Types of PSC deficiencies and how to deal with these?

35

port-state-control

Let me start by asking this question.

Can you be sure that your ship will always get “Nil” deficiency for each of the port state inspections done during your tenure?

If Yes, then this post is not for you.

That is because if there are no PSC deficiencies, there is nothing to handle.

But I know and you know, that no one can be so sure about deficiencies during port state control inspections.

Even if you work on the best ship in the world or with the  best company in the world, you still can’t be sure of zero deficiencies during port state control.

If not anything else, you may get a PSC deficiency to which you may not agree to.
