Port State Control (PSC) is increasingly active on a world-wide basis in meeting their commitment
to combat against sub-standard shipping. They will continue to take measures to improve and
enhance PSC activities, to ensure compliance with applicable requirements for safety, pollution
prevention and manning conditions on board. Several ships are detained and cannot leave the port
until reported serious/detainable deficiencies have been rectified. This of course implies possible
delay and financial losses to the ship operators.
In addition, detained ships are made public on the web and in the press resulting in loss of
reputation for all parties involved. Multiple detentions will have a severe impact on the ability of a
ship and its company to trade unhindered.
