What are MSN, MIN, MGN?
All are 'm' notices issued by the MCA. Merchant Shipping notices (msn) are mandatory guide
lines that must be complied with under British Legislation. Marine Information Notices (min) are
issued to supply temporary or short term information. Marine Guidance Notices (mgn) are
recommendations, guidelines set down my the MCA but are strictly guidlines, they are not
compulsary.
What is IMO?
IMO stands for International Maratime Organisation. The organisation is part of the United
Nations and is made up of 162 state members. Together the members create regimes and
conventions regarding the saftey of shipping and the environment. IMO do not enforce these
conventions, it is the responsibility of the individual state members to enforce these conventions
on the shipping under their flag state.
Meaning of ISM?
International safety Management.
How does your ship comply with ISM?
The ISM code is the code regarding all safe working onboard. My ship complied with ISM by
use of its Safety Management System (SMS). This employs the use of things like safety
checklists and permits to work. The ships SMS is constantly being updated and improved to
constantly inprove the vessels level of onboard safety.
What is the purpose of ISM?
The purpose of ISM is to set a standard of safe working and prevention to avoid accidents
involving of harming your person, the ship, its crew, or the environment.
You take on new bunkers with a higher specific gravity than your previous fuel. What must you
do and why?
The fuel oil purifier gravity disc must be changed to a smaller one which suits the specific
gravity of the new fuel, in order to correctly position the oil/water interface and achieve
maximum seperation.
You are taking over the watch, whilst on your walk round you notice that there is lube oil
coming from the water side of the lube oil purifier. What could be the reason for this?
Carryover of oil into the waterside can be caused by too high a throughput or too high a back
pressure. It could also be due to an incorrectly sized gravity disc. This however is unlikely in a
lube oil purifier as the same type and S.G. of oil is used all the time and the gravity disc very
rarely would be changed.
What does MARPOL tell you?
Marpol is the convention of MarinePollution. This convention is a part of the IMO. MARPOL
set all the regulations regarding pollution in the marine industry. It is made up of 6 annexes:
Annex 1 - Pollution from oil
Annex 2 - Pollution from noxious liquid substances
Annex 3 - Pollution from harmful substances in package form
Annex 4 - Sewage
Annex 5 - Garbage
Annex 6 - Air pollution ( this annex is not yet ratified and is not compulsary as yet10/09/2003 )
Annexes 1 to 5 must be enforced by all flag states signed to the IMO.
How many oil record books does a tanker require?
It requires Two. One for the engine room oil movements and one for cargo oil movements.
You find intermediate bearing temperatures rising, what could be the cause and what
would your actions be?
Low oil level in the bearing causing insufficient lubrication or a lack or cooling medium would
result in the temperature rising. If more than one shaft bearing was rising it would be likely that
there is insufficient cooling of the oil.
I would request from the bridge permission to reduce the load on the engine and reduce the ships
speed. The chief engineer should also be called at this point. If the rise was rapid it may be
necessary to stop the engine. If this is done the turning gear must be engaged and the engine
turned to prevent seizure. The shaft bearings should be visually inspected. If the oil level is low it
should be replenished. If the problem is due to lack of cooling, valves should be checked (may
have vibrated shut) or the pipework may be blocked.
What is the purpose of the thrust block?
The thrust block transmits the thrust from the propeller to the ship’s hull.
What would happen if the thrust block wasn’t there?
The propeller thrust would drive the shaft and engine through the ship.
What is the material of the main bearing?
White metal composite on a steel backing.
What is the composition of white metal?
Tin Lead Antimony.
What types of certificates do you carry onboard?
Passenger certificate (if passenger vessel)
Safe manning certificate
Load line certificate
Lifeboat/raft certificates
Firefighting equipment certificates
copy of D.O.C.

What are IMO conventions?
(International Maritime Organisation) is the regulation body of international standards that
governs and manages the shipping industry.
Conventions are put in place by the IMO to specialise in certain fields of the governing body,
such conventions are:
- MARPOL 73/78 (International Convention For The Prevention Of Pollution By Ships).
- SOLAS (The International Convention For The Safety Of Life At Sea).
- STCW ’95 (The International Convention For The Standards Of Training Certification and
Watchkeeping).

What are M-Notices?
M-Notices stands for marine notice, there are 3 different types of M-notice, these are:
Merchant Shipping Notice (MSN) – White in colour.
- These convey information that merchant vessels must understand and comply with.
Marine Guidance Note (MGN) – Blue in colour.
- These involve information that is to be used as a guideline to improve safety and life at sea and
keep pollution to a minimum.
Marine Information Note (MIN) – Green in colour.
- These contain information for use of more limited audiences such as training establishments
and equipment manufacturers; this information may only be valid for a limited period of time.
MGN 69
MGN 69 – Training and certification guidance – part II conduct of MCA oral examinations
This is the booklet that the examiner will refer to throughout an exam. It covers the general
requirements for certification, including:
- Valid medical.
- Minimum sea time completion.
- Completion of approved training.
EOOW oral exam requirements covering:
- Marine engineering.
- Electrical electronic and control engineering.
- Maintenance and repair.
- Control the operation of the ship and care for persons on board.
Certificates carried on UK registered ships
All merchant vessels are required to carry the following certification:
- Certificate of compliance (ISMC)
- Safety management certificate
- International oil pollution prevention certificate
- International sewage pollution certificate
- International load line certificate/ load line exemption certificate.
Lifeboat launching procedure
Before launching the life boat it essential that all crew members have mustered and have carried
out their duties (which should be known to them EPIRB and SART). The procedure for
launching the lifeboat is as follows:
- Remove the securing pins.
- Disconnect the charging cable.
- Close the drain plugs.
- Ensure the crew boards safely, dawned in the proper PPE and secured.
- Release the gripes.
- Secure the hatches.
- Check it is clear bellow.
- Operate brake release.
- When landed in the water release the falls.
- Start the engine.
- Release the painter and steer away.
What are the EPIRB and SART?
The Emergency Position Indication Radio Beacon (EPIRB) can be found in a free-floating
position on the ship, such as the bridge wing. This allows the EPIRB to float to the surface
without obstruction when submerged. When in water the EPIRB will automatically activate
sending a distress beacon at 121.5MHz and 406MHz.
The Search And Rescue Transponder (SART) must be manually turned on and will only activate
within an 8 nautical mile radius of and x-band radar signal.
What is COSWP?
The Code Of Safe Working Practices (COSWP) provides very useful information on the best
working practices to promote safety of life, equipment and environment. COSWP covers many
areas in safety, including:
- COSHH
- Use of safety signs
- Permits to work
- PPE
- Enclosed Space Entry
- Hot work
- Fire precautions
- General Maintenance
- Emergency procedures
- Risk assessment.
How do you carry out an enclosed space entry?
- Carry out a risk assessment.
- Receive a permit to work.
- 24 hours before entry, allow the space to ventilate, ensure the space is marked off clearly and
the crew are aware of work being carried out.
- Measure the oxygen content, a minimum of 20% oxygen content should be present before
entry.
- Measure combustible gas content with an explosimeter, and toxic gas content if necessary.
Before entry ensure the following is available at the entrance:
- Rescue and resuscitation equipment.
- Testing equipment for regular checks
- Responsible person in attendance.
- Easily available illumination and access.
- Communication agreements with person in attendance.
Ensure all required PPE is worn:
- Overalls.
- Hard hat
- Gloves.
- Steel cap boots
- BA set if necessary.
What is a risk assessment?
A risk assessment is an examination of what could cause harm when a task is being carried out,
so that decisions can be made as to whether enough precautions have been taken or whether
more should be taken to prevent harm.
The risk assessment first establishes the hazards present at a job and the risks that arise from a
hazard. It will also contain information on precautions already carried out to reduce the risks
such as permits to work, PPE, warning signs.
The risk assessment will address any risks to health and safety involved in a job. Advice is given
on further precautions to take in relation to the use of PPE or the location of further information
pertaining to safety procedures.

Mist in refrigeration room, what are your actions?
Do not know the answer however it can be assumed, as it is mist, there is a leak somewhere
before or after the compressor. My answer would be to shut down the system, open air vents to
the refrigeration room, turn on fans if available. Once the mist clears inspect the system for
leaks, pressure test on evaporator tubes.
Procedure of isolating a motor
Do not know the proper procedure, it is known that the examiner is looking for a risk assessment
to be carried out, and a permit to work and isolation certificate authorised. My answer would be
to carry out a risk assessment, get permit to work and isolation certificate authorised. Ensure all
PPE is worn and the crew know of the maintenance being carried out; clearly mark off at the
main switchboard and local control panel not to switch on. Shut down the system and earth the
motor to drain any residual voltage. Carry on with dismantling the motor.
Starting Generator
- Check lube oil levels.

- Start separator.
- After 10min of flushing through with sea water, set the separator to draw from bilge holding
tank.
Steering Gear Checks
The steering gear should be tested 12 hours before the ship sails. Checks to be carried out are:
1. Check steering gear flat for leaks.
2. Call bridge to test the communication system.
3. Start one pump and one control system.
4. Swing rudder through its movement; ensure it is free to turn.
5. Check rudder indicator follows the rudder.
6. Stop control system; check alarm systems and auto start if stand by system is working.
7. Repeat steps 4 & 5.
8. Stop pump; check alarms and auto start to ensure auto start of stand by pump works. Stand by
pump should cut in.
9. Repeat steps 4 – 7.
The rudder must move though it’s full movement using every pump, every control system, and
every steering position.
Vessels on short voyages must carry out these checks every week.
Every three months steering the vessel from the steering flat with the emergency steering should
be carried out.
35º - 35º and 35º - 30º in 28 seconds should be carried out every 3 months.
In emergency conditions the steering gear should be able to manoeuvre 15º - 15º in 60 seconds at
half service speed (min 7knts)
Scavenge Space Fire:
A scavenge space fire may be caused by unburned fuel/ carbon blown from the cylinder to the
scavenge space. Fuel may be unburned due to:
- Faulty injection. (Afterburning.)
- Faulty fuel pump timing.
- Incorrect fuel condition.
- Lack of sufficient scavenge air.
- Partially chocked exhaust.
- Low compression- (Faulty/ worn piston ring).
A scavenge fire may be indicated by:
- High exhaust temperature in the effected unit.
- Loss of power.
- High local temperature in scavenge trunk.
- Irregular running.
- Smoke in exhaust.
- Surging turbo charger.
- Sparks/ flames from scavenge drains.
In case of a scavenge fire the following procedure must be carried out:
- Inform bridge/ chief engineer (request main engine slow down)
- Activate general engineers alarm.
- Slow down main engine (if not done automatically).
- Shut off fuel to the effected unit.
- Increase lubrication of cylinder.
- Close scavenge drains.
- Monitor the situation, if the fire persists shut down main engine.
- Engage turning gear, continually turn and lubricate engine.
- Smother turbo charger inlet filters.
- If fire continues activate scavenge space fixed fire fighting installation, deploy fire team for
boundary cooling.
