April 09, 2020 Posted by AK No comments
The history of the Ships like Bulk career and tankers is filled with accidents and disasters, both of small scale and gruesome types. Many of these accidents were because of faulty machinery or lack of safe handling practice.
IMO adopted a resolution A 744 (18) in 1994 SOLAS conference with guidelines on the Enhanced survey programme for inspection and surveys of bulk carriers and tankers.

What is Enhanced Survey Programme?

Enhanced survey programme is a guideline for shipping companies and owners to prepare their ship for special surveys to maintain the safety of the ship while at sea or at port. A survey programme is to be prepared by the owner and is to be submitted to the recognized authorities like classification societies, 6 months prior to the survey.

A new chapter XI is added for special measures to enhance maritime safety under this resolution. According to these guidelines, it has 2 Annexes:
· Annex A: Guidelines on enhance survey programme of inspection during survey of bulk carrier.
· Annex B: Guidelines on enhance survey programme of inspection during survey
of oil tankers.
