The Code on noise levels on board ships is intended to provide standards to prevent the occurrence of potentially hazardous noise levels on board ships and to provide standards for an acceptable environment for seafarers. These standards were developed to address passenger and cargo ships.
Qsafe Pte. Ltd offer full range of sea trial services and diagnostic surveys to solve on board noise and vibration problems. Our main objectives are improvement of passenger’s comfort, increment of the ships performance and increment of life of the ship.
Qsafe Pte. Ltd works in a systematic and professional way. We first determine the source of noise and vibration then the path of transmission is determined. After gaining all the information we need we apply appropriate methods to reduce noise and vibration. The techniques we use include finite element technique, strain measurement and many more.
We provide our expert professional services in Singapore and all-over in Asian waters.

IMO noise regulations

IMO stands for International Maritime Organization known as the inter-Governmental Maritime Consultative Organization was established in Geneva in 1984. IMO noise regulations are set up to provide guidance to administration, to guide about maximum noise exposure limits and to provide international uniformity. This should be kept in mind that these regulations are for general ships; the ships differing from conventional ones might need different consideration.
IMO noise regulations also set mandatory maximum noise level limits for machinery spaces, control rooms, workshops, accommodation and other spaces on board ships.
