2. Equipment
Every ship is equipped with: -fire pumps, -fire mains, -fire hydrants, -fire hoses, -fire extinguishers. Cargo ships that have 1000 tons of gross tonnage have at least 2 fire pumps that are independently driven.

3. A fire pump is a part of a fire sprinkler system's water supply and powered by electric, diesel or steam.
The pump intake is either connected to the public underground water supply piping, or a static water source.
The pump provides water flow at a higher pressure to the sprinkler system risers and hose standpipes.
Sanitary, ballast, bilge and/or general service pumps can be used as fire pumps only if they are not used for pumping oil.

4. Fire hydrants are used for accessing water which is used for extiquishing the fire with the fire hose.
They are placed so they can be easily accessed in case of an emergancy.

5. A fire extinguisher is an active fire protection device used to extinguish or control small fires, often in emergency situations.
There are two main types of fire extinguishers: stored-pressure and cartridge-operated.
On the ship, there should be also a reasonable ammount of portable fire extuguishers

6. A fire hose is a high-pressure hose that carries water or other fire retardant (such as foam) to a fire to extinguish it.
It attaches to a fire hydrant.
Most modern hoses use a synthetic fiber like polyester or nylon filament that provide additional strength and better resistance to abrasion.
