Port State Control (PSC): Ship Inspection & Compliance
Year: 2026 Author: Gökdeniz TURAN Language: English Genre: Udemy eLearning Video Playtime: 8 sections • 59 lectures • 3 hours on-demand video• 7h 15m total length • 2 practice tests Quality: HDRip Format: MP4 Video codec: AVC/H.264 Audio codec: AAC Video: 1920x1080 H.264 30 fps Audio: AAC 44.1 KHz x 128 Kbps Description: Port State Control (PSC) inspections can affect a vessel’s safety, schedule, operating costs, and reputation. This practical course helps shipboard and shore-based personnel understand how PSC inspections work and how to build reliable compliance practices before the inspector arrives. You will learn how inspection selection, scope, findings, rectification, and possible detention fit into the wider maritime safety and environmental framework. Start with the roles of the port State, flag State, class, company, master, and crew. Then develop a working understanding of the convention areas commonly examined during PSC inspections, including SOLAS, MARPOL, STCW, Maritime Labour Convention requirements, load lines, navigation safety, and ship security. The course focuses on the evidence inspectors seek: valid certificates, maintenance records, logs, drills, risk assessments, permits, equipment condition, and competent crew demonstrations. Progress through a repeatable inspection-day workflow, from pre-arrival readiness planning and document control to escorting the inspector, responding to evidence requests, conducting demonstrations, and managing the closing meeting. You will also assess deficiencies, apply immediate risk controls, support corrective action and root-cause analysis, and recognize patterns that can signal systemic weakness or detention risk. High-risk areas such as life-saving appliances, fire safety, machinery, pollution prevention, bridge operations, and crew welfare are addressed through a practical readiness lens. What you'll learn • Explain the Port State Control inspection lifecycle and distinguish PSC from flag-State surveys, class activities, and vetting. • Interpret PSC deficiencies, clear grounds, detention terminology, and the convention areas relevant to common findings. • Apply a pre-arrival PSC readiness workflow for documents, equipment condition, crew preparation, and inspection-day coordination. • Evaluate deficiency patterns, implement risk controls, and develop evidence-based corrective actions to reduce repeat findings. Who this course is for: • Deck and engine officers preparing for Port State Control inspections. • Masters, chief officers, chief engineers, and department heads responsible for shipboard readiness. • Shore-based marine, technical, safety, quality, and compliance personnel supporting vessels. • Maritime students and junior seafarers seeking a practical introduction to PSC compliance.
