Marine Sulfur Record Book [MCA]
Publication in EnglishPaperback version
Essential Compliance for Maritime Operations
Navigating emission control areas (ECAs) or docking at UK ports demands strict adherence to air pollution regulations. The Marine Sulfur Record Book [MCA] is the official logbook required for vessels entering these zones, ensuring compliance with sulfur emission standards. Designed for commercial ships, passenger vessels, and UK-flagged vessels operating in British waters, this record book provides a structured format to document fuel sulfur content and fuel-switching operations. Mandated by the Merchant Shipping (Prevention of Air Pollution from Ships) Regulations 2008, it serves as a critical tool for ship captains and operators to demonstrate regulatory compliance during inspections.
Regulatory Framework and Legal Requirements
Under UK maritime law, vessels must maintain accurate records of fuel sulfur content to mitigate air pollution. The Marine Sulfur Record Book [MCA] aligns with Merchant Shipping Notice 1819 (M+F), Appendix 6, which prescribes the exact format for British-flagged ships. Non-UK vessels must also document sulfur compliance in their official logbooks. This publication ensures uniformity in record-keeping, reducing the risk of penalties during port state control inspections. By standardizing entries, it simplifies the process of tracking fuel usage and switching operations, a requirement for vessels transitioning between high-sulfur and low-sulfur fuels in ECAs.

Its structured layout includes dedicated sections for fuel oil types, sulfur content percentages, and timestamps for fuel-switching procedures.

Its compact size (0.6 kg) allows for easy storage in navigation bridges or onboard offices, while its clear, legible layout ensures quick and accurate entries.
