replaced by a ³Black, Grey and White List´. The tables are still

performance which are considered a high or very high risk.

does not carry valid certificates,
if the PSCO from general impressions or observations on board
has clear grounds for believing that the condition of the ship or
its equipment does not correspond substantially with the
particulars of the certificates

procedures,
more detailed inspection should be carried out.

Ship types
Looking at detentions by ship type over several years, it is noted that
general dry cargo ships and bulk carriers still account for over 74%
of all detentions.
Most ship types indicate a slowly decreasing trend in detentions.
Passenger ships have shown a substantial improvement compared
with last year.
On the other hand the detention percentage of Refrigerated Cargo
ships has increased, although it is too early to speak of a trend.
