The Maritime Fire Base is housed at the West Coast Pier, a designated public landing place for the embarkation and disembarkation of passengers from harbour craft. The WCP offers full Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) facilities. Some $12 million was spent on developing the Fire Base and the two fire-fighting craft.

Manned by trained emergency response personnel, these facilities would provide response to shipboard fires and other marine emergencies such as oil and chemical spills in the Singapore port.

The new facilities underscore Singapore's commitment to promoting maritime safety and the safeguarding of the marine environment.
