INSB`s dedication to Quality Shipping as well as its commitment and proactive steps towards continuous Port State Control (PSC) improvement, signifies a major non-stop objective for the society.
Following our launched “Port State Control Quality Policy” during 2004, several components were adopted to include:
- Refreshment of the society’s corporate PSC procedures
- Upgraded contacts with the corresponding MOUs Secretariats
- Concrete actions to vessels having shown an increased detention ratio
- Improved monitoring process for each detention and especially to those attributed by PSC as “class responsibility”.
- Thorough review of vessels previous PSC performance history (among others), prior deciding for vessel’s entry with INSB class society.
- PSC Concentrated Inspection Campaigns (CIC) as applied by several MOU Authorities are also monitored.
- Reformation of INSB`s Detention database
As a result of the above, significant improvement over INSB`s PSC statistics and performance has been witnessed for the past 3 years.
In addition and in order to assist ship owners / operators maintain proper PSC compliancy, the INSB has established a guidance PSC checklist which is illustrated in our relevant web page, under the title “Guides”.
