4 4 Information note No Introduction This publication was first introduced in March 1990 and has become a useful reference for new IMO regulations. Experience feedback from owners, yards and surveyors indicates that the tables at the end of the note are appreciated as the chronological presentation of new requirements is considered practical and userfriendly. 12th Edition: The publication has been revised to include the amendments to, the ISM, the ISPS and Res. A.744(18) adopted at MSC s 80 th meeting in May 2005, and the amendments to Annex I approved at MEPC 53 in July 2005 have also been included as proposed amendments. Read more about this in Items 12, 13, and 14. As in the 11 th edition all requirements that entered into before have been removed from the printed version of Tables A and B. Our web-based version, however, will still contain the complete tables. Our addresses are: on Internet: and on DNV Exchange: 2. IMO-Vega database All regulations covered by this publication may be found in the IMO-Vega database, a database developed and maintained by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) in close cooperation with IMO. In addition to the regulations of the conventions and codes the database contains the corresponding interpretations, guidelines and resolutions from IMO's Assembly, Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) and Marine Environmental Protection Committee (MEPC). The 10th version of the IMO Vega database is released by the beginning of IMO-Vega v.10 is in Windows format and is more user friendly for the complex task of navigation among IMO documents developed through years. Hopefully, the user will find what he or she looks for using for instance the Table of Contents searching by type of documents, or using free text search with or without search operators. The 10th version of IMO-Vega is still issued on a single disk. The IMO-Vega database requires that the computer operates on Windows -98 SE or newer and Microsoft.NET framework. IMO-Vega contains historical data, including superseded regulations. The database is updated annually. IMO-Vega is sold by IMO's Publications Section in London. Questions and comments: General questions and comments may be directed to the editors Mr. Håkon J. Helge or Ms. Liv Tesli Haugen at MTPNO863, or Mr. Knut Vaagnes at MTPNO860 and questions regarding MARPOL and IBC and IGC s are to be directed to section MTPNO880.

On 5 th of October 2001, a diplomatic conference at IMO adopted the INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION ON THE CONTROL OF HARMFUL ANTI-FOULING SYSTEMS ON SHIPS by consensus. The Convention also applies to fixed and floating platforms as well as FSU s and FPSO s. The Convention enters into 12 months after minimum 25 countries representing at least 25% of the world gross tonnage have ratified the Convention. The Convention cannot be end until it enters into. However, individual flag states may decide to implement it in their national legislation and make it effective prior to the of the Convention. The requirement will then have to be complied with by vessels of that flag state. When the Convention enters into, most countries being bound by it will apply it retroactively. It is therefore recommended that all owners comply with the Convention a.s.a.p. and not later than 1 January 2003, even if it has not entered into at that date.
5 Information note No. 9 5 The schedule for eliminating the use of TBT paints is: After 1 January 2003, ships shall not apply or re-apply anti fouling systems containing organotin compounds acting as biocides, e.g. TBT. After 1 January 2008, organotin compounds acting as biocides, e.g. TBT, shall not be present on the hull of a ship or an offshore units. The only exceptions are fixed and floating offshore units, FSU s and FPSO s which have not been in dry-dock after 1 January The no presence requirement can be fulfilled either by removing the old TBT-paint or by applying a sealer coating prior to applying the TBT-free anti-fouling system. Ships of 400 gross tonnage and above engaged in international voyages shall after 1 January 2003, or when the convention enters into, carry an International Anti-Fouling System Certificate (IAFS-Certificate) to document state of compliance with the convention. Similarly, ships of 24 meters or more in length but less than 400 gross tonnage engaged in international voyages shall carry a Declaration signed by the owner or owner s authorised agent. As it may take some time before the flag states are prepared to issue IAFS-Certificates, in order to document compliance with the Convention prior to its, Classification Societies are prepared to issue an equivalent document in the form of a Statement of Compliance (SOC). Owners are recommended to secure such document upon the first docking where a non- TBT anti-fouling system is being applied. Survey for and issuance of a SOC shall be in accordance with Res. MEPC.102(48), Guidelines for Survey and Certification of Anti-Fouling Systems of Ships. This implies that it is important that the owner requests the Classification Society for the survey and issuance of a SOC before the day docking starts. The dates of the requirements of the above new convention have been included in Tables A and B. 4. Annex IV of MARPOL 73/78. Regulations for the Prevention of Pollution by Sewage from Ships Annex IV of MARPOL 73/78, or the Sewage Regulations, entered into on the 27 September 2003 and applies to ships engaged on international voyages. The Annex sets out in detail how sewage should be treated or held aboard ships and the circumstances in which discharge into the sea may be allowed. The revised text of Annex IV in Resolution MEPC.88(44) will be implemented immediately after of the existing Annex IV to avoid the creation of a dual treaty regime Conference and the ISPS. to The Conference in 2002 adopted a series of to the 1974 Convention, aimed at enhancing maritime security on board ships and at ship/port interface areas. Among other things, these amendments create a new chapter dealing specifically with maritime security, which in turn contains the mandatory requirement for ships to comply with the International Ship and Port Facilities Security (ISPS ). Since equipping ships with Automatic Information Systems (AIS) is an important part of enhancing maritime security, amendments have also been made in Ch. V requiring cargo ships to provide AIS earlier than required by the The existing Chapter XI (Special measures to enhance maritime safety) has been re-numbered as Chapter XI-1. Regulation XI-1/3 is modified to require ships' identification numbers to be permanently marked in a visible place on the ship's hull or superstructure. Passenger ships may carry the marking on a horizontal surface visible from the air. Ships should also be marked with their ID numbers internally. A new regulation XI-1/5 requires ships to be issued with a Continuous Synopsis Record (CSR) which is intended to provide an on-board record of the history of the ship. The CSR shall be issued by the Administration and shall contain information such as the name of the ship and of the State whose flag the ship is entitled to fly, the date on which the ship was registered with that State, the ship's identification number, the port at which the ship is registered and the name of the registered owner(s) and their registered address. Any changes shall be recorded in the CSR so as to provide updated and current information together with the history of the changes. New Chapter XI-2 (Special measures to enhance maritime security). This chapter applies to passenger ships and to cargo ships of 500 gross tonnage and upwards, including high speed craft, mobile offshore drilling units and port facilities serving such ships engaged on international voyages. Reg. XI-2/3 requires Contracting Governments to set security levels for ships and port facilities and to ensure the provision of security level information to ships entitled to fly their flag. Reg. XI-2/4 enshrines the ISPS. Part A of this will become mandatory and part B contains guidance on how to best comply with the mandatory requirements. Prior to entering a port, or whilst in a port, within the
6 6 Information note No. 9 territory of a Contracting Government, a ship shall comply with the requirements for the security level set by that Contracting Government, if that security level is higher than the security level set by the Administration for that ship. Reg. XI-2/5 refers to the responsibilities of Companies to ensure that the master has available on board information related to charterers, employment of the ship and crewing agencies. Reg. XI-2/6 requires all ships to be provided with a ship security alert system, according to a strict timetable that will see most vessels fitted by 2004 and the remainder by When activated the ship security alert system shall initiate and transmit a ship-to-shore security alert to a competent authority designated by the Administration, identifying the ship, its location and indicating that the security of the ship is under threat or it has been compromised. The system will not raise any alarm on board the ship. The ship security alert system shall be capable of being activated from the navigation bridge and in at least one other location. Reg. XI-2/7 further evolves the obligations of the Contracting governments to set security levels, provide contact points for security concerns and to advice ships of security issues. Reg. XI-2/8 confirms the role of the Master in exercising his professional judgement over decisions necessary to maintain the security of the ship. It says he shall not be constrained by the Company, the charterer or any other person in this respect. Any conflicts between safety and security issues shall give priority to safety. Reg. XI-2/9 gives details on the control measures that can be imposed on a ship by port states and the information the ship is obliged to provide. Reg. XI-2/10 covers requirements for port facilities, providing among other things for Contracting Governments to ensure that port facility security assessments are carried out and that port facility security plans are developed, implemented and reviewed in accordance with the ISPS. Other regulations in this chapter cover the provision of information to be provided to and by IMO, alternative security agreements between Contracting Governments and equivalent security arrangements. The above amendments have been included in Tables A and B with dates. The International Ship and Port Security (ISPS). The new, comprehensive security regime for international shipping entered into in July In essence, the takes the approach that ensuring the security of ships and port facilities is basically a risk management activity and that to determine what security measures are appropriate, an assessment of the risk must be made in each particular case. The purpose of the is to provide a standardized, consistent framework for evaluating risk, enabling governments to offset changes in threat with changes in vulnerability for ships and port facilities. The risk management concept is embodied in the through a number of minimum functional security requirements for ships and port facilities. For ships, these requirements will include: - ship security plans - ship security officers - company security officers - certain on-board equipment In order to communicate the threat at a port facility or for a ship, the Contracting Government will set the appropriate security level. Security levels 1, 2, and 3 correspond to normal, medium, and high threat situations respectively. The security level creates a link between the ship and the port facility, since it triggers the implementation of appropriate security measures for the ship and for the port facility. Ships will have to carry an International Ship Security Certificate (ISSC) indicating that they comply with the requirements of Ch. XI-2 and Part A of the ISPS. When a ship is at port or is proceeding to a port of a Contracting Government, the Contracting Government has the right, under the provisions of Reg. XI-2/9, to exercise various control and compliance measures with respect to that ship. The ship is subject to Port State Control inspections, but such inspections will not normally extend to examination of the Ship Security Plan itself except in specific circumstances. The Certificate has a validity of 5 years and is subject to an intermediate verification between the 2 nd and 3 rd anniversary. DNV will, when authorised as a Recognised Security Organisation, issue the ISSC on behalf of the Flag State Authorities Load Lines Protocol. The IMO MSC 76 meeting ( 2002) approved amendments to Annex B to the 1988 LL Protocol. These amendments were adopted by MSC 77 in June The amendments entered into on 1 January 2005 for flag states that have ratified the 1988 LL Protocol. Some specific items of particular interest are outlined below.
7 Information note No. 9 7 Bow height and reserve buoyancy - Reg. 39. The formula for minimum bow height is based on deck wetness considerations. This implies that any ship with minimum bow height would be subject to shipping water at the bow at a common and acceptable long-term probability level. Its application will mean that the minimum required bow height of smaller ships (length less than 100m) will increase to some extent and for large ships with type B freeboard the minimum bow height will be at least the same or greater than those calculated under the existing formula. An analysis of existing ships shows that the deficiency of reserve buoyancy in the forward part is apparent for large type B ships with reduced freeboard and zero sheer. This applies in particular to cape size bulk carriers, which have around 25% less reserve buoyancy in the space extending 0.15 L aft of FP than the equivalent ship with standard bow sheer. The MSC 76 approved a new formula and related provisions on reserve buoyancy for type B ships, except tankers which sometimes are assigned a type B freeboard. Reserve buoyancy at the bow will also influence the pitching motions in extreme seas in a favourable manner and provide additional buoyancy when the bow is submerged, hence improving the seaworthiness of the ship, especially in head seas. Hatch cover loads - Reg. 16. After extensive discussions the MSC 76 approved maximum sea load levels for the forward hatches based on a proposal by UK. The hatch cover loads will increase considerably compared to the requirement in the existing LL Convention. It was also agreed to add a new provision related to hatch cover horizontal loading to Annex I of MARPOL 73/78. At the 50 th session ( 2003) of IMO s Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) adopted an amended Regulation 13G on phase out of single hull tankers and a new regulation 13H on carriage of heavy grade oil. The amended regulation and the new regulation will enter into on 5 April The Condition Assessment Scheme was also amended to be aligned with changes in regulation 13G and regulation 13H. 8. New Convention on Ballast Water Management At the International Conference on Ballast Water Management for Ships, held in February 2004, the new International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships Ballast Water and Sediments was completed and adopted. It is now available for ratification and will enter into 12 months after signing by 30 States, representing 35 per cent of world merchant shipping tonnage. With this mechanism it is difficult to foresee exactly when the new Convention will enter into. However, requirements for acceptable ballast water management methods have been given more exact dates. The main impact of these requirements is that ballast water exchange will be phased out as an acceptable method for complying with the Convention during a period of time from 2009 to 2016, depending on ballast water capacity and date of delivery of the vessel. After this, ballast water treatment will be the only remaining option for complying with the Convention. 9. Entry into Force of Annex VI of MARPOL 73/78, i.e. the 1997 Annex VI Protocol. Annex VI of MARPOL 73/78, Regulations for the Prevention of Air Pollution from Ships, requires all ships of 400 gross ton or above, and platforms and drilling rigs engaged in voyages, to obtain an International Air Pollution Prevention (IAPP) certificate. The Annex entered into on the 19 th of May 2005 and have an immediate effect on ships constructed (keel laid) on or after this date. Ships constructed (keel laid) before 19 th of May 2005 are required to comply with Annex VI on the first scheduled dry-docking after this date, but in no case later than 19 th of May Annex VI has requirements to the following: Ozone depleting substances from refrigerating plants and fire fighting equipment Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) from diesel engines and EIAPP certification Sulphur Oxides (SOx) in fuel Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from cargo tanks of oil tankers Shipboard Incineration Fuel oil quality The following retroactive requirements should also be noted: - Each diesel engine with a power output of more than 130 kw which is installed on a ship keel laid on or after 1 January 2000 shall comply with requirements in regulation 13 for emission of nitorgen oxides, (NOx), and have an Eingine International Air Pollution Prevention (EIAPP) Certificate. This also applies to engines of more than 130 kw on any ship that undergoes a major conversion on or after 1 January 2000.
8 8 Information note No. 9 However, regulation 13 is not applicable for emergency diesel engines, engines installed in lifeboats and any device or equipment intended to be used solely in case of emergency. - Incinerators installed on or after 1 January 2000 shall comply with the requirements in regulation Revised Annex I of MARPOL 73/78, i.e Annex I. At its 52 nd session (October 2004) MEPC adopted a revised Annex I. The revised Annex I will enter into on 1 January The layout of the Annex has been totally changed, and outdated text has also been excluded. In addition to this main changes of substance are: Double bottom required in cargo pump room for oil tankers of 5000 tonnes deadweight and above with keel laid on or after 1 January Accidental oil outflow performance calculations for oil tankers delivered on or after 1 January Access to computerised, shore-based damage stability and residual strength calculation programs required for all oil tankers of 5000 tonnes deadweight and above from 1 January This means some kind of emergency response system or service (ERS) is required. This may be the Owners own system, or one may be registered with an ERS offered e.g. by Det Norske Veritas. 11. Revised Annex II and International Bulk Chemical (IBC), i.e Annex II and 2004 IBC. At its 52 nd session (October 2004) MEPC adopted the revised Annex II to MARPOL as well as the revised IBC. The revised IBC was also adopted by MSC at ists 79 th session ( 2004). Both revisions will enter into on 1 January This will, for all practical purposes, affect the carriage of all liquid bulk cargoes other than mineral oils. All ships carrying liquid bulk cargoes other than oils will be required to have a new certificate, (NLS Certificate or Chem. Certificate of Fitness), from 1 January The only exception from this is ships restricted to carriage of one or more of the presently 7 "Other Substances" (OS) listed in Chapter 18 of the revised IBC. Sophisticated / multipurpose chemical tankers will generally maintain their range of acceptable products. Simpler chemical tankers, tankers for "easy chemicals"/oil products, and tankers presently holding only a NLS Certificate will, without upgrading of the ships, loose a large part of their present range of acceptable products. Moreover, from 1 January 2007 a liquid product may not be carried in bulk unless it has been categorised and evaluated. Vegetable oils are, in general, under the revised Annex II and IBC required to be carried by chemical tankers / in cargo tanks meeting Ship Type 2 requirements as Pollution Category Y substances with a maximum cargo quantity of 3000 m³ in any one cargo tank. An exemption clause in revised Annex II regulation does, however, give the Administrations a possibility to accept carriage in chemical tankers Ship Type 3, without restrictions on the quantity in each tank, provided the tanks have double hull and the stripping requirements as well as the other operational requirements of Annex II for a Category Y product are complied with. It should further be noted that as a consequence of the Annex II revision the BCH, which is applicable to ships with keel laid before 1 July 1986, also needs to be revised, and the revision will have to have effect from 1 January This work still remains within IMO A complete revision of the subdivision and stability provisions of Ch. II-1 was adopted with set for 1 January The revision of chapter II-1 is intended to harmonize the provisions on subdivision and damage stability for passenger and cargo ships. The provisions of the present Parts A, B and B-1 have been revised as Parts A B, B-1, B-2, B-3, and B-4 and will be applicable to new ships built after the expected date of 1 January 2009.
9 Information note No. 9 9 The amendments, which have been intensively developed over the past decade, are based on the probabilistic method of determining damage stability, which is itself based on the detailed study of data collected by IMO relating to collisions. Because it is based on statistical evidence concerning what actually happens when ships collide, the probabilistic concept is believed to be far more realistic than the previous deterministic method used for passenger ships. The revision has taken into account the results of the HARDER (Harmonisation of Rules and Design Rational) research project: a project undertaken by a consortium of European industrial, research and academic institutions to study the probabilistic approach for assessing a ship's damage stability and to develop new criteria and indexes for subdivision based on probability of survival, taking into account effects from waves, heeling moments, cargo shift, transient effects and equalization arrangements. For passenger ships the marking of subdivision loadlines has been changed from C.1, C.2, etc. to P1, P2, etc. - for which the building contract was placed on or after 1 August 2007;or - in the absence of a building contract, the keels of which are laid or which are at a similar stage of construction on or after 1 February 2008; or - the delivery of which is on or after 1 August The regulation will also apply to major conversions carried out with milestone dates for the conversion similar to the above dates. The regulation will require that oil fuel tanks greater than 30 m3 are to be protected by a double hull arrangement. Alternalively to a double hull arrangement with boundary distances as given in regulations 13A.6, 7. 8 is a double hull arrangement complying with the accidental oil fuel outflow performance as set out in regulation 13A.11. In the 2005 there are also a few other changes to chapter II-1 with on to Res. A.744(18) - Enhanced Survey Programme for bulk carriers and oil tankers. The amendments to the Guidelines on the enhanced programme of inspections during surveys of bulk carriers and oil tankers (Resolution 744(18)), as amended by Resolution MSC.197(80), incorporate some elements of the Condition Assessment Scheme (CAS) under the revised regulation I/13G as well as a complete reorganization of the guidelines to include a new section on survey guidelines for the inspection of double hull tankers. 14. Proposed to the Revised MARPOL Annex I (Addition of new regulation 13A on oil fuel tank protection) At the 53 rd session (July 2005) MEPC approved the draft new regulation 13A of the revised MARPOL Annex I on Oil fuel tank protection. The draft regulation will be circulated with the view to adopt the regulation at MEPC54 in March 2006 and expected is July The regulation will be applicable to all ships with an aggreagate oil fuel capacity of 600 m3 and above:
