#Approved equivalent arrangements
The use of an exhaust gas cleaning system (EGCS) will be allowed as an equivalent if the EGGS is at least as effective in terms of SOx emission reductions (4.3 S02(ppm)/C02 (%, v/v)) as compared to using a fuel oil with sulphur content not exceeding 0.1% m/m and satisfies the criteria set by South Korea.

#Recording requirements
In addition, ships operating inside Korean SECAs shall record the fuel oil change-over, etc. in the engineer’s logbook, or alternatively record the operation status of the EGGS. Ships using fuel oils with sulphur content not exceeding 0.1% m/m to comply with the requirements, and changing fuel oils for Korean SECAs shall record:
• Kind of fuel oil and the date, time and position of the ship when fuel-oil-change­ over operation is completed;
• The remaining volume of fuel oil in each tank (only applicable to fuel oil with sulphur content not exceeding 0.1% m/m); and
• Sulphur content of fuel oil.
The ship shall keep the above engineer’s logbook on board for a period of not less than 12 months from the time of delivery of the fuel oils to the ship.

#Fuel changeover procedure
Ships using separate fuel oils stored in separate tanks (to comply with sulphur content limit requirements) shall carry a written procedure showing how the fuel oil change-over is to be done before entering or leaving a Korean SECA.

When this Act enters into force, PSC inspections are expected for ships entering domestic ports, Prepare vessels accordingly. Vessels equipped with scrubbers, please check to see if the 0.1% SECA Mode is properly working (wherever applicable) before the effective date and report the results by email
