Year: 2006 Language: English Author: Kim Rolfsen Genre: Technical book Publisher: Det Norske Veritas Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 194 Description: Det Norske Veritas has experienced a number of incidents where different types of steam boilers have caused fatal accidents and material damages, especially involving oil fired auxiliary boilers older than ten years. Considering the severe consequences that equipment failure may have on crew’s safety and ship operations, steam boilers may represent a potentially high risk factor if improperly maintained. These poorly maintained boilers can result in furnace explosions, as well as rupturing of the pressurized parts. We have noted that some of our Surveyors need to increase their competence related to performance of boiler surveys. Based on this and the impression that competence related to boiler operation and maintenance is decreasing now days among seafarers, it was decided to develop this course.
