While the original manual primarily addressed the conventional single hull tanker, this revised edition includes 'IACS Unified Requirements (UR) Survey and Certification: Z10.4 Hull Surveys of Double Hull Oil Tankers' (Rev.18 Feb 2023), where changes introduced in Rev.18 are to be uniformly applied by IACS Societies for surveys commenced on or after 1 July 2024. The guidance also includes updated information on safety and access during surveys, including the updated 'IACS Recommendation No. 72: Confined Space Safe Practice Rev.4' (Jan 2025).
The guidance manual provides comprehensive guidance and information on IACS and owner's surveys, as well as on technical maintenance and repair. It includes guidance on structural defects, corrosion in tank spaces, fatigue and other survey procedures such as thickness measurement, which is important in monitoring.
