(http://www.MaritimeCyprus.com) 2019 saw the implementation of regulations related to crew, lifesaving, fire safety, environment, cargo, and certification. This year too there will be numerous regulatory changes and for the first time the industry will see a global regulation coming into force that is identified by only the year suffixing the letters IMO, i.e. the highly anticipated ‘IMO 2020’ sulphur cap. In addition, various other regulations will be implemented globally by the IMO and ILO over the next 12 months.

This article provides an overview of some of the important international regulations that enter into force in 2020, including some key domestic regulatory changes in relation to air emissions and ship recycling.

  Resolution MSC.402(96): Maintenance of lifeboats, rescue boats, launching appliances and release gear

The requirements in MSC.402(96) relate to the following SOLAS regulations:

SOLAS regulation III/20 – Operational readiness, maintenance and inspections; and

SOLAS regulation III/36 – Instructions for on-board maintenance

Weekly and monthly inspections, and routine maintenance can be carried out either by authorized service providers or ships’ crew, under the guidance of a senior officer. Annual and five yearly inspections, tests etc., should be conducted by “certified personnel” of either the manufacturer or a service provider having an authorization from the Flag Administration or its recognized organizations. Detailed criteria for the certification of personnel have been provided and the certificate will expire three years from the date of issue. Owners and managers must have health, safety and environment (HSE) procedures in place covering all activities, which their crew and any personnel carrying out maintenance, thorough examinations, operational testing overhaul and repair must comply with.

We also take this opportunity to remind operators of the importance of proper onboard crew training as insufficient onboard procedures and crew competence have been identified as contributing factors in many lifeboat and rescue boat accidents. While crew members that have obtained a formal “Certificate of proficiency in survival craft, rescue boats and fast rescue boats” from recognized training institutions have demonstrated sufficient competence and knowledge to enable them to, in general terms, take charge of a survival craft or rescue boat during and after launch, they may not be properly trained to operate the type of lifeboat and rescue boat carried on board their current ship of employment. Please see ‘New IMO procedures for maintenance and inspection of life-saving appliances’ for further information.

This statement of compliance should be kept onboard during the period of its validity, i.e. the calendar year in which it is issued and the first five months of the subsequent calendar year.

  1 OCTOBER 2020

Resolution MEPC.312(74), MEPC.314(74), MEPC.316(74), and MEPC.317(74): Use of electronic record books  

As alternative to hard copy record books, the IMO’s MEPC’74 adopted amendments regarding the use of electronic record books (ERB). The IMO hopes this will help reduce the heavy burden associated with paperwork and contribute to environmental initiatives. The IMO also foresees benefits when it comes to the retention of records by companies, crew and officers. The IMO guidelines only apply to the use of electronic record books on board to meet the requirements of the following record books:

Oil Record Book, parts I and II (MARPOL Annex I, regulations 17.1 and 36.1);

Cargo Record Book (MARPOL Annex II, regulation 15.1);

Garbage Record Book, parts I and II (MARPOL Annex V, regulation 10.3);

Ozone-depleting Substances Record Book (MARPOL Annex VI, regulation 12.6);

Recording of the tier and on/off status of marine diesel engines (MARPOL Annex VI, regulation 13.5.3);

Record of Fuel Oil Changeover (MARPOL Annex VI, regulation 14.6); and

Record Book of Engine Parameters (NOX Technical Code, paragraph 6.2.2.7).

An important requirement is that any electronic record book should be provided with written confirmation by the Flag State and it should be carried onboard for the purpose of regulatory surveys or inspections. With regards to PSC inspections of electronic records, MEPC.312(74) states that “It is recommended that if a ship cannot produce the electronic record book or a declaration provided by the Administration during the PSC inspection, the PSC officer should request to view an alternative verified copy of the records or a hard copy record book for verification”.

  Resolution MEPC.313(74) and MEPC.317(74): Amendments to NOx technical code 2008 

There are two NOx certification schemes for diesel engines fitted with selective catalytic reduction (SCR), which are:

Scheme A: where the SCR and the engine are tested together, i.e. combined testing

Scheme B: they are certified separately before installation

Currently, Scheme B can only be used where the Flag Administration deems that Scheme A is not appropriate. Under the new amendments, the Administration’s approval is not needed when applying for Scheme B.

  28 OCTOBER 2020

Resolution MEPC.300(72): Ballast water management system (BWMS)  

Ballast Water Management systems installed on or after 28 October 2020 must be approved in accordance with the IMO Code for Approval of Ballast Water Management Systems (BWMS Code), whereas systems installed before 28 October 2020 must be approved either in accordance with BWMS Code or the 2016 G8 guidelines adopted by MEPC.279(70) or the G8 guidelines adopted by MEPC.174(58). Our Gard Alert highlighting the timeline for the implementation of the Ballast Water Management Convention (BWMC) can be found here. Owners and managers can also refer to FAQs prepared by the IMO and ICS for further clarification on BWMC.

  26 DECEMBER 2020

MLC 2006: 2018 amendments to the Code of the Maritime Labour Convention

Standards A2.1 and A2.2 have been amended and now oblige shipowners to pay wages and other entitlements to seafarers where the seafarer is held captive on or off the ship as a result of acts of piracy or armed robbery against ships. In other words, a seafarer’s employment agreement will continue to have effect while a seafarer is held captive notwithstanding the passing of the expiry date.

  31 DECEMBER 2020

EU legislation on ship recycling (SRR): Inventory of hazardous materials (IHM) 

All non-EU and existing EU vessels calling at a port or anchorage of an EU member state must have an IHM. EU registered vessels must have an inventory certificate (IC) or a ready for recycling certificate, whereas for non-EU vessels initial control is limited to a statement of compliance (SOC). These documents may be checked by inspectors during port state control inspections. Owners and managers should note that the EU legislation has some additional requirements for the Inventory compared with the IMO’s Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships (HKC).

Adoption Of Hydraulic LRRS Testing Methods Can Reduce Injuries

For the better security of crew and for the reduction in the number of accidents that happen during routine testing of Lifeboat Release and Retrieval Systems (LRRS), the shipping industry should consider making use of simulation/hydraulic testing methods widely.

According to Survitec that is a global leader in maritime safety and survival, the test improves the overall of safety of personnel, helps in protecting the critical equipments from damage, brings down the costs and offers a testing method which is in compliance with the international regulations.

“International Association of Classification Societies accepts hydraulic testing as a safer, more reliable method for lifeboat testing. This method should become a more widely adopted and approved test method,” said Paul Watkins, the Regulatory and Compliance Manager at Survitec.

“The safety of personnel during LRRS testing using established methods has on occasion fallen short,” he said.

The traditional LRRS testing methods needs lifeboats, weighted with cast iron, water bags or sandbags, to be lowered to just above the water and then for the manual operation of the release gear. The usage of this testing method involves considerable risks.

A circular was issued by DNV GL in September relating to the accidents that continue to occur when the lifesaving equipments are tested. It requested the owners and operators to learn from the previous accidents.

“Hydraulic testing ensures that minimal personnel need to be onboard the lifeboat during the overload test,” said Watkins. “It is also one hundred per cent safer.”

LRRS Hydraulic test kit calibrated by portable of Survitec is set up with hydraulic rams which are fitted to the release hooks temporarily; the pressure is raised slowly till it becomes equal to 1.1 times the maximum load on the hooks.

If the operational requirements are fulfilled, the tests can be carried out on a quayside or yard location or with a lifeboat that is released on the maintenance pendants that are in the davits.

“Naturally, the entire process is documented in accordance with our strict ISO 9001:2015 management system and mandatory requirements,” said Watkins.

In the Survitec LRRS test a load is applied on the davit and lifeboat release system which is equal to 10% over the needed load. After the load is applied the release system can ve tested to make sure that it is operating successfully under the harsh load conditions.

“We have to ensure that the hooks fore and aft open simultaneously and that the force needed on the release handle is no more than 300 N,” Watkins explained.

The kit included interconnecting pipes, a calibrated hydraulic pump, hydraulic rams and appropriate instrumentation.

“Survitec service teams can meet vessels in any port worldwide to carry out lifeboat examinations and tests in full compliance with SOLAS without the need to launch the lifeboats, tenders, fast rescue craft (FRC) and rescue boats,” said Watkins.

“The hydraulic test method is particularly useful when the vessel is in dry dock or if the weather conditions or other external factors make launching the lifeboat unsafe.

“The wider adoption of hydraulic testing can significantly improve the safety of crew taking part in lifesaving equipment test. The method not only safeguards personnel against injury, it can reduce the costs associated with accidents, including the costs of delaying a vessel that needs to repair damaged lifesaving equipment.”
