MOORING
231 4.1.1 COMPANY SMM Procedures for safe mooring should be contained in a Company manual OCIMF Mooring
The ship is moored in accordance with industry standards
- As per the MEG, when synthetic tails are fitted to wires, the synthetic
tails are at least 25% stronger than the wire, or when nylon/polyamide
are used, at least 37% stronger.[ MEG 6.5.1]
232 4.1.2 Capt DECK - Synthetic tails should be at least 11m in length, and may be longer as OCIMF Mooring
required based on berth location. [ MEG 6.5.2]
- The recommended method of turning-up a rope on bitts is to take one
or two full turns around the leading post before ‘figure-of-eighting’. The
reason for this is to reduce the tendency to pull the two posts together.

electric arc equipment to ensure
that:
11 6.1.15 ENGINEERS ENGINE ROOM - Electrical supply connections are made in a gas free space. TSG (C) 2.12.4
- Existing supply wiring is adequate to carry the electrical current demand without overloading,
causing heating.
- Insulation of flexible electric cables is in good condition.
- The cable route to the work site is the safest possible, only passing over gas free or inerted spaces.
- The welding return lead should be connected as near aspracticable to the welding arc; metal rails,
pipes and frames should not
be used as part of the welding circuit unless they are a part of the work piece itself.
