American Club
American Steamship Owners Mutual Protection and Indemnity Association, Inc. (the American Club) was established in New York in 1917. It is the only mutual Protection and Indemnity Club domiciled in the United States – indeed, in the entire Americas. The Club is a member of the International Group of P&I Clubs, a collective of thirteen mutuals which together provide Protection and Indemnity insurance for some 90% of all world shipping. Protection and Indemnity insurance (commonly referred to as “P&I”) provides cover to shipowners and charterers against third-party liabilities encountered in their commercial operations. Responsibility for damage to cargo, for pollution, for the death, injury or illness of passengers or crew and for damage to docks and other installations are examples of typical exposures. Running in parallel with a ship’s hull and machinery cover, traditional P&I such as that offered by the American Club distinguishes itself from ordinary forms of marine insurance by being based on the not-for-profit principle of mutuality where Members of the Club are both the insurers and the assureds.

According to Andrew Glen, the advancement of maritime automation and digitalization will bring about the need for relevant training.

Session #3: Human factors
Dean Crossley, Loss Prevention Manager, West of England, discussed the normalization of deviance in workplace practices, highlighting a specific example where a ship’s crew used the coaming as a makeshift walkway to access the hatch cover more easily. Based on this incident, he emphasized the need for a multi-faceted approach to prevent such behaviors. This includes fostering a strong safety culture that promptly identifies and corrects deviations from established protocols and encouraging open communication so crew members can report unsafe behaviors without fear of repercussions.
Allan Raymund Olano, General Manager and Consultant, Green-Jakobsen A/S, underlined that performance is not merely the end result of work but is fundamentally about the processes leading to those results. He explained that performance encompasses physical abilities, cognitive skills, emotions, and interpersonal interactions. According to Allan Raymund Olano’s presentation, to enhance performance, it’s essential to understand these factors and create conditions conducive to improvement.
Capt. Sundeep Sequeira, Area Sales Manager – Singapore, One Learn Global, explored trends regarding seafarer mental health. According to the presentation, even though seafarers’ mental health is crucial to their safety and well-being, seafarers experience depression at a rate of 14.14%, significantly higher than the 3.8% observed in the general population. Thus, Capt. Sundeep Sequeira highlighted the pressing need for companies to adopt solutions that address this worrying trend and provide support for their crew.
Capt. Kunal Nakra, General Manager, Safety Governance and Performance, Swire Shipping, gave a presentation which encouraged the audience to adopt a different perspective, urging them to move away from viewing human performance solely through the lens of “people are the problem,” and instead recognize the complexities involved when things go wrong. Capt. Nakra explained that seafarers frequently encounter obstacles that require them to adapt and be flexible while still achieving their goals as expected, which puts significant pressure on them.
Capt. Jagadeesan Natarajan, General Manager, Orient Marine Co., Ltd. (Singapore Branch), expressed a collection of insightful thoughts during the panel discussion.

During the fourth panel discussion, Capt. Raghav Gulati, Safety and Technical Operations Manager, Anglo American, and Capt. Chuxing Peng, Deputy General Manager, Quality, Safety, Security and Environment, Pacific International Lines Pte ltd., shared their thoughts with the audience regarding the development of a safety culture.

He also noted that consistent training is vital for retaining seafarers and ensuring they remain updated with the latest technology in the industry. According to Capt.

Capt. Chatur Wahyu, Director, Singapore Maritime Academy, Singapore Polytechnic, highlighted Singapore Maritime Academy ‘s commitment to training international seafarers and maritime personnel in the safe handling of alternative marine fuels. The training includes practical safety exercises and incorporates advanced technologies like AI and AR/VR for immersive learning experiences. According to Capt.

The fifth panel discussion saw Siti Noraini Zaini, Regional Manager (Asia), IBIA, and Capt. Saunak Rai, General Manager, FueLNG / Vice Chairman, ICS Singapore Branch, tackle the subject of the complexities in maritime training. Siti Noraini Zaini pointed out that training on how to handle alternative fuels is crucial, as most staff are not equipped with such knowledge, but energy transition is a reality. Capt. Saunak Rai echoed the sentiment, stating that simply investing in green technology is insufficient, as the personnel operating this technology must also be adequately prepared.
Session #6: Crew management & resilience
Atty. Iris Baguilat, President of Döhle Seafront Crewing (Manila), Inc., delivered a presentation underscoring the crucial role of loss prevention and compensable claims in the maritime industry. She focused specifically on how these issues relate to the Magna Carta of Filipino Seafarers, a key legal framework for the protection of seafarers’ rights. In addition, Baguilat highlighted the critical importance of ensuring proper medical care for seafarers, emphasizing that it is not enough to simply discuss these issues; stakeholders must actively stand by their crew and offer support when health concerns arise.
