Concentrated Inspection Campaigns


Concentrated Inspection Campaigns

Concentrated inspection campaigns focus on specific areas where a higher risk of non-compliance could exist. This could be evidenced by the number of deficiencies encountered, accidents or where new convention requirements have recently entered into force. Campaigns take place yearly over a period of 3 months (September - November) and are combined with a regular inspection.
Over the years, the following topics have been the focus of a CIC:

•    2022 Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW)
