Preface
The Association of Asian Classification Societies, since its formalization in
2010, has been committed to various technical activities with an aim to promote
ship safety and protect marine environment. Such efforts have been tailor-made
to Asian region by providing technical guidelines or exchanging views on
maritime issues with various stakeholders in the region.
This publication has been developed following the strategy and policy of ACS.
It is sincerely wished that those who read this report may get a chance to look at
the PSC performance of vessels registered by ACS member Societies, and that
this may add value to the work of all stakeholders in Asia.

1. General
This Report was developed to provide Asian shipowners with the PSC detention
data of ships classed with ACS member Societies and information regarding the
recent PSC inspection tendency such as major deficiencies found during various
PSC inspections
PSC detention data in this Report have been collected and compiled in a
common format to build awareness of the PSC deficiencies as well as to
improve the PSC records of the Asian classification Societies’ registered
vessels. The data of 2013, 2014 and 2015 have been used for such purpose.
The last part of this Report contains various example pictures of categorized
PSC deficiencies for easy reference of the users of this Report.

The following statistics are excerpted for easy references.
- Inspections and detentions per flag
- Comparison of most frequent detainable deficiencies
- Inspections and detentions per ship type
