Port State Control A Slideshow by Team 2

Port state control involves foreign ships being inspected when entering a port to ensure they comply with international regulations regarding the ship's condition and operation. It has its origins in the 1978 Hague Memorandum and 1982 Paris MoU in response to incidents like the Amoco Cadiz oil spill. The basic port state control procedure involves ships notifying authorities of deficiencies, undergoing an unannounced inspection starting in the master's office, and the inspectors having the right to detain ships with serious deficiencies until they are rectified. Inspections cover areas like documents, construction, machinery, safety, pollution prevention, communications, accommodations, and compliance with codes like the ISM and MLC. Detention occurs for very serious or unresolved deficiencies

the vessel is scheduled to stay in port;
The deficiencies on a vessel are so serious that they will have to be rectified before the ship sails.

A ban is a measure imposed on an individual ship. Once banned, a transfer of company, flag or change in
other involved parties does not revoke a ban or otherwise shorten the applicable periods mentioned.
BANNING

Ships are banned after multiple detentions: these ships will be refused access to any port in the region
of the Memorandum for a minimum period. The refusal of access following multiple detentions will
become applicable as soon as the ship leaves the port or anchorage.
Ships which jump detention or fail to call at an indicated repair yard are banned: these ships will be
refused access to any port in the region of the Memorandum.
