Performance requirement

Behavior	Standard
The student will:	During assessment, the student shall, at a minimum:
As TG/SSDG Oiler monitor the ship’s electrical generators monitor main and auxiliary switchboards monitor generator prime movers including: steam tubines and associated equipment Wärtsilä diesel and associated equipment record operating conditions on the TG/SSDG Oiler’s log	perform all duties of the TG/SSDG Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs
As Lower Oiler monitor the operation of the lube oil purifier, propulsion shafting and bearings and other machinery located in the Lower Engine room Charge the potable water hydro-pneumatic tank with compressed air as necessary to prevent short cycling of the potable water pump monitor the tank levels and temperatures in the fuel oil settling tanks record operating conditions on the Lower Oiler’s log	perform all duties of the Lower Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs
As AMR Oiler monitor the operation of the fuel oil purifier, the air compressor and other machinery located in the Auxiliary Engine room record operating conditions on the AMR Oiler’s log	perform all duties of the AMR Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs
As Upper Oiler monitor the operation of the ship’s service and control air compressors and other machinery located in the Upper Engine room monitor the operation of the steering gear record operating conditions on the Upper Oiler’s log	perform all duties of the Upper Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs
As Evaporator Oiler monitor the operation of the water-making equipment including: the Aqua-Chem flash Evaporators, the Nyrex Jacket water evaporator, and the Reverse Osmosis watermaker monitor the level in the potable water tanks change over potable and distilled tank suction and discharge valves as required test distillate chemical salinity record operating conditions on the Evaporator Oiler’s log	perform duties for Evaporator Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs ensure that potable and distilled water tanks do not overflow
As Fireman monitor the main propulsion boilers maintain the fires, boiler water levels, and steam pressures assist in the operation of the soot blower assist in preparing a main-propulsion boiler for light-off, light-off, raising steam and cutting-in a boiler, when possible. record operating conditions on the Fireman’s log	perform all duties of the Port or Starboard Fireman described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make legible, complete, and accurate logs maintain boiler water level and steam pressures with safe and appropriate limits
As Refrigeration Oiler monitor the operation of the ship’s refrigeration and air conditioning equipment record operating conditions on the Refrigeration Oiler’s log	perform all duties of the Refrigeration/AC Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs
As Plant Oiler monitor the lubrication of all engine room machinery add clean oil as required record operating conditions on the Plant Oiler’s log	perform all duties of the Plant Oiler described in the Engineering Watchstanding Manual make thorough rounds make legible, complete, and accurate logs
For each of the above positions, relieve and hand over the watch in accordance with good engineering practice	complete all routine duties before handing over the watch discuss current plant conditions such as those listed below before exchanging the watch operational status of the plant unusual alarms or conditions occurring during previous watch standing orders maintenance performed during previous watch on-going repairs affecting plant operations outstanding safety conditions seek clarification from the off-going watch before taking over the watch, if this information was not clearly understood

Location

Assessed in EN‑2231 Sea Term II: Marine Engineering.
