The International Marine Contractors Association
(IMCA) is the international trade association
representing offshore, marine and underwater
engineering companies.
IMCA promotes improvements in quality, health,
safety, environmental and technical standards through
the publication of information notes, codes of practice
and by other appropriate means.
Members are self-regulating through the adoption of
IMCA guidelines as appropriate. They commit to act
as responsible members by following relevant
guidelines and being willing to be audited against
compliance with them by their clients.
There are two core activities that relate to all
members:
¨
Safety, Environment & Legislation
Training, Certification & Personnel Competence
¨
The Association is organised through four distinct
divisions, each covering a specific area of membersÓ
interests: Diving, Marine, Offshore Survey, Remote
Systems & ROV.
There are also four regional sections which facilitate
work on issues affecting members in their local
geographic area Î Americas Deepwater, Asia-Pacific,
Europe & Africa and Middle East & India.

This document has been developed for IMCA under
the direction of its Marine Division Management
Committee.
It has been referenced as an industry standard by IMO
and, if revised, the Maritime Safety Committee must
be informed.

Executive Summary
This guideline reflects the recognised industry standard for the training, competence and
experience required of all key DP personnel on dynamically positioned (DP) vessels.
In June 1996, the Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) of the International Maritime
Organization (IMO) issued circular MSC/Circ.738 which noted that IMCA had prepared a
publication on the ÑTraining and Experience of Key DP PersonnelÒ and invited member
governments to bring that publication to the attention of the bodies concerned and apply
them to the training of key DP personnel.
A reference to the publication was also made in the 1989 MODU Code. The committee
invited IMCA to keep IMO informed of future amendments to the IMCA guidelines as
appropriate. This amended version will therefore be submitted to the MSC.
The document was revised by an IMCA workgroup during 2005 to reflect current best
practice and to bring its format into line with present IMCA documentation. This has led to
some reorganisation and some renumbering of sections.
The guidelines are designed for vessels engaged in operations where loss of position could
cause one or more of the following: loss of life, severe pollution, major damage and
economic loss.
The formal training courses to be attended by DP operators are defined in content,
verification and approval. The practical experience and certification requirements are also
defined. Training for watchkeeping marine engineers and electronic maintenance staff
(EMS) is specified. The training can be performed either at an approved training centre or
onboard a vessel, provided the training is equivalent.
In addition, guidance is given on a structured familiarisation procedure for key DP personnel
joining a DP vessel or commencing a new project.
The principles and practices for refresher training are provided as are the requirements for
operators wishing to submit experience in lieu of formal training.
In general all formal training should be assessed and all training approved, so that a common
standard exists internationally.
This document provides very useful guidance for competence assurance and assessment
requirements in the industry. Its benefits can be increased if it is used in combination with
IMCA C 002 Ï Competence assurance and assessment: Guidance document and
competence tables Ï Marine Division .
Glossary of Terms and Abbreviations
Approved DP training course A training course given approval by a recognised body such as
the Nautical Institute (NI) or Norwegian Maritime Directorate
(NMD)
Assessor
A person capable of training a new employee in all facets of
setup and operation of all DP equipment, including basic
problem identification and mitigation. For example, a person
described as an assessor with respect to DGPS equipment will
be able to teach and assess personnel in how to select
differential correction stations, adjust an elevation mask and
understand operational theory sufficiently to verify adequate
performance of satellite and equipment and disable noisy
satellites and correction signals as required. Both marine and
technical staff would require comparable skills. Note that
