Leak Test
Leak test aims to test for leaks in the vessel body.
There are 3 types of leak test, there are hydro test,
air test, and hose test.

Survey for Ship in Service
This survey is survey for existing ship which will be
registered in RINA, they must be surveyed first to
ensure the society that the vessel are meet the
requirements of safety for human life, environment,
and property during the operational life of the ship
based on RINA rules.

Welding Check
Welding check is an inspection of welding result on the
new construction of ship when there is a weld defect.
There are many kind of weld defect, there are crack,
porosity, undercut, undersize, slag, and spatter.

21. SURVEY ITEM
Leak Test
Hydro Test
Hydro test conducted by pumping water up to 1.5 times the
working pressure or design pressure. After that surveyor
check the leak on the connection of flange pipe. If there is
water on the connection of flange pipe, it means there is a
leak.

Leak Test
Air Test
The first step was filled the air inside the tank that to be
tested. Then the outside sprayed using soapy water.
Surveyor will monitor the outside of the tank thoroughly. If
there were air bubbles on the surface of the tank, it indicates
a leak.

Leak Test
Hose Test
Process conducted is by spraying high-pressure water from
the water jet pump in the area will be checked for leaks.
Equipment needed is a water jet pump and a nozzle for
spraying pressurized water.

24. SURVEY ITEM
Inclining Test
Inclining test is a test to determine metacentric
height.
Before we did inclining test, we checked draft on this vessel. At fore in
starboard side show 1.04m, at port side show 1.08m, at after in
starboard side show 1.50m, and at port side show 1.49 m. Draft
should be measured before and after testing to assure that no major
additions to the condition of the ship during the test.
There were four areas that placed ballasts. Each area had 6 ballasts,
that a ballast had a weight 5.3 ton. It means an area had 21.2 ton
ballasts.
Figure 24. Ballasts
25. SURVEY ITEM
Inclining Test
This vessel had LPP = 42m. Vessel that had LPP > 32 use two
pendulums to did inclining test, on fore and after.
When inclining test happen, the hull of the vessel was not allowed to
touch jetty

Touch Jetty
27. SURVEY ITEM
Safety Device Function Test
Bilge Alarm
Technician set up from day tank panel. When the red
indicator lamp turned on, it means it worked on high level. But
when the yellow indicator lamp turned on, it means it worked
on low level.

Compressor
Safety device on compressor aims to decrease pressure inside the
compressor to prevent the blow out. This safety device will release
some air from the compressor automatically to release pressure
when it reached maximum pressure

Steering Gear Test
This test to be carried out to measuring time at order given to
operate the steering gear system. In main steering, move steering to
35º port and then 30º starboard using hydraulic pump, requirements
of maximum standard time is 28 sec. In emergency steering, move
steering to 25º port and then 15º starboard using steering wheel,
requirements of maximum standard time is 60 sec.
39. SURVEY ITEM
Sea Trial
Anchor Test
This test to be carried out to inspect the conditions of lowering,
heaving, stowing, and to measuring time of hoisting speed at order
given to operate it. The requirement of maximum standard of
hoisting speed time is 9 min on 3 shackles.
40. CONCLUSION
Class is expression of the degree of reliance a ship
deserves on the whole in relation to the service and
trade on which the ship is engaged, or to be engaged.
Class gives credence to client, client in this case is
shipping company, so that they are sure if the ship has
met the criteria comply with the requirements, related to
the service of ships.
