PREPARING SHIP ENGINE FOR SAILING

• Take sounding of the main engine lube oil sump. Make sure that the purifier for the main
engine is running, so that oil is hot enough and clean enough.
• Now you can run the departure program for the engine. Which includes running of pumps
like main engine lube oil pump, crosshead lubrication pump, HT pumps, stern tube
pump, feed pumps for boiler (if stopped). Turn the engine with the help of turning gear for
20 minutes. You can also turn on the cylinder lubrication.
• In the meantime start from top of the engine room and check level of water in expansion
tank.
• Check the boiler for correct firing etc. Flame color and shape is important.
• Check the oil level in the working and starting air compressors. Put if necessary.
• Drain both control air and starting air bottles. Till when you don’t see any water coming
out. Also set the preference for compressor starting.
• Make sure that the indicator cocks for the main engine are open.
• Open the starting air for main engine.
• Fuel oil purifier is running.
• Bilges are at low level.
• Drain the settling and service tanks of fuel oil and check for any water.
• Generators fuel racks are lubricated and sump level checked. Also set the preference
for generator starting.

After doing all of these, you can go for following checks:

 1. Telegraph Check
2. Emergency Telegraph Check
3. Emergency Phone Check.
4. Steering Gear Check

After doing these checks, you can disengage the turning gear and close the drain of the
turbochargers. With the permission from the bridge, you can go for air blow. Just see if any
water comes out of the indicator cocks. If not, then close the indicator cocks. If yes, then you
need to identify the problem with that particular unit. Now the engine is on standby and you are
ready for the sailing.

SAFETY IN THE ENGINE ROOM

I. Answer and discuss the following questions before reading the passage.
1. What is an engine room? Have you been into a ship’s engine room?
2. What do you know about it? Where is it usually located on a vessel?
3. What must you be aware of before getting into an engine room?
4. What are the do’s and don’ts in an engine room?

II. Now, read the passage below.

On a ship, the engine room, or ER, is the propulsion machinery spaces of the vessel. To increase a
vessel's safety and chances of surviving damage, the machinery necessary for operations may be
separated into various spaces. The engine room is one of these spaces, and is generally the largest
physical compartment of the machinery space. The engine room houses the vessel's prime mover,
called main engine, usually some variations of a heat engine - diesel engine, gas or steam turbine.
On a large percentage of vessels, ships and boats, the engine room is located near the bottom, and at
the rear, or aft, end of the vessel, and usually comprises few compartments. This design maximizes
the cargo carrying capacity of the vessel and situates the prime mover close to the propeller,
minimizing equipment cost and problems posed from long shaft lines. The engine room on some
ships may be situated mid-ship, especially on vessels built from 1900 to the 1960s. With the
increased use of diesel electric propulsion packages, the engine room(s) may be located well
forward, low or high on the vessel, depending on the vessel use.The engine room of a motor vessel
typically contains several engines for different purposes. Main or propulsion engines are used to
turn the ship's propeller and move the ship through the water. They typically burn diesel oil or
heavy fuel oil, and may be able to switch between the two. There are many propulsion arrangements
for motor vessels, some including multiple engines, propellers, and gearboxes. (Source: Wikipedia)

In 50 words, what does the passage tell us about an engine room? Watch the video, it may help.

III. Safety standards in Engine Room (ER)

a) All Engine Room crew must be suitably dressed and must wear coveralls, safety shoes,
gloves, goggles and helmets as per the VMS PPE matrix.
b) Engine Room and machinery spaces must be kept clean, tidy and as free as possible from
oil/fuel stains or sources, all of which must be identified and eliminated.
c) To prevent fires, any possible source of uncontrollable heat must be protected and any fuel
leakage must be cleaned up and the source identified and eliminated.
d) No oil leak collecting tins, trays or other temporary means of collection are allowed. Save-
alls around tanks and machinery must always be kept clean and drainage trays clean.
e) Dirty rags, cotton waste etc. must be removed and all such waste must be collected and
disposed of according to the instructions set out in the Safety and Environmental
Procedures.
f) Particular attention must be paid by all Engineer Officers to valves, flanges, thermometer
pockets, pressure gauges and other elements which may work loose, on fuel and lube oil
pressurized pipes, resulting in the spray of combustible liquid onto hot surfaces. Particular
attention to this potential hazard is required in unmanned engine rooms where they can
remain undetected for long periods.

1. What do the underlined words mean?

2. Why is it a ‘must’?
3. How would it change the meaning if we used: should, or ought to, instead?

For example:

a) All Engine Room crew mustshould be suitably dressed and mustshould wear
coveralls, safety shoes, gloves, goggles and helmets as per the VMS PPE matrix.
b) Engine Room and machinery spaces mustought tobe kept clean, tidy and as free as
possible from oil/fuel stains or sources, all of which mustought tobe identified and
eliminated

Discuss the differences!

IV. Continue reading

High pressure fuel pipe shielding must be intact and properly secured. The heating of water / oil
mixtures such as oil or sludge tanks must be deemed as a critical operation. It should be kept in
mind that the ambient temperature may require the sludge / oil water mix to be heated and the
expansion volume of the liquid may cause an overflow of the tanks that have been filled close to
their maximum capacity. A maximum filling level for such tanks must be identified that leaves a
safety margin for this expansion. This level should be recorded on the checklist.

Workshops must be maintained in a clean and tidy condition with all tools kept in good working
order. The area used for welding and brazing must be clearly defined and provided with the
necessary means to prevent accidents and fires.

Oxygen and acetylene bottles must be stored outside the engine room and accommodation areas.
They must not be stored together but kept apart and securely lashed. Lockers containing gas bottles
must be properly identified.

Chemicals must be used in accordance with the maker’s instructions including any guidelines
regarding the use of protective clothing. Information on medical care to be followed in case of
accidents is to be posted in appropriate places. Product data sheets are to be kept with the chemicals
along with the appropriate protective clothing. An officer is to be designated in charge of chemical
management.

Particular care must be taken when fixing and lashing stores, bottles, drums and spares in order to
avoid personal injuries and damages.

The Chief Engineer must ensure that all checks and precautions to avoid electrical shocks are taken
by the Electrical Engineer Officer. Naked, disconnected/worn wires or open electrical equipment
are not allowed onboard. All electrical equipment must be protected and any potentially dangerous
situations immediately reported to the Chief Engineer and rectified by the Engineer Officer.

The Electrical Engineer Officer must inspect accommodation areas including cabins at regular
intervals to ensure that no potentially hazardous problems can result from the use of unauthorized
equipment and/or alterations to the electrical wiring.

All lifting equipment must be regularly tested according to the applicable rules and / or the maker’s
recommendations, under the supervision of the Chief Engineer who must maintain a record of the
same which is to include certification. Blocks, slings and similar equipment must be maintained in a
good condition and stored separately. Safe working loads must be clearly indicated in a permanent
manner. Critical measuring instrumentation must be calibrated according to rules and maker’s
instructions.

In addition to the above, it must be noted that:

  A clean and oil free engine room contributes greatly to overall safety;
 No unauthorized personnel may operate equipment or machinery;
 Visitors are only allowed in the engine room with permission of the Chief Engineer. All
visitors must be accompanied.

As a final point, the Chief Engineer is to employ all available means in order to create a safety
conscious and environmentally friendly atmosphere throughout the engine department. Such means
include the holding of meetings, the viewing of training videos and the reading of Company
manuals. All officers and ratings are to be encouraged to contribute to enhanced safety, and
improved pollution prevention measures. (Source: machineryspaces.com)

A. Reading Text
The maritime community has a series of special measures to enhance maritime security.
These are contained in the International Convention for Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS)
Chapter XI-2 and the International Ship and Port Facility (ISPS) Code. Those focus on
assisting states in the implementation, verification, compliance with, and enforcement of,
the provisions of the IMO maritime security measures, including counter-piracy initiatives
and robbery against the ship.
There are some objectives such as,
 to detect security threats and implement security measures
 To establish roles and responsibilities concerning maritime security for
governments, local administrations, ship and port industries at the national
and international level
 To collate and promulgate security-related information
 To provide a methodology for security assessments so as to have in place
plans and procedures to react to changing security levels

The Code does not specify specific measures that each port and ship must take to ensure
the safety of the facility against terrorism because of the many different types and sizes of
these facilities. Instead it outlines "a standardized, consistent framework for evaluating
risk, enabling governments to offset changes in threat with changes in vulnerability for
ships and port facilities."

• For ship framework include ship security plans, officers, company security officers and
certain on Board equipment

• For port facilities frameworks include port facility security plans, port facility security
officer and Certain security equipment
• In addition the requirements for ships and for port facilities include monitoring and
controlling access, monitoring the activities of people and cargo, and ensuring security
communications which are readily available

Answer these questions based on the knowledge above!

1. What is the content of SOLAS Chapter XI2 and ISPS Code?

2. Mention one of the aims of ISPS code?
3. What are the requirements of evaluating risk framework for ships and port facilities
included?

B. The story of Pirating on Board ship

Match the paragraph with the pictures!

1. One evening after sunset when the Milamar was in port, three men came on board.
They were pirates who intended to steal personal belongings from the crew. They knew
that the Milamar was in port for four days and that many of the crew members were
visiting the town for the evening. In fact, fifteen of the twenty-five crew were not on
board the vessel that evening.

2. The pirates used grappling hooks to climb aboard the vessel. The two crew members on
watch didn’t hear the pirates jump over the railings because they were listening to the
radio. The Captain was sleeping and didn’t hear the three men as they ran past his cabin
door. The pirates went straight to the ratings’ cabin hoping to steal money, stereos,
watches, and other valuable items.

3. The pirates heard a seafarer snoring in the first cabin so they didn’t enter. But they
didn’t hear anything in the second cabin. So two of the pirates broke the lock of the
door and one kept watch outside. They didn’t know that a young cadet was sleeping
inside the cabin.

4. The cadet heard something strange. He was getting out of bed to check the noise when
the two pirates opened his door and switched out the light. The cadet was shocked to
see three men holding guns in his room and he shouted for help. The pirates were
shocked to see him in the room and they pushed him to the floor. The cadet hit his head
and fell unconscious.

5. Down the corridor, an engineer heard the call for help. He ran to the cadet’s cabin
wearing his sock and pajamas. But when he got there, the door was open, the cadet was
lying unconscious on the floor and the pirates were running down the corridor.

6. The engineer tried to chase the pirates but he slipped on the stairs in his socks. He
started shouting for help but it was too late. The pirates were already climbing down the
rope, jumping into their boat and escaping back to the shore. One of the pirates was
carrying a bag from the cadet’s cabin.

I.1. How Maintenance Work is Done Onboard a Ship?

Maintenance is one thing that keeps any mechanical equipment or machinery going. Either it is
a small machine or a large structure; efficient maintenance can help with prolonged life and
favorable outcome. On a ship, maintenance is one thing that keeps machinery up to date and in
smooth running condition.

In a ship’s engine room, where the maximum machines are located, engineers and crew
carry out the maintenance for safe and efficient operation. Each machine on board a ship
requires maintenance which has to be carried out at regular intervals of time.

Many ships carry only 3-4 engineers on board a ship and even the time required to carry out
maintenance on the ship has reduced.  Maintenance requires manpower and time which may not
be available all the time as the number of crew members is less and the amount of machinery is
more. It is for this reason, it is important to plan the maintenance of the machinery in advance
so that the machinery can be overhauled and maintained properly. Generally second engineer is
required to plan the schedule of maintenance on a ship. Efficient planning and adequate usage
of equipment are the keys to productive maintenance.
 Questions:

1. Why is maintenance important?

2. Where do the engineers and crew carry out the maintenance? Why?

3. Why is it important to plan the maintenance of the machinery in advance? Who is

usually responsible to arrange the maintenance schedule?

4. What are the keys to productive maintenance?

5. What is productive maintenance?

Now, we will have a look at the main types of maintenance procedures followed on a ship.

1) Preventive or Scheduled Maintenance System

It is famously known as the PMS or Planned Maintenance System. In this type of system the
maintenance is carried out as per the running hours like 4000 hrs., 8000 hrs. etc., or by the calendar
intervals like 6 monthly, yearly etc. of the machinery. The maintenance is carried out irrespective of
the condition of the machinery. The parts have to be replaced if it is written in the schedule, even if
they can still be used.

2) Corrective or Breakdown Maintenance

In this system the maintenance is carried out when the machinery breaks down. This is the reason it
is known as the breakdown maintenance. This is not a suitable and good method as situations may
occur wherein the machinery is required in emergency. The only advantage of this system is that the
working of machinery parts is used to its full life or until it breaks. This system might get costly as
during breakdown several other parts may also get damaged.

3) Condition Maintenance system

In this system the machinery parts are checked regularly, with the help of sensors etc. The condition
of the machinery is accessed regularly and the maintenance is done accordingly. This system
requires experience and knowledge as wrong interpretation may damage the machinery and lead to
costly repairs which may not be acceptable by the company.

Questions:

1. What are the differences between Planned Maintenance and Breakdown

Maintenance?

2. Why does the Condition Maintenance system require knowledge and experience?
I.2. How is Marine Engine Repair Done On board a Ship?

Need of Marine Engine Repair

Marine engine parts need to be checked on regular basis to avoid breakdown or heavy loss caused
by ship going off charter. Marine engine repairs are carried out by the marine engineer as per his
basic understanding of the machine, sound troubleshooting knowledge and correct techniques used
for testing and overhauling.

Moreover, there are several agencies around the world that provide services for marine engine
repairs, which cannot be done by marine engineers on board the ship due lack of special equipment
and manpower. Some examples of heavy maintenance of marine engine repairs are metal stitching
or metal locking, recondition of piston, honing of liners etc.

Questions:

1. Who carries out the engine repair on board?

2. Some marine engine repairs can’t be done on board, why?

Understanding Marine Engine Repair

When we talk about marine engine repairs, they not just include maintenance and repair work on the
mechanical parts of the engines but also include repairs on various electrical equipment as well.
Thus, marine engine repair is categorized in two parts – electrical and mechanical.

For an effective performance of the marine engine and in order to prevent breakdown of the same
proper procedures are to be followed as described in the manuals. Marine engine repairs have to be
done at specific running hours as described in the planned maintenance system of the ship.

On board ship there is a team of marine engineers or marine mechanics, along with crew ratings
such as motorman, oiler, fitter, etc. to carry out the work of marine engine repairs.

The team of engineers includes chief engineer, second engineer, third engineer and fourth engineer.
Chief and second engineer are management level officers, whereas third and fourth engineers are
operational level engineers.

The chief engineer looks after different surveys that are to be carried out on the marine engine and
also plans out when they are to be carried out. The second engineer plans the marine engine repair
work that is pending or scheduled to be due soon.

The second engineer also looks after main engine and different pumps in the engine room. The
fourth engineer looks after the repairs of compressors and purifiers whereas third engineer looks
after the boiler and auxiliary engines along with the help of crew ratings.

For electrical equipment the repairs are carried out by a separate dedicated electrical engineer, who
looks after various motors, batteries, print card electronics etc.

The chief engineer looks after different surveys that are to be carried out on the marine engine and
also plans out when they are to be carried out. The second engineer plans the marine engine repair
work that is pending or scheduled to be due soon.
The second engineer also looks after main engine and different pumps in the engine room. The
fourth engineer looks after the repairs of compressors and purifiers whereas third engineer looks
after the boiler and auxiliary engines along with the help of crew ratings.

For electrical equipment the repairs are carried out by a separate dedicated electrical engineer, who
looks after various motors, batteries, print card electronics etc.

Questions:

3. Marine engine repairs exclude all electrical equipment.

4. Marine engine repair comprise electrical and mechanical repairs.

5. Marine engine repairs can be done at any possible time.

6. Who are the crew in the engine room?

7. Who belong to the management level officers and who are at operational level?

8. Who is responsible to schedule repair work plan?

9. What is the responsibility of the third engineer?

10. Purifiers are taken care of by the 4th engineer. True of False?

Important Points for Marine Engine Repair

For marine engine repair, the most important thing is to make available several sets of spare parts
on board the ship. If there is a shortage of any of these parts, then they need to be ordered by the
respective engineer, who is looking after the particular machinery. Some special considerations also
need to be given to emergency, safety and lifesaving equipment.

Marine engineer also have to make sure that all the equipment are working fine without any
problem. External agencies such as port state control and flag state will detain the ship if equipment
like emergency generator, life boat engine, and firefighting system are not working properly. The
agencies may fine the ship heavily for these abnormalities.

For this reason, proper checks and routine schedule have to be maintained to avoid unwanted
circumstances related to marine engines on board a ship.
Questions:

1. Who can detain the ship if the firefighting equipment is found to be not working
properly?

2. Why must proper care and routine schedule be maintained?

II. Grammar: Passive Voice

• In the active voice, the subject of the sentence DOES the action:

John painted the house last week.

Subject / verb / object

• In the passive voice, the subject of the sentence RECEIVES the action.

The house was painted last week.

Subject / verb

• Notice that the object of the active sentence (house) became the subject of the passive
sentence.

Passive Voice: Use

• We do not know who did the action

Example: The documents were stolen.
(we don’t know who stole the documents)

• The receiver of the action is more important

Example: The pyramids were built nearly 5,000 years ago by the ancient Egyptians.
(we want to emphasize “pyramids” more than “ancient Egyptians”)

Passive Voice: Form

To change an active voice sentence to a passive voice sentence:

• Make the object of the active sentence into the subject of the passive sentence.

• Use the verb “to be” in the same tense as the main verb of the active sentence.

• Use the past participle of the main verb (Vb-3) of the active sentence.
Examples

 Active:People drink champagne on New Year’s Eve.

Passive: Champagne is drunk on New Year’s Eve.
 Active:Cooks use these machines to mix the ingredients.
Passive: These machines are used to mix the ingredients.

 Active:They painted the railing 2 days ago.

Passive: The railings was painted 2 days ago.
 Active:The teachers informed the students that the class had been cancelled.
Passive:The students were informed that the class had been cancelled.

Passive Voice: Present

is / am/ are + past participle of the main verb

The passive voice present is often used to describe:

• Processes
First the apples are picked, then they are cleaned, and finally they’re packed and shipped to
the market.

• General thoughts, opinions, and beliefs

New York is considered the most diverse city in the U.S.
It is believed that Amelia Earhart’s plane crashed in Pacific Ocean.
Hungarian is seen as one of the world’s most difficult languages to learn.
Skin cancers are thought to be caused by excessive exposure to the sun.

Passive Voice: Past

was and were + past participle of the main verb

The passive voice past is often used to describe:

• Events in history
George Washington was elected president in 1788.

• Crimes / Accidents
Two people were killed in a drive-by shooting on Friday night.
Ten children were injured when part of the school roof collapsed.

• …or in many other situations when the person who did the action is unknown or

COMMUNICATIONS AT SEA
Communication at sea involves the transfer of intelligence (information) between
various points at sea or shore, i.e. ship-to-shore and ship-to-ship communication.
The way to communication is possible by sound or visual signaling and by radio
or electronic communications. Signaling is divided into flag signaling, flashing
light signaling using Morse symbols, sound signaling by Morse symbol, or voice
signaling over a loud hailer, and signaling by radio, i.e. radiotelegraphy.
Maritime communications are used for safety, navigational, commercial and
miscellaneous purposes.
The ship's communicational equipment has undergone a revolutionary
development and ranges from the traditional hand flags or arms, the hoist, flares,
semaphore, bells, voice hailers, to the modern equipment used in radio or
wireless telegraphy (WT), radiotelephony (RT) and satellite communications.
SSB (single side band) transmitters, walkie-talkie sets, VHF and FM receivers,
transceivers, telex, fax, satcoms, and computers displaying digital data arc found
on almost every modemship.
Most communications today are carried out by radiotelephony. Safety
communications must use simple and clear language. To avoid any possible
misunderstanding the language of the safety communication procedures has been
codified, first into Morse Signaling Code by ITU, followed later by the
International Code of Signals (ICS). IMO has standardized maritime English into
what is known today as "IMO Standard Marine Communication Phrases". SMCP
is the most recent improvement of the IMO Standard Vocabulary for use in
maritime communications, principally by VHF radio.
Any conversation, i.e. a ship-to-ship, ship-to-shore or shore-to-ship exchange,
consists of the following stages:
1. MakingContact
2. Exchange ofMessage
3. EndProcedure

Making Contact
If the name of the ship or station being called is unknown, the following making
contact procedure is recommended by SMCP (Standard Marine Communication
Phrases 1997) and SEASPEAK:

Calling station

ALL SHIPS, ALL SHIPS, ALL SHIPS, (IN SEA AREA...,)

CALLING *UNKNOWN SHIP IN POSITION:

- BEARING: 1-8-5 DEGREES FROM PUNTASTELLA

- DISTANCE: 4.6 MILES THIS IS NEWHAVEN RADIO. I-0-4-N OVER

 Callingunknownship.Type:Containership:hullcolor:blue,funnel,red...
 Responding station
NEWHAVEN RADIO.I-0-4-N.

THIS IS SEA URCHIN, N-W-E-9. IN POSITION:

- BEARING: 1-8-5 DEGREES FROM PUNTA STELLA

- DISTANCE: 4.6 MILES OVER

In the making contact stage it is usually necessary for one station to indicate the working
channel and the other to agree to it, e.g.:

Calling station

SEA URCHIN. THIS IS NEWHAVEN RADIO. SWITCH

TO VHF CHANNEL TWO - TWO OVER

Responding station

NEWHAVEN RADIO, THIS IS SEA URCHIN. AGREE

VHF CHANNEL TWO - TWO; OVER

If the name of a ship or station is known (i.e. its name and call sign), the making contact
procedure is as follows:

Calling station

PONTEBBA, 1-Q-W-T,
PONTLBBA, 1-Q-W-T.

THIS IS SEA URCHIN, N-W-F-9, SEA

URCHIN, N-W-F-9,

ON VHF CHANNEL ONE - SIX. OVER

Responding station

SEA URCHIN, N-W-F-9,

THIS IS PONTEBRA. 1-Q-W-T. OVER

 Exchange of Messages
In the message exchange procedure the following message markers (i.e. words introducing
the content and purpose of the message) are:

MessageMarker Answer to MessageMarker

Question Answer
Instruction (Instructionreceived)

Advice (Advicereceived)

Request (Requestreceived)

Intention (Intentionreceived)

EXAMPLES

Question Answer

BUOY NUMBER: ONE - FIVE UNLIT BUOY NUMBER: ONE - TWO UNLIT

End Procedure
In the end procedure the conversation is terminated (e.g. NOTHING MORE), using a
polite greeting (HAVE A GOOD WATCH, HAVE A PLEASANT VOYAGE TO) and the phrase
OUT Or OVER AND OUT; e.g.:

Pontebba

... NOTHING MORE. THANK YOU. HAVE A PLEASANT VOYAGE TO CEUTA. OVER

Seaside VTS

PONTEBBA, THIS IS SEASIDE VTS. THANK YOU. HAVE A GOOD WATCH. OVER

KEEPING WATCH IN THE ENGINE ROOM

Watch keeping is an integral part of marine engineer’s duties on board ship. A lot of
maintenance work can be reduced by following an efficient watch keeping routine in the ship’s engine
room. Moreover, it can also avoid serious accidents from taking place. But what is the true yard stick for
measuring the efficiency of a watch keeping procedure? Ship engine room watch keeping duties and
routines are carried out by Engineer Officers. The watches are split into three 4-hour spells of duty, that
goes by quite quickly as there are many checks to be carried out on the main and auxiliary engines, along
with the numerous pumps and coolers.

The regulation on Watch keeping:

• Establish and enforce rest period for watch keeping personnel and those whose duties involve
designated safety, security and prevention of pollution duties 
• Require that watch system are so arranged that the efficiency of all watch keeping personnel is not
impaired by fatigue and that duties are so organized that the first watch at the commencement of
the voyage and subsequent relieving watches are sufficiently rested and otherwise fit for duty.
• Officer in charge of an engineering watch, as define in the STCW Code, under the direction of the
chief engineer officer, shall be immediately available on call to attend the machinery spaces and,
when required, shall be physically present in the machinery spaces during their period of
responsibility
 • All persons who are assigned duty as officer in charge of the watch or as a rating forming part of a
watch and those whose duties involve designated safety, prevention of pollution and security duties
shall be provided with a rest period of not less than a minimum of 10 hours of rest in any 24hour
period and 77 hours in any 7-day period

QUESTIONS:
1. What is the importance of Watch keeping on Board ship?
2. What are the duties involved in watch keeping regulation?
3. What are the requirements for all personnel to obtain the effective watch keeping?
4. What is the duty of officer in charge of engineering watch?
5. How long the rest period of officer in charge of watch?

GRAMMAR:
Present Perfect Simple VS Present Perfect Progressive

The Pattern
Present Perfect simple
• I / you / we / they have repaired the engine
• He / she / it has been repaired the engine
(Result: the engine is in good condition now)
Present Perfect Progressive
• I / you / we / they have been repairing the
engine
• He / she / it has been repairing the engine
(that’s how someone repair the engine, it
doesn’t matter the engine is in good
condition now)

Exercise!
Put the verbs into the correct tense
(Present Perfect Simple or Present Perfect Progressive).

1. A : Is Henry still working?

B : No, He …… (finish)

2. A : …… (you/phone) the office yet?

B : I …… (try) for an hour but I can’t get through

3. A : How long …… (you/know) him?
