Marine safety awareness campaign

Bahrain’s Coast Guard has launched a marine awareness campaign in cooperation with Bapco Energies as part of ongoing efforts to enhance safety and regulate maritime traffic.

The campaign is being conducted in connection with the ongoing 3D marine survey project in Bahrain’s northern waters. It aims to raise awareness among fishermen, boat owners and sea users about safety guidelines and navigation rules in the project areas.

The Coast Guard urged sea users to maintain safe speeds, avoid approaching or tampering with survey equipment, and refrain from fishing or other marine activities within designated work zones.
