The operator's system for planned maintenance and repair neither accurately record the history of inspection and repair, nor ensured the proper functioning of the controllable pitch propellers and their control systems, which were critical to the safe operation of the ship. The operator's planned maintenance and repair system should be comprehensively audited to ensure it meets the outcomes required by the ISM Code. (027/10)

MNZ will require the operator to undertake a comprehensive review of their Planned Maintenance System (PMS) to ensure it meets the requirements and principles of the ISM Code. MNZ will liaise with the operator to determine an appropriate completion date. Upon completion, MNZ will conduct a targeted verification of the operator’s PMS within two months to ensure that the PMS is in compliance with the ISM code.
