On 15 April, without notification and scenario, an anti-terrorism drill at Odfjell Terminals Korea (OTK) was executed, joint with the military, police, fire station and other authorities.

The drill simulated that terrorists had attached an explosion sticker at the AN storage tank. The terrorists then moved quickly to OTK’s main building and then staged a hostage situation.

The military and police were brought in to supress the terrorists and complete the drill. By bringing in external authorities, the terminal was able to practice proper collaboration during an emergency event, hopefully improving its capabilities in case of such a situation.
