BWTS (Ballast Water Treatment System) survey report
In order to determine how and where to install a Ballast Water Treatment System on the target vessel, as well as the required characteristics of the system, a feasibility study needs to be conducted. This phase involves the collection and review of vessel documentation. No single system offers a perfect fit for all vessel types, and this review helps establish the vessel’s specific needs. The survey report is the feasibility study and survey on board to verify available spaces and constraints. Onboard Survey is conducted with focus on the following aspects:
-
Space
-
Fresh Water & Compressed Air Demands
-
Electrical Power Demand
-
Sludge discharges
-
Electrical connections
-
Maintenance Space
-
Foundation and Structural Integration
-
Control System Integration
