SECURITY BULWARK, PERIMETER PROTECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF PROTECTING A PERIMETER
In one aspect, the present invention provides a security bulwark (1) for mounting outside a perimeter railing of a vessel or marine installation. The bulwark has a front face (2) comprising a projecting mound (3a, 3b). The mound has an underside (4a, 4b) which provides the bulwark with an overhang. The mound is also convex in a direction (A-A') of the breadth of the bulwark (1). The invention also provides a perimeter protection system comprising a plurality of such security bulwarks arranged side-by-side and adjacent to each other. Finally, the invention further provides a method of protecting a perimeter of a vessel or marine installation. The method comprises positioning a plurality of security bulwarks side-by-side and adjacent to each other along a perimeter railing of a vessel or marine installation, attaching some of the plurality of security bulwarks to the railing, and connecting remaining ones of the plurality of security bulwarks which are not attached to the railing to ones of the plurality of security bulwarks which are attached to the railing. Thus even if a security bulwark (1) cannot be mounted directly to the perimeter railing, for example because of a gap in the railing or an obstruction in the way of the railing, the bulwark can still be positioned in the same location outside the railing and securely mounted in that location by being connected to an adjacent security bulwark which can be mounted to the perimeter railing.
