Job Summary
Provide vigilant, accurate and disciplined CCTV monitoring of both BINL onshore facilities and company vessels alongside, at anchorage, underway or deployed offshore, wherever authorized camera coverage is available. Recognize unsafe conditions, unsafe acts and potential security risks or breaches, and promptly alert the people able to intervene. Support the Deputy Security Manager’s investigations by locating, preserving, reviewing and securely handing over relevant CCTV footage and associated records. Produce objective observations and reliable event timelines, maintaining the integrity, confidentiality and traceability of the evidence. Report to the Deputy Security Manager and coordinate assigned monitoring personnel and shift activities. Apply approved security, safety, CCTV and information-handling procedures; distinguish live surveillance from delayed or recorded footage and report limitations in coverage.
Job Details
A1. Start-of-shift readiness and coverage Receive the handover and confirm the current camera register, vessel/site identities, priority activities, open incidents and contacts. Check authorised login, display, recording status where visible, picture clarity, camera labels, timestamps, communications and known blind spots. Record unavailable feeds and confirm agreed alternative arrangements. Expected outcome: A documented readiness check every shift; coverage gaps and outstanding risks are understood before taking over.
A2. Disciplined live monitoring Follow the approved risk-based scan sequence and monitoring intervals for both facilities and available vessel feeds. Give priority to access points, quaysides, transfers, fuel movements and other higher-risk activities. Use approved layouts, playback and pan/tilt/zoom controls without losing priority coverage. Coordinate relief before leaving the monitoring position or undertaking an extended footage search. Expected outcome: Scheduled monitoring is maintained; workload or staffing limitations are reported and covered through agreed arrangements.
A3. Onshore security and safety observations Identify suspicious access, tailgating, perimeter interference, unauthorised vehicles, unusual movements of stores/fuel, camera obstruction and aggression. Recognise visible hazards such as vehicle–pedestrian conflict, blocked emergency routes, unsafe lifting, fire/smoke, spills, unsafe work at height and missing task-specific PPE. Compare observed activity with known authorisations through the responsible contact. Expected outcome: Specific, location-based observations are escalated; appearance or assumptions alone are not treated as proof of misconduct.
A4. Vessel and offshore observations Recognise suspicious approaches, unauthorised boarding, unusual access and interference with vessel equipment or cameras. Identify visible risks during embarkation, gangway use, personnel transfers, bunkering, lifting and mooring, including people near tensioned lines, exposed deck edges or suspended loads. Report suspected distress, fire, man overboard or unsafe deck activity immediately to the Master/bridge. Expected outcome: Warnings identify the vessel, camera/location, observed hazard and event time, supporting prompt onboard assessment.
A5. Stream delay, outage and image limitations Distinguish live, delayed, frozen, replayed and disconnected feeds. Consider low light, glare, weather, occlusion, vessel motion and network delay when interpreting images. Verify suspected freezing using permitted checks; record last reliable image time. For lost offshore links, notify the responsible contact and seek confirmation of local recording or alternative checks through the approved route. Expected outcome: Unavailable images are never reported as confirmed safe conditions; limitations and substitute checks are recorded.
A6. Alarm response and follow-through Assess camera/analytics alarms using available views without delaying urgent notification. Give a concise factual warning, seek acknowledgement and track the response. Continue relevant observation where possible, update responders and preserve the event. If the feed is delayed or recorded, state this clearly and ask the site/vessel to confirm the present condition. Expected outcome: Life-safety warnings take priority over administrative logging or exporting; unresolved urgent alerts are escalated
