Erika
Prestige
Last RCH March 2000 steel renewals carried out MO(106) issued for all topwing tanks prior to RCH Annual survey of all ballast tanks in 2001, no comments given by attending surveyor Annual survey of all ballast tanks in 2002, no comments given by attending surveyor
Example-4 Tanker
December 2002 Tanker 140K, built in 1977 Surveyor (Fujairah) attends the ship for CMS. While walking on main deck, a transverse crack (200 mm) was found in deck plating. Surveyor attends the ship for repair survey. A small insert had been fitted (DNV not notified in advance). The cropped plate had wastage of 40 50%. Repair carried out was not considered sufficient and UTM was required. Extensive corrosion found both in cargo and ballast tanks, up to 40% average corrosion and up to 65% in single measurements. Surveyor requests 100% measurement of the whole deck area and internal closeup examination. Owner carried out further UTM (without DNV attendance). Based on excessive corrosion found, owner decides to sell the ship for scrap. The vessel passed renewal survey in April 2001. UTM report from the renewal survey shows corrosion well within limits except for some local areas being cropped and renewed.

Result of thickness measurements
Taverage = 15.6 minimum = 9.6 Taverage = 13.7 minimum = 6.6 Plate renewed by owner due to crack in deck Taverage = 15.3 minimum = 7.2

Introduction Corrosion margin,
Hull Girder Strength and Buckling Buckling check of longitudinal members in deck and bottom
Corrosion margin of individual plates and stiffeners is based on % value provided sufficient buckling strength
Max. reduction of Hull Girder Section Modulus = 10%

Introduction Corrosion margin procedure
Substantial Corrosion
Definition:
t : as built thickness tr : class allowable diminution sarea : substantial corrosion area = 0.25 x tr
tr sarea
Substantial Corrosion
Tankers
Oil majors are generally not accepting substantial corrosion
toil : oil major allowable diminution = 0.75tr
tr sarea
Substantial Corrosion
How to handle:
All Substantial Corrosion readings to be dealt with. Also single measurements

Implementation
Oil Tankers (L > 130 m ) Applicable for 3rd and subsequent renewal survey commenced on or after 1 of July 2002. Not applicable for surveys commenced prior to and completed after 1 July 2002.
Reporting
Survey Report(40.9a) and Executive Hull Summary(40.66a)
Areas to be included:
- Deck and bottom plating and stiffeners as indicated in red
- Not necessary to include girders, rounded gunwales and bilge area
Measured area: = 56x200x8+2000x9x4x2 = 89600+144000 = 233.600 mm2 Requirement: As measured > 0.9 x as built area 233.600 < 0.9x272.00=244.800
