What are the survey requirements for an oil tanker undergoing 3rd special survey?

[@athulish]

Hi good day sir , have a doubt after the survey has been completed which document is endorsed saying esp survey has been completed .

[@oralexammmdprep8110]

the ESP survey report with its findings and action steps is the strongest indicator of a completed survey. It signifies the official closure of the data collection and analysis phase.

[@SC-xq9vw]

In the ESP file which to be maintained onboard can you give an example for the reports as mentioned in the 'Survey report related hull structure' which to be filed in the ESP file.

[@nardevsingh8273]

Nardev Singh

[@shoaibmhaskar3899]

Great information One query, does enhance survey programme start from delivery day of vessel?

[@oralexammmdprep8110]

It is calculated from the first flag state inspection and certification.... Then carried out on the dates of renewal surveys
