I agree with you Bob It does seem a bit simplistic, but I suppose it's all there in a nutshell. The causes, actions taken, and the result of those actions. It was made by a ship owner (BP) For the Shipping Federation, the federation of ship owners. The master barely got a mention, and of course the Master is a company rep, and not a member of the crew.
The only potentially serious case of fire I was involved in was when the 2nd Cook & Baker left some bread to dry out on top of an oven. Oven was left on, and the burning bread set the deckhead smouldering. Fortunately it was fire retardant and all that happened was a great deal of smoke throughout the accommodation at 03.00ish. My Emergency Station was on the wheel, which I thought was a pretty good place to be at that time.
