OWS Operations & Oil Record Book Compliance

175,00 

This course covers the legal and technical requirements for preventing marine oil pollution under international MARPOL regulations. It focuses on how to correctly operate an Oily Water Separator (OWS) to ensure bilge water pumped overboard contains less than 15 parts per million of oil, while heavily emphasizing the precise logging required in the ship’s Oil Record Book. Because errors or falsifications in this logbook frequently lead to massive environmental fines and criminal charges for crew members, the course teaches mariners exactly how to manage, discharge, and document shipboard oily waste safely and legally.
