Statutary ship certification

Sve veći porast međunarodne razmjene dobara na svjetskoj razini dovelo je do naglog razvoja pomorskog prometa kao najjeftinijeg oblika prijevoza. Izravna posljedica toga su zahtjevi brodara za brodovima sve veće nosivosti što je rezultiralo razvojem novih tehnologija i primjenom novih materijala u njihovoj gradnji. Istovremeno su porasli i zahtjevi zakonodavne regulative koja se odnosi na sigurnost plovidbe brodova na moru i na zaštitu morskog okoliša od onečišćenja s brodova. Brod je prijevozno sredstvo koje prometuje teritorijalnim vodama mnogih zemalja pa, osim što mora udovoljiti zahtjevima iz međunarodnih propisa, mora udovoljiti i zahtjevima iz nacionalnih propisa koji su na snazi u tim državama. Kako bi se izbjegle prevelike razlike između nacionalnih propisa pojedinih država doneseni su, od strane Međunarodne pomorske organizacije, međunarodne konvencije koje se moraju obavezno primjenjivati na brodovima svih zemalja uključenih u pomorski promet. Da bi se osigurala sigurnost broda za plovidbu i za obavljanje namijenjene mu funkcije moraju se zadovoljiti tehnički zahtjevi iz Pravila za statutarnu certifikaciju pomorskih brodova koja su propisana i donesena uglavnom od strane klasifikacijskih društava u skladu s konvencijama i nacionalnim propisima. U ovom radu posebno se ističe važnost obavljanja propisanih tehničkih nadzora radi pregleda broda i njegovih uređaja, opreme i strojeva u zadanim vremenskim rokovima kako bi se izdavanjem, ili ovjerom, propisanih statutarnih isprava potvrdilo da je brod sposoban za plovidbu i za obavljanje svoje funkcije. U radu je kao primjer obrađen prikaz radnji koje se moraju obaviti prilikom pregleda kotlova, a u skladu s propisanim zahtjevima iz Pravila za tehnički nadzor pomorskih brodova.An increase of international trade of goods at world level has led to the rapid development of maritime transport as the cheapest form of transportation. A direct consequence of that are the request of the shipowners for more ships which have higher carrying capacity and that has resulted in the development of new technologies and the appliance of new materials in their construction. At the same time, the requirements of the legislative regulations related to the safety at sea and to the protection of the marine environment from pollution from ships have increased. The ship is used for the transport in territorial waters of many countries, so for that reasons it should be satisfy the requirements of the international regulations and it also has to satisfy the regulation of national legislative. To avoid too many differences between the national regulations of individual states, the International Maritime Organization has adopted international conventions that must necessarily apply to ships of all countries involved in international maritime transport. In order to ensure the safety of the ship and to perform its functions, the technical requirements of the statutory certification of ships are prescribed and adopted mostly by the classification societies as Recognized Organization in accordance with conventions and national regulations. In this paper, special emphasis is placed on the importance of carrying out the prescribed technical controls for the inspection of the ship and its devices, equipment and machinery in the prescribed deadline in order to issue or certify the statutory documents, that confirming that the ship is capable of sailing and performing its function. In the paper is processed as an example of the display of the actions that must be performed when survey the boilers, and in accordance with the applicable requirements set out in the rules for the technical supervision of ships
