Chief engineer’s role:-

The scope of activities of a chief engineer & his responsibilities on a time chartered vessel:-

At the time of on-hire survey, the C/E should accurately calculate the bunkers r.o.b. so that there is not any discrepancy in the bunker quantity.

Since the charterers provide bunkers to the vessel, C/E should always calculate the quantity of bunkers at all times.

The vessel’s speed & fuel oil consumption are dictated by the charterers, the C/E should make every effort to oblige the charterer’s demands in respect to the speed of the vessel and fuel oil consumption; e.g. charterers may want the vessel to proceed with economical speed or stipulated full speed etc.

Such things should be clearly taken in to account.

A particular attention is to be paid to main propulsion machinery & any equipment which is important for full operation of the vessel, so as to minimize/reduce the breakdown, so that the vessel is kept operational for the charterers use, reducing the downtime required for maintenance, during which the vessel remains off-hire.

The C/E should keep engine room log books available and accessible for charterers or their agents
