Start your Sulphur & SOx Compliance recap

This quiz is designed to reinforce MARPOL Annex VI sulphur compliance, current and upcoming SOx ECAs, local sulphur restricted areas, EGCS/scrubber operation, bunkering evidence and Chief Engineer-level decision making.

Separate Regulation 14 sulphur limits from Regulation 18 fuel evidence and sampling proof.

Recall the 0.50% global limit and 0.10% ECA limit without mixing old dates.

Identify current and upcoming ECAs: Mediterranean, Canadian Arctic, Norwegian Sea and North-East Atlantic.

Explain ECA changeover calculation, fuel temperature control and statutory recording.

Apply EGCS/scrubber equivalency, monitoring, malfunction and local washwater restriction logic.

Handle PSC, BDN, MARPOL sample, FONAR and sulphur-restricted-area scenarios.

About this module

This module forms part of the TST Engineering Services E-Learning Recap Area. It supports structured MCA Engineering Oral Examination preparation by reinforcing MARPOL Annex VI Regulation 14, fuel-oil sulphur limits, ECA changeover, EGCS equivalency, fuel sampling evidence and current restricted-area awareness. It does not replace tuition or mock oral practice; it strengthens revision, recall and weak-area identification.
