轮机长面试问题及参考答案
轮机长是轮部的第一把手，也是船上仅次于船长的重要管理人员。

实践表明，没有很好的轮机长是很难保证船舶的安全的。

目前，世界主要船队的船舶老化问题相当严重，而要保证大龄船舶的营运安全，没有很好的轮机班子是很难实现的。

因此，船东在面试船员时轮机长往往是他们考核的重点。

特别是东南亚的很多船东公司，他们对轮机长的考核从技术到管理，每一环都很严格。

对轮机长的经验、技术和解决实际问题的能力尤其相当重视。

我们认为，轮机长不但要有丰富的经验、灵活的头脑，也要有很好的管理能力和团队工作精神，只有这样，才能管好轮机班子，才能和船长以及甲板部的管理工作配合好。

另外，经验表明，相对船长和甲板部队的人员而言，轮机长的英语相对稍弱一些，希望在业余时间下苦功练习英语听力和写作。

面试时主要是看你的听力理解，而在国外船上干时主要是做一些英文的确PAPER WORK，另一方面，随着ISM的生效和强制实施，PSC检查和EXTRA AUDIT方面的审核都要求一定的听力和书写方面的能力。

下面的一些问题不但有技术方面的，也有很多是管理方面的，请轮机长在阅读时能举一反三，联想到其他船东可能考到的问题。

1. Can you tell something about your last ship? What types (brands) of main engine have you ever experienced?
My last ship (type of engine, horse power, trading area, GRT/DWT, etc.)
I have experience with several different types of main engines, such as Sulzer, B&W, MAN, PC etc.
2. What abilities should a Chief Engineer possess?
First, I think it is very important for a Chief Engineer to be skillful and proficient at work. Second, he should maintain good management in the engine department. Third, he should be able to try to motivate every person under his management by assigning jobs fairly among them. Fourth, he needs to be good in English and language communication. Last, it is very important for a Chief Engineer to maintain good relationship with the Master, the technical superintendent and other personnel from company, First Engineer and the Chief Officer. Above all, he should listen to orders from the Master in most cases.
轮机长不是船上的轮机总工程师，也是仅次于船长的重要的管理人员。

因此，在做好自己技术工作的同时，更应该考虑如何做好管理工作。

轮机长和船长的配合也是非常关键的。

上面的答案仅供参考。

3. What were the consumption rates of cylinder lube oil and fuel oil in your previous ship?
For your reference: for a 10000HP main engine, the consumption rate of fuel oil could be roughly 20~25
tons per day, cylinder oil about 280~310 liters per day (depending on the engine type).
The duty engineer should check to see if the consumption is normal. The Second Engineer usually is responsible for checking the fuel oil and recording the figures in the Engine Log Book. Lube oil should be checked on every duty watch. The Chief Engineer is responsible for application of the supplies of lube oil and fuel oil.
4. Can you please describe in detail the bunkering procedures?
I should make a bunkering plan firstly according to the ship owner’s instructions and then report the plan to the Master for approval.
Secondly, a bunkering meeting should be held to specify the responsibilities of crew during the procedure. Thirdly, preparations of the following like plugs, extinguishers, drums, alarms, communication means, and fuel oil system graphics (drawing) should be made.
Fourthly, I should order the Third Engineer to measure the oil volume in the supplier’s tanks and record the flow meter figures.
Bunkering starts after all is ready. I should order the duty engineer to take sounding all the time, especially at the beginning and at the end of bunkering each tank. My duty engineers should pay attention to the oil pressure, the temperature and the oil sample to be taken and used as evidence in the future.
Lastly, I should not sign the receipts, regardless of any delay, until quantities of the bunkered oil are confirmed. I should also note down any dispute over the quantity or adverse specifications of bunkers taken on the receipt and advise the company.
I should bear the following precautions in my mind during bunkering.
Before bunkering, I need to make sure that all scuppers are plugged and cemented. I should stop ballasting, de-ballasting and taking fresh water on board whist bunkering, if possible. If I have to do all the jobs together, I should take all care to prevent an overflow of water and fuel oil. If the decks become awash due to such water overflow or rain, then bunkering should be stopped whilst the scuppers are being drained.
5. Please tell me the minimum safe oxygen percentage for the safety of the workers in an enclosed space. Please describe the procedures of entry into and work in enclosed spaces.
More than 18% and no more than 23% of oxygen in an enclosed space will be OK for the safety of the workers.
The procedures are as follow
First, I should prepare an entry permit to be signed by the Master.
Second, before entry is allowed, all the relevant manholes should be opened for ventilation.
Third, the air and surrounding of the enclosed space should be tested to see whether it is safe.
Fourth, necessary equipment like the fire extinguisher, lights, communication equipments should be carried by the crew when entering.
Fifth, before entry into an enclosed space, a meeting regarding the work procedure should be held. Lastly, when someone is working in a enclosed space, good communication between the crew inside and the crew outside should be maintained and the emergency rescue team should stand by for any rescue work.
When entering, at least one of the crew inside is to do the loo kout job. During the crew’s stay in the space, ventilation should be continuously on to provide enough oxygen.
6. What is a “Bunkering Plan”?
A bunkering plan is made according to the owner’s and / or charterer’s order, the passage (voyage) plan, and capacity of the tanks, oil ROB, and so on. A bunkering plan is made by the Chief Engineer and approved by the Master and the company.
Generally, the volume of the bunkered oil shouldn’t exceed 85% of tank capacity.
7. What will you do if the oil supplied by the oil company is less than the agreed amount after bunkering?
Receipts should not be signed, regardless of any delay, until quantities are confirmed by all parties concerned. Any dispute over the quantity or adverse specifications of bunker taken shall be noted on the fuel receipt and the company should be advised accordingly.
8. Did you ever encounter any mechanic problems on board your previous vessels? How did you handle them?
It is suggested to answer this question frankly and honestly.
不必编造故事，除非故事是完整的，没有任何疏漏的。

9. The ISM Code requires preventive maintenance schedules. How do you make your maintenance schedules?
According to the ISM Code, the preventive maintenance plan is made based on the ship’s “Planned Maintenance System” and the m achinery running hour records. This plan should be made on an annual basis (or a five-year basis). Usually, the monthly maintenance schedules are made based on the annual preventive maintenance schedules are made based on the annual preventive maintenance plan and the basic occasional maintenance work.
10. Have you ever been to the US ports? Are you familiar with the USCG inspections?
美国是是世界上港口国检查最为严厉的国家之一。

对轮机长来说，去过美国，经历过美国的港口国检查对
船东来说是很重要的资历。

但是，若没有去过，千万不要生搬硬套，编造故事。

另外，如果您做大管轮时去过，也是很好的经历。

Some of the useful words you may use when you answer the question:
US ports: New York, New Orleans, San Francisco, Tampa, Houston, Mississippi River, etc.
USCG refers to the US coast guards.
The most important thing in US is the sanitation (hygiene). Besides, fire fighting equipments (FFE) and
life saving apparatus (LSA) and training drills must be well prepared for check.

The safety procedures include the procedures for maintenance work, overhaul and lifting
subjects, high-location and multi-layer (多层和高空作业)，hull side work, hot work, entry into enclosed space, cleaning and painting, using steel bottle and so on.
19. Name some critical (important) equipment in the engine room on board your last vessel.
According to the SMS manuals of the company on board my last vessel, the following engines and machine are critical equipment: Steering gear, winch and windlass, emergency battery, generator and emergency generator, main engines, life-boat engine, fire extinguisher pump, oil-water separator.
Different companies may name different critical equipment on board different ships. Anyway, critical equipment should be given full care in daily work and should be checked and recorded periodically.
As far as I know, some companies just name main engine, steering gear, and generator as critical equipment. Some other companies also include winch, mooring equipment, lifeboat engine etc. on the critical equipment list.
20. Under what conditions is hot work not allowed?
Hot work is not allowed under the following conditions.
(1) During cargo operation when handling flammable cargoes unless the ship has obtained
permission from terminal or port authority
(2) During bunkering
(3) In enclosed spaces or where atmosphere is suspicious
(4) On the top of the oil tanks, or any bulkhead or deck bordering on oil tanks
(5) When vessel is alongside
(6) Some other occasions that the Chief Engineer and the Master think it not allowable
(7) Under heavy weather condition
21. What is ILO Convention147? What is ISGOTT? What is COLREGS 1972?
ILO Convention 147 is The Merchant Shipping (Minimum Standards) Convention, 1976 (No.
147) (and its Protocol of 1996). This rule is made by the International Labor Organization
Conference. In this Convention, the minimum internationally acceptable labor standards for seamen in merchant ships are stipulated. Convention No. 147 requires the flag State to adopt
minimum standards relating to safety, social security, and shipboard conditions of employment and living arrangements to be observed in merchant shipping registered under any flag.
ISGOTT means International safety Guidelines for oil Tankers and Terminals. COLREGS
means Convention on international regulations for preventing collisions at sea. These two are normal publications on board the vessel.
22. How often did the superintendent of your last vessel come on board for inspection? How
will you cooperate with the superintendent of the company in the future?
Twice a year. But for other vessels, the superintendents may come on the board more often than this. T he superintendents come on board to check the ship’s maintenance, the crew and management situation on board and put forward some suggestions.
I will respect the superintendent and try to make his work easier. Besides, during his stay on
board, I will discuss with him on some important matters concerning the maintenance of the machines and the management of the engine crew.
和公司监督配合好是件很重要的事情，不管监督代表的建议是否完全正确，也要虚心倾听，否则，可能会导致船上高级管理人员下岗。

其实，很多监督都是很有经验的船长和轮机长，他们对公司的管理体系和船况非常了解，往往从他们那里可学到很多有用的知识。

23. During bunkering, what flag should you hoist?
The B flag should be hoisted in the daytime and red lights at port sides should be turned on at night.
24. What are the possible reasons for the sudden stoppage of the main engine?
(1) The cooling water may have got some problem (most engines have got high temperature
alarm only)
(2) Over-speed of the engine
(3) Low lube oil pressure
(4) Oil mist detector alarm may be on
25. What do you usually talk about in the Safety Meeting on board a ship?
The safety meeting is held at least once a month and there should be a minutes after the
meeting. The safety meeting is chaired by the Master.
At the meeting, the Master shall review the minutes of last meeting and highlight the areas to be improved and rectified. Each department head shall report their overall work at the meeting. The accidents, incidents and non-conformities found in last month will be discussed and checked to see whether the non-conformities have been closed or not. Officers and Engineers are required to deal with the unfinished matters. Matters requiring coordination between the engine and deck department will also be discussed.

26. What ranks should not be allowed to have the shore leave at the same time?
In view of the jobs on board, the following positions and ranks can not be allowed to have shore leave at the same time: the Master and Chief Officer; the Chief Engineer and First Engineer; the Chief Engineer and Electrician; the Bosun and Pumpman (in tankers); the Chief Cook and
Second Cook (or mess boy); the Chief Officer and Pumpman (in tankers).
27. What is the maximum blood alcohol concentration (BAC) rate on board?
According to the STCW95, the BAC shall not be more than 0.08% by weight any time when being tested, but the CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) requires the BAC to be no more than
0.04%. watch-keepers are not allowed to drink any alcoholic beverage 4 hours before their watch.
28. What should a Muster List include? What kind of Must Lists did you have on the last vessel?
A Muster List should include the following points
(1) Details of emergency alarm signal
(2) How ship-abandon order will be given
(3) Substitutes for the key personnel who may become disabled
(4) The boat to which each person belongs and duties to be performed in an abandon ship situation
(5) The specific group to which a person belongs and general duties during various emergencies
(6) Any additional or specific duties
(7) Specific assembly point of each group
The Muster Lists must be ready before a ship sails
We had the following Muster Lists on board the last vessel: General emergency, fire fighting, fire in the engine, emergency steering, abandon-ship, man overboard, oil prevention station.
29. Who is a Qualified Individual (QI)?
A Qualified Individual under OPA 90 of the United States is very similar to d Designated Person of the shipowner under the ISM system. But according to the US law on pollution prevention, this person is the designated person to be nominated by the shipowner in charge of the safety and oil prevention affairs when the vessels come to the US ports. This person should be a US citizen and is familiar with the US laws and rules on oil prevention.
30. When heating the fuel oil, what should you pay special attention to?
I should pay attention to the temperature to make sure that the fuel oil is not too hot to damage the cargo in the holds, especially when loading grain, paper, wood flammable cargo, etc.
On board modern ships, the fuel oil shift pump system has replaced the steam heating pipe system in oil tanks. This system can prevent the fuel oil from being overheated to damage the cargo.
31. Do you know the Oil Pollution Act 1990 (OPA 1990)?
This Act is a law on the prevention of oil pollution in US territorial waters. It was passed in 1990 by the US congress. It mainly deals with the responsibilities, the indemnities, prevention and cleaning of the pollutants in the sea. The oil tanker crew must be familiar with this ACT.
32. Have you ever lifted pistons of a main engine or generator? What procedure do you know? Yes, I have experienced many overhaul work of main engine and auxiliary engines. The lifting of pistons shall follow the following procedure:
Firstly, a preparatory meeting shall be held and all the precautions to be taken shall be discussed. In the meeting, the personnel responsible shall be designated. General and specific tools shall be prepared for the job. All equipment should be checked before the job can be started.
When the cylinder cover is opened, the surface of the cylinder liner should be checked thoroughly. Some cleaning work including grinding ridge should be carried out. After that, the piston can be lifted out and cleaned. The parameters of the cylinder liner, piston, piston rod, piston rings, grooves and bearing clearances should be measured.

33. Why does the turbine super-charger surge (喘振)?
There are basically five main reasons.
High backpressure of the exhaust manifold and low flowing quantity; Rapid change in load Insufficient supply of fuel oil or bad combustibility
(1) Failure of turbine blade, nozzle and diffuser
(2) Narrowed scavenging of air passage or scavenge fire
34. Do you know something about the internal and the external audit? During the internal audit,
how will you cooperate with the auditors?
Usually, the internal audit is carried out once or twice a year in accordance with the owner’s SMS manuals. It is under the charge of the Designated Person (DP), or at the discretion of the DP.
The Master should hold a pre-audit meeting with the officers and engineers after receiving the audit notice. The Master should make sure that the best cooperation is provided to the auditors of the company and the documents to be audited are well prepared.
The external audit is carried out by the professional auditors. If nonconformities and
observations are found either in the internal or external audit, the ship should make rectification in the stipulated time.
35. How should you deal with the garbage on board the ship?
MARPOL 73/78 provides for detailed regulations on garbage disposal. Usually, any shipping company should have its own Garbage Management Plan in its SMS manuals. Usually, the Chief Engineer or the Chief Officer is the designated person in charge of carrying out the
garbage disposal, but all crew on board should follow the garbage management plan.
Garbage is disposed in four steps, i.e. collection, separation, processing and disposal. The Chief Engineer or the Chief Officer should make clear records in the Garbage Record Book. The Master has to make sure the Garbage Record Book is available for checks at any time.
The garbage can roughly be divided into two types: the biodegradable and persistent garbage.
The former refer to those that can be rotten by themselves, such as food paper, and wood; the latter refers to those that can not rotten themselves, such as plastic, mental etc. the persistent garbage can never be thrown into the sea.
36. How would you balance your engine after taking over power diagram? What is the use of
VIT?
This is done by adjustment of the individual pump racks on fuel injection pump. It is usually carried out after careful analysis of the results of the power diagram (indicator cards) wherein we can decide which units need adjustment. Exhaust temperatures have to be carefully
monitored since this will nearly indicate the Pmax condition. Pump rack scale should be limited to within 3 mm deviation. If after adjustment and results are negative, components such as piston rings, fuel valves, fuel injection pump, exhaust valve etc. have to be inspected at first opportunity.
VIT or variable injection timing is a device further incorporated on fuel injection pump to
automatically adjust maximum combustion pressure by changing the position of the pump barrel (changes the pump timing), which in turn control the amount of fuel delivered. It is usually
advantageous to improve the main engine running at part load to save consumption of fuel oil because the main engine may keep the proper maximum combustion pressure in comparison
with the pressure at full load.
37. Before overhauling work is done, what preparations should you make?
In every machinery overhaul, preparation is extremely important. The preparations usually include the following:
(1) Overhaul schedule (time and place to be decided)
(2) Anticipate the conditions and/or activities at the place of overhaul
(3) Check necessary spares and special tools that will be required
(4) Make necessary requisitions for spares if necessary
(5) Discuss the matter with the Master and ask for his approval
(6) Inform concerned persons of the planned overhauling work
(7) Conduct “toolbox meeting”, which should cover the following items:
Personal protective equipment
Specific duties/assignments of each crew
Time allotted for the overhauling work
Safety measure to be taken
Work to be discussed with the aid of drawing, finished plan
Tools and spares to be used
Checklist to be done prior to overhaul
Person to report to in case of doubt or trouble
After the overhaul, I should make sure of the following:
There is no leakage and that all parts have been replaced in order.
All tools used are secured in their respective location.
The spot of overhaul is cleaned.
The machinery is tried out for proper operation and function.
All safety devices are checked.
38. When you take over a vessel, in order that the turnover is smooth and that you won’t meet some problems in your future jobs, what would you normally be careful about?
I shall talk with the outgoing Chief Engineer regarding the following:
The machinery condition, status of the engine tools, spares and special tool, any forthcoming activities, inventory, port itineraries; survey and dry docking status, oil record book, engine logbook, log abstract and other important items such bunkering, PSC check, internal and eternal audits. I shall make a round of inspections throughout the ship together with the outgoing Chief Engineer and note down any unusual condition or abnormal observed.
39. What is “weardown” of a propeller shaft? How is it measured? How much clearance would you consider to be normal?
Weardown of a propeller shaft refers to the drop of the shaft or the wear of shaft bearing. The bridge gauge or weardown gauge is used to measure wear of the shaft in relation to its own housing in a static condition. I would consult the instruction manual for the normal clearance.
40. Name some machines that would require attention and preparation prior to IOPP survey.
I should pay attention to the following machines and documents before IOPP inspection:
Oily-water separator, ODM (oil discharge monitor), incinerator, bilge pumping equipment, sewage plant, oil content meter, quick closing valves, garbage management and oil record book.
I should make sure that all these machines are well prepared for survey and questioning.
•上海船人(2009-5-14 10:19:22)
41. What is “critical speed”? Why is it important to avoid this when the ship is in maneuvering or
steaming?
Critical speed is a term related to the engine RPM where the engine is not allowed to operate continuously. Critical speed will cause abnormal vibration, excessive loading condition and high torques, which in turn will cause damage to the hull and equipment of the ship.
42. Why is it important to have marine growth protection on the vessel?
It is because marine growth causes harmful and troubling effects on ship’s seawater cooling system, which could create problems on ship’s operation later on. It also causes the ship’s performance to decrease (reduced speed) due to fouling of the hull promoting frictional
resistance against the water.
43. Are you in favor of regular meetings on board? How will you conduct a management
meeting?
I think that regular management meetings are very important to the safe operation of the engine
room or even the whole ship. We can discuss some important management and technical
questions at the meeting. We can also improve our communication with each other through regular meetings. Thus, it is conducive to the cultivation of teamwork spirit and harmonious atmosphere.
44. What special tools and spare parts do you use for docking repair?
Special spanners, hydraulic tools, O-shape sealing ring and special measuring tools.
45. How do you prevent the fire in the scavenging air box?
Considerable deposits of dirty oil, sludge in the scavenging air space, can be caused fire. The draining pipes of the space must be checked carefully and keep them not to be blocked. The scavenging air space should be checked and cleaned regularly. The cylinder lubricator should be adjusted properly and all cylinder liners, piston and piston rings should be dept in good
condition.
46. What preparation should you do for entering a port?
The following preparations for entering a port should be made and confirmed by Chief Engineer.
a) Astern test in steps from ahead to astern
b) Running of generator and other necessary equipment
c) Check alarm system
d) Steering gear test with 12 hours prior entry to a port
e) Other necessary matters
47. Please give a brief description of fuel oil system?
The fuel oil system includes the equipments and mechanisms used to transfer the fuel oil from storage places to the combustion in the cylinder. The fuel oil system can be divided into two parts, the supply and the injection system. The function of the supply system is providing the fuel oil from the storage places to the injection system. The function of the injection system is providing the proper amount of fuel oil at the right time and in a suitable condition for
combustion process.
48. What equipment in engine room is usually inspected during the PSC safety inspection?
Skylights quick-closed gear, the ventilator quick-closed damper, emergency generator,
emergency switchboard, emergency steering gear, emergency fire pump, the oily water
separator, the incinerator and the sewage treatment plant.。
