Safety
All personnel engaged in testing shall be informed about the risks and consequences of wire (steel wire rope or nylon) failure and keep stay aware during testing. Test data reading should be easily read from a safe location or a remote readout.

Test Procedure
2. Wind speed should be 10 knot or less, or such that it does not measurably affect the bollard
pull result.
3. Sea condition should be calm, current speed should be 1 knot or less in any direction.
4. The depth of water under the keel in testing area should be at least 2x vessel draft at amidship (D). 5. Towline length should be at least 2x ship length (LOA). 6. Vessel should be on even keel or trimmed to the intended operating condition in tow.
7. The draft of towing vessel should be equal to or deeper than ballast condition, but
need not be down to the summer load line mark.
5.3. Bollard Pull Testing 1. Move the towing vessel to the required position that describe in 5.1.
Towline length = 2 x LOA Load cell

towing vessel in steady condition.
2. Smoothly extend wire rope to avoid instantaneous spike tension load reading and maintain 3. 1(one) unit Telemetry Indicator should be placed on bridge for load reading reference
onboard.
4. Gradually increased main engine load to maximum continuous rpm (MCR 100%), the
operating condition for bollard pull test measurement and or other required condition (MCR 50%, 75% & 110%) if applicable.
5. Continuous load cell reading from ashore should be informed to the onboard bollard pull test
officer for reference to determining vessel steady condition with continuous steady tension load reading indication.
6. Confirmation is required from onboard bollard pull test officer to the ashore officer to start
measurement & recording the tension load reading. Onboard officer should be said Start recording now! on the radio communication to command measurement starting.
7. When onboard confirmation is accepted, the ashore officer should be send a response
by said Start recording now! and push the Start Log button displayed on the computer, it is load tension recording begin.
8. Duration of bollard pull test measurement is 5~10 minutes or other duration if applicable.
9. Load tension reading displayed as long measurement duration should be informed continuously to the onboard by ashore officer. 10. When measurement completed, the ashore officer should be informed to onboard officer by said Completed recording! and push the Stop Log button displayed on the computer, it is load tension recording ended.
11. Testing condition when tension load recording should be recorded by onboard officer and
informed to ashore officer for documentation, i.e.: Wind speed Current speed Towline length Water depth under keel
