Stability

Stability approval has been delegated to selected Classification Societies and Certifying Authorities for some ship types.  Please contact the Stability Unit for guidance.

It is important that the stability submission to the Stability Unit is made at the earliest practicable stage in the new building, conversion, flag-in process.  All stability work should be completed prior to inclining test such that it only remains for the final lightship to be inserted in place of the preliminary estimate to allow full approval.
