1. INTRODUCTION • This quick reference guide is only intended to provide an overview of DMSB and outline the operating principles and rules. The requirements for safety and protection of the environment are enshrined within our procedures and specific plans and whilst these are not included within this guide users and stakeholders are asked to ensure familiarisation and awareness of individual responsibilities 2
2. WHAT IS THE DARWIN MARINE SUPPLY BASE • DMSB is an 8.55 Ha facility, within the Darwin East Arm Wharf. This facility designed specifically for support of the offshore industry, incorporating many of the unique requirements for this industry, comprising of the following; • Three working berths allowing simultaneous mooring of 1 x 70m and 2 x 90m vessels. The length of the wharf is 265m. All berths have capability to load fuel, direct from Vopac terminal and water from onsite tanks with a maximum of pumping rates of 250 tonne per hour to a single loading point. Berths 1 and 2 are also able to load drilling bulk products direct from an on-site mud plant once completed. A barrier is present around the culvert. • Berth 1 designated heavy lift berth 100kpa loading – Designed for mobile cranes up to 500t. • Berth 1 will be used for the rock loadout. This will be fenced off with a separate point of entry to the DMSB. • Berth 2 & 3 wharf loading is 50kpa or 5098kg Force per M2 – designed for mobile cranes & crawler cranes up to 180t. • Bunker & water points Berth 1 are at the 50m mark 3
2. WHAT IS THE DARWIN MARINE SUPPLY BASE • Bunker & water points Berth 2 & 3 are at the 145m & 230m marks • Stand Pipes for the water will be supplied by the MSB with meters. Standard 80mm stand pipes fed by 200mm pipe. Supply vessels to provide their own hose. DMSB will have 2 spare hoses if required • Each berth has approximately 4,000m2 of adjacent laydown area which will allow staging of outbound cargo and dispersal of inbound cargo on completion of the cargo handling session. Requirements for laydown outside the cargo handling session should be agreed with DMSB Management Team. • Transit bunds for dangerous goods and waste products, located on Berth 2, and are also offered on a common user basis for emergencies only. All cargo placed in the bunds must be labelled and agreed with DMSB Management Team in order to ensure correct segregation. • Backup power is available for 1 berth only. It will power floodlights, security and administration offices • Vessels entering Port Darwin, which includes DMSB, remain under the operational control of Darwin Port Corporation and their Act & By-Laws. 4

5. Whilst Alongside • In the event of a cyclone warning or immediate threat of extreme weather the Harbourmaster will advise vessels of port operational status which includes DMSB. • Vessels alongside must maintain a mooring watch and are responsible for vessel security in accordance with the vessel security plan. • The vessel should provide notification to DMSB Security of any third party service providers or delivery vehicles requiring access to DMSB in order to prevent delay in entry. • Vessel maintenance is permitted whilst alongside DMSB with prior notification, particularly if hot work is to be carried out. Permit to work system is in place and forms will be required prior to commencement of works. Forms available on request 10
5. Whilst Alongside • The need for personnel to pass through operational areas when proceeding to / from shore leave or taking part in crew change can present specific hazards to the individuals. In order to minimise this risk in certain circumstances it may be safer to direct taxis or mini buses direct to the vessel however this may not be practical during cargo handling operations. In all instances the vessel should contact DMSB security in order to discuss the safest method of facilitating the personnel movement. In prearranged instances where individual(s) are to proceed on foot this should be via the pedestrian walkway and taking the shortest route to / from the vessel avoiding any on- going operations. The minimum PPE requirement for pedestrians in the MSB is High Visibility Vest Hard Hat Steel Cap Boots Safety Glasses • Walking through areas where operations are taking place should be avoided, but if absolutely necessary consent must be obtained from the person in charge of the operation. 11
6. WORKING AT OR DELIVERING TO DMSB Security • DMSB has a Maritime Security Plan (MSP) in accordance with Maritime Transport and Offshore Facilities Security Act and Regulations 2003 (MTOFSA/R), this plan is approved by the Office of Transport Security. ASCO will ensure that any such restrictions are notified to relevant parties. Any observation of suspicious acts, behaviours or persons should be reported immediately to the DMSB Security Guard. • Personnel working within DMSB will be required to hold an MSIC card, or be escorted by and MSIC holder, see www.infrastructure.gov.au/msic • All personnel must enter and exit through the security gate or the pedestrian gate by way of swipe card • All vessels berthing at DMSB must supply a crew list to the Security Guardhouse • Threats to Security • The Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO) may receive a Security Direction from the Secretary at the Office of Transport Security (OTS) to raise the MARSEC level at the site on the basis of credible intelligence of a specific threat. • When additional security measures are initiated the PFSO will provide direction to the MSB Security staff with respect to any additional security measures to be applied at the site whilst the directive is in force. The PFSO will also advise staff/clients of any changes in responsibilities, or actions that may be required during this period of heightened alert. 12
6. WORKING AT OR DELIVERING TO DMSB Site Induction • Site inductions are mandatory to ensure all personnel working at, delivering to or visiting DMSB have a full understanding of security and safety requirements. • For regular workers and delivery drivers the induction will be via an online induction. In order to provide a consistent approach with DPC, DMSB should at the same time be notified of any one off visitors to MSBsecurity@ascoworld.com. • Visitors to DMSB will receive a visitor induction and should be accompanied at all times by a person that has received the full DMSB Induction. One visit policy is in place. Any subsequent visits will require full induction and issuing of swipe card. • Vessel crew are allowed to travel through the DMSB facility unescorted, provided the vessel master, owner or agent provided a crew list and vessel details to DMSB Security in order to monitor and control entry and exit to the DMSB facility. If a crew list and vessel details are not received vessel crew could be refused entry. Access to DMSB • Workers and drivers that have completed the full DMSB induction will be issued with a smart card which will permit entry to the MSB by the Electronic Access Control System. • Given the nature of DMSB operations and the associated hazards the driving of light and passenger vehicles on site will be restricted to company vehicles or those making deliveries. In general terms trucks should enter via the main road way with the driver using the smart card to raise the barrier with the 13 same process applying for exit. Flashing lights are mandatory
