The lessons learnt and case study of several methods and techniques at regional and national levels were discussed. Moreover, field trip and observation at the pilot vessel emphasized on energy optimization used and safety at work were carried out in Pattani Province, Southern part of Thailand through observation on demonstration in order to monitor the consumption of fuel used during engine vessel operation. At the end, the participants were expected to transfer and utilize the knowledge and information on energy saving and safety at sea for capture fishery through strengthen on threats, issues and the way forward for the promotion of optimizing energy used and safety at sea in capture fishery and fishing fleet.
