A 10-day workshop for port security officials, managers and designated maritime authority officials is being held in Salalah, the Sultanate of Oman (30 Aug-10 Sep). The workshop includes intense table top exercises and drills to help officials prepare for maritime security incidents and to ensure they are able to fully implement IMO measures to enhance maritime security, including the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code). It has been jointly organised by IMO and Oman’s Ministry of Transport and Communications. IMO’s Kiruja Micheni is coordinating the workshop.
