System (Austria), Maasvlakte 2 (The Netherlands), Panama Locks (Panama), Port of Ghent (Belgium), Great Barrier Reef and several port developments in Sydney and Cairns (Australia).

Held in Singapore from 10th to 13th June 2019, the 7th BTV hosted over 80 international delegates from the maritime industry. This year’s BTV is themed ‘Innovations in Maritime Infrastructure’ which highlights the importance of Ports and innovation in the national development of our nation.

Eng Hup Shipping is proud to be a part of the organising committee in showcasing the vibrant and thriving maritime industry here in Singapore.

Republic of Singapore Navy Visit

Republic of Singapore Navy Visit

Eng Hup Shipping is honoured to be invited by the Republic of Singapore Navy to organise a Safety Day event for 100 navy personnel consisting of both regulars and NSFs.

The event consisted of three segments:

  1. Case study sharing session: Referencing case studies of incidents that happened at sea over the past few years, we prepared a discussion session to analyse the safety gaps and identify solutions to mitigate them.
  2. Safety Equipment Exhibition: We showcased and explained all the safety equipment on board to create a hands-on experience for participants.
  3. Fire-fighting Drill: Participants also had the chance to go on board one of our tugs and witness a fire-fighting drill conducted by our crew in full PPE and gear.

At the end of Safety Day, Eng Hup Shipping was presented with a small token of appreciation by the Navy. We are grateful for the successful event and will continue to welcome future cross exchanges between Eng Hup Shipping and the active Navy units.
