- a proper record is maintained of the movements and activities relating to the ship’s engineering systems
- transmission and reception of messages are consistently successful and communication records are complete, accurate and comply with statutory requirements
- main and auxiliary machinery operations are planned and carried out in accordance with operating manuals, established rules and procedures to ensure safety of operations and avoid pollution of the marine environment
- deviations from the norm are promptly identified
- the output of plant and engineering systems consistently meets requirements, including bridge orders relating to changes in speed and direction
- the causes of machinery malfunctions are promptly identified and actions are designed to ensure the overall safety of the ship and the plant, having regard to the prevailing circumstances and conditions
- transmission and reception of messages are consistently successful
