DNV DNVGL-RU-SHIPS PART 5 CHAPTER 5 PDF

The rules in this chapter give requirements related to:

— safety hazards

— marine pollution hazards

— additional hull attributes

— functional capability of systems.

Incorporated in the rules are some SOLAS Ch. II-2 requirements, where these are specifically mentioned as applicable for tankers only. Requirements of MARPOL Annex I, insofar as design and equipment are concerned, are also covered.

Machinery installations and their auxiliary systems that support cargo handling, shall meet the same rule requirements as if they were considered to support a main function, see Pt.1 Ch.1 Sec.1 [1.2].
