Surveyor Guide Notes on Mar pol CertificateDeficiencies

With marine pollution being a major concern to Port States, Port Slate Control Inspectors are taking a hard

look at pollution prevention arrangements on board. Penalties can be quite stiff far an Owner if the vessel fails

to comply with required regulations. Following is a comprehensive list of the types of deficiencies found. Note¡that in some instances the vessel was detained due lo inaccuracies in the

Supplement to the Marpol Certificate versus actual arrangements on board. Surveyors shall pay strict

attention to statements made in the Supplement and reissue a correct version, if necessary.

1. Oil content meter, printed circuit board for control section to be repaired.

2. Pollution placard not posted.

3. Transfer procedures did not contain procedures for reporting oil discharges (or hazardous material

discharges) into the water.

4. Oil discharge monitors not operating satisfactorily.

5. Oil record book not filled out properly, not up-to-date.

6. 15 ppm alarm out of order.

7. Bilge and sludge pump arrangements not in compliance with Marpol regulations.

8. Oily water separator pump, automatic stopping device not working; soft patches in associated

piping of Oil Water Separator.

9. Marpol Certificate Supplement not in compliance with latest MARPOL Amendments (not latest revision).

10. Sludge tank has direct connection over board through bilge system. Sludge is mixing with Fuel Oil in

settling tank.

11. Quantities of sludge incinerated as indicated in Oil Record Book do not correspond with quantities of fuel

taken on board.

12. Oil Record Book format does not conform to latest

MARPOL Amendments (new format since 4 April 1993).

13. Sludge tank full and bilge separator pump is out of order,

Sludge to be pumped ashore before departure.

14. Tank being used as sludge tank is not the tank indicated

as the sludge tank in the IOPP Certificate Supplement.

15. Supplement to Marpol Certificate, section 2.6.2 has been

filled out while vessel has no waiver from requirements of

Regulation 16.

16. Oil record book. Letter Cedes have not been used

correctly.

17. Part II of Oil Record Book has been used to record Annex

II (NLS) cargoes. Separate Cargo Record Book shall be used

for Annex II cargoes.

18. Oily water separating equipment, 3 way valve in ove r

board line not working.

19. Vessel has incinerator on board which has not been recorded in Supplement to Marpol Certificate.

20. Control light on oily water separator indicates dirty filters are being used.

21. Oil residue tanks are not indicated in the Supplement to Marpol Certificate.

22. Marpol Certificate had expired.

23. Only one entry made in Oil Record Book regarding sludge being pumped into decanting tank.

24. Tank being used for ER oil residue and cargo slop tank is not indicated on approved plans. If tank is not

accepted as a slop tank, then the tank shall be discharged and cleaned.

25. Sludge pump has direct connection overboard; spool piece to be removed and blank fitted.

Surveyor Guide Notes for Hat ch Covers of Dry CargoShips Survey

1. Statutory surveys of hatchcovers and their coamings are to be carried out by the Administration as part of

the annual survey required by article 14 of the International Convention on Load Lines, 1966, as modified bythe 1988 Protocol relating thereto. The International Maritime Or ganization (IMO) adopts the International

Code on the Enhanced Program of Inspections During Surveys for Bulk Carriers and Oil Tankers, 2011 (2011

ESP Code) by means of the Resolution A. 1049 (27) regarding IMO mandatory inspection regime for tankers

and bulk carriers which contains the approved text as set out in the annex to this Resolution.

2. A thorough survey of hatch covers and coamings is only possible by examination in the open as well as

closed positions and should include verification of proper opening and closing operation.

As a result, at least 50% of hatch cover sets should be surveyed open, closed and in operation to the full

extent in each direction, at each annual survey. The closing of the covers should include the fastening of all

peripheral, and cross joint cleats or other securing devices. Particular attention should be paid to the condition

of hatch covers in the forward 25% of the ship’s length, where sea loads are normally greatest.

3. If there are indications of difficulty in operating and securing hatch covers, additional sets above those

required by 2, at the discretion of the surveyor, should be tested in operation.

4. Owners and operators should ensure that facilities and personnel are available to perform the required

hatch cover movements during each annual survey.

5. It is implicit that if the hatch securing system cannot be properly operated, the ship will be obliged to effect

repairs under the supervision of the Administration. Where hatch covers or coamings undergo substantial

repairs, the strength of securing devices should comply with I ACS UR S30.

6. Owners and operators should be made aware that partial replacements in cleating systems have the

potential to introduce imbalance between old and new c leats. This could result in isolated cleats being

subjected to excessive loads, which may then lead to sequential failure.

7. For each hatch cover set, at each annual survey, the following items should be surveyed:

7.1 cover panels, including side plates, and stiffener attachments of opened covers, by close up survey

(for corrosion, cracks, deformation);

7.2 sealing arrangements of perimeter and cross joints (gaskets for condition and permanent

deformation, flexible seals on combination carriers, gasket lips, compression bars, drainage

channels and non return valves);

components);

7.4 closed cover locating devices (for distortion and attachment);

7.5 chain or rope pulleys;

7.6 guides;

7.7 guide rails and track wheels;

8. At each hatchway, at each annual survey, the coamings, with plating, stiffeners and brackets should be

checked for corrosion, cracks and deformation, especially of the coaming tops.

9. Where considered necessary, the effectiveness of sealing arrangements may be proved by hose or chalk

testing supplemented by dimensional measurements of seal compressing components.
