Norway is one of only 11 countries to meet the Paris MOU’s criteria for a Low Risk Ship
12.02.2010

Effective date for the New Inspection Regime (NIR) is 1.January 2011.

With the introduction of the NIR the PMoU will change its target of inspecting 25% of individual ships calling at each Member State to a shared commitment for full coverage of inspecting all ships visiting ports and anchorages in the PMoU region as a whole.
The Target Factor will be replaced by the Ship Risk Profile.
The Ship Risk Profile classifies ships into Low Risk Ships (LRS) and High Risk Ships (HRS). If a ship is neither Low Risk nor High Risk it is classified as Standard Risk Ship (SRS).

The company performance criteria for the calculation of the "Ship Risk Profile" is a new parameter in the PMoU.
The PMoU has established a formula which takes into consideration the deficiencies and detentions in the last 36 months of the company's fleet, based on the IMO company number and compares it to the average of all vessels inspected in the PMoU to determine the performance level. The companies will be ranked into very low, low, medium and high.
Any Refusal of Access (Ban) will have a negative impact on the ranking of the company will be subject to more in-depth and more frequent inspections.
