Scope and Application

These Guidance Notes address maintenance and repair procedures for PSPC coatings of seawater ballast tanks and crude oil cargo tanks. Corrosion prevention systems other than coatings are not covered by these Guidance Notes.

Maintenance and repair of the protective coating system should be included in the vessel's overall maintenance and repair scheme and should be recorded in the Coating Technical File (CTF) as per IMO resolutions MSC.215(82) and MSC.288(87). The effectiveness of the protective coating system, which may include the use of anodes, should be monitored by the Administration or an organization recognized by the Administration during the life of a vessel.
