    This document provides recommendations for evaluating protective coatings for cargo oil tanks on crude oil tankers that have been in the field for 5 years. It outlines the documentation needed from coating manufacturers to verify 5 years of field exposure. It also describes requirements for selecting a vessel to inspect, including cargo tank conditions and exposure to varied cargoes and temperatures. The document establishes definitions for good coating condition and provides examples of how to report inspection results.

    (cont)
    (Feb
    2011) 5 years field exposure test in accordance with MSC.288 (87)
    (Rev.1
    Feb 1. Introduction
    2013)
    This recommendation provides an interim solution on the method of the 5 year field
    procedure given in table 1.1.3 of MSC.288 (87).

    2. 5 years field exposure

    2.1 Coating manufacturer’s records, should include the information indicated in 2.2.1 and
    should be examined to confirm coating system has 5 years field exposure, and the current
    product is the same as that being assessed.

    2.2.1 Manufacturer’s Records

    • Original application records


    • Original coating specification
    • Original technical data sheet
    • Current formulation’s unique identification (Code or number)
    • If the mixing ratio of base and curing agent has changed, a statement from the coating
    manufacturer confirming that the composition of the mixed product is the same as the
    original composition. This should be accompanied by an explanation of the
    modifications made.
    • Current technical data sheet for the current production site
    • Specific Gravity (SG) and Infra Red (IR) identification of original product
    • SG and IR identification of the current product
    • If original SG and IR cannot be provided then a statement from the coating
    manufacturer confirming the readings for the current product are the same as those of
    the original

    2.2 Either class survey records should be reviewed, or a joint (coating manufacturer and
    RO) survey of cargo tanks of a selected vessel should be carried out, to verify compliance
    with the requirements of 2.1 and 2.6. The reporting of the coating condition in both cases
    should be in accordance with the principles given in section 4 of MSC.1/Circ. 1330.

    2.3 The selected vessel should have cargo tanks in regular use, of which:

    • At least one tank is exposed to minimum temperature of 60 degree C plus or minus


    3 degree
    • For field exposure the ship should be trading in varied trade routes and carrying
    substantial varieties of crude oils including highest temperature and lowest pH limits to
    provide a realistic sample: for example, three ships in three different trade
    areas with different varieties of crude cargoes

    2.4 In the case that the selected vessel does not meet the requirements in 2.3 then the
    limitations on lowest pH and highest temperature of crude oils carried should be clearly stated
    on the type approval certificate.

    2.5 In all cases of approval by field exposure for 5 years, the shop primer should be
    removed prior to application of the approved epoxy based system coating, unless it can be

    No.116

    No. confirmed that the shop primer applied during construction, is identical in formulation to that
    applied in the selected vessel used as a basis of the approval.
    116
    (cont) 2.6 All cargo tanks should be in “GOOD” condition excluding mechanical damages, without
    touch up or repair in the prior 5 years.

    2.6.1 “Good” is defined as: Condition with spot rusting on less than 3% of the area under
    consideration without visible failure of the coating. Rusting at edges or welds, must be on less
    than 20% of edges or welds in the area under consideration.” “Area under consideration” is
    the area defined as per PSPC-COT 4.4 and 4.5. In evaluating the figures given in the
    definition, an under deck area and an inner bottom area are to be treated separately.

    2.6.2 Examples of how to report coating conditions with respect to areas under consideration
    should be as those given in the principles in section 4 of MSC.1/Circ. 1330.

    2.7 If the applied NDFT is greater than required by the PSPC, the applied NDFT should be
    the minimum to be applied during construction. This will be reported prominently on the Type
    Approval Certificate.

    2.8 If the results of the inspection are satisfactory, a Type Approval Certificate should be
    issued to include both the epoxy based system and the shop primer. The Type Approval
    Certificate should allow the use of the epoxy based system either with the named shop primer
    or on bare prepared steel. The Type Approval Certificate should reference the inspection
    report which should also form part of the Coating Technical File.

    2.9 The Type Approval Certificate should be considered invalid if the formulation of either
    the epoxy based system or the shop primer is changed. It is the responsibility of the coating
    manufacturer to inform the RO that provided the Type Approval of any changes to the
    formulation.
