ARAMCO EVALUATION OF MASTERS AND CHIEF OFFICERS

Dear Seafarers,

Syukur Alhamdulillah, akhirnya saya sudah bisa merampungkan kumpulan soal-jawab “ARAMCO EVALUATION”. Saya menyusun tulisan ini per-section sebagaimana yg terdapat dlm ARAMCO MIM (Marine Instruction Manual).
Sengaja saya menyusun tulisan ini karena banyaknya teman2 yg bertanya kepada saya bagaimana sich ARAMCO EXAM itu, apa saja yg ditanyakan dan apa saja yg harus disiapkan.
Disamping itu saya berharap agar semakin banyak pelaut-pelaut Indonesia bisa bergabung di SAUDI ARAMCO, dengan demikian walaupun kita bekerja jauh dinegeri orang maka terasa seperti di Negara sendiri dan tidak mengalami kendala yang berarti dalam proses familirisasi dikapal, pun begitu seorang pelaut haruslah siap secara physic dan mental untuk berhadapan dengan berbagai macam orang yang memiliki bahasa, karakteristik, sifat, kulit dan perilaku yang berbeda-beda sesuai asal negaranya masing2.
“Dimana bumi dipijak disitulah langit dijunjung” itulah peribahasanya.

Offshore shipping company under charter ARAMCO menawarkan gaji yang bersaing bagi para pelaut dan kita harus pandai-pandai dalam memilih perusahaan sebelum bergabung, disinilah pentingnya silaturahmi yg baik sesama pelaut guna mendapatkan informasi yg akurat. Akan tetapi ARAMCO juga melakukan serangkain ujian (examination) untuk semua Newly joining Masters and Chief Mates dikapal yang mereka kontrak.
Dari Marlin test sampai ARAMCO Practical evaluation. Minimum score Marlin test untuk Master & Chief Officer adalah 70% per section dan Overall score adalah 80%, Officers yang gagal disini akan segera dipulangkan ke Negara asal dan bagi lolos akan menjalani minimum 2 minggu (14 hari) familirisasi diatas kapal. Setelah proses 14 hari familirisasi ini selesai, Port Captain dari perusahaan pelaut itu bekerja akan mengececk kesiapan Officer yang bersangkutan dalam mengahadapi ARAMCO evaluation dan selanjutnya officers tersebut akan segera menjalani ARAMCO Evaluation. Jika officers tersebut dinyatakan “PASS” oleh ARAMCO Evaluator maka akan segera menjabat sebagai Master/Chief Mate dikapal yg ditentukan oleh perusahaan, akan tetapi jika dinyatakan “FAIL”  maka tidak ada pilihan bagi perusahaan tempat anda bekerja kecuali harus memulangkanya ke Negara asal.

Untuk Marlin test, anda bisa langsung berkunjung ke: www.marlintest.com. Disini ada banyak pilihan mulai dari “Need to take a test” (Bagi yg punya Credit card) ataupun cuma “Practice a test”, ada baiknya anda masuk ke Practice a test dulu sebelum melakukan test yg sebenarnya.

Sedangkan untuk “ARAMCO EXAM”, berikut adalah kumpulan pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang merupakan guidance dan besar kemungkinan diantaranya akan ditanyakan oleh ARAMCO Evaluator (Bisa dikatakan 95% pertanyaanya berkisar disini-sini saja). Dan tidak semua kumpulan soal ini akan ditanyakan oleh evaluator, mungkin hanya 15 atau bahkan kurang dari itu, tergantung kelancaran anda menjawab, semakin anda lancar menjawab biasanya evaluator akan puas dengan kemampuan anda dan tidak akan banyak pertanyaan setelah itu, pun sebaliknya jika anda gugup maka anda akan dicecar dg pertanyaan yg banyak. Jadi “Self confidence” akan menjadi kesan pertama yg akan banyak membantu kelulusan anda dimata evaluator. Sengaja tidak saya terjemahkan dalam bahasa Indonesia karena memang ujian akan dilakukan dalam bahasa inggris.
Selain daripada itu, soal Tanya-jawab  dibawah ini juga bisa dijadikan referensi bagi rekan2 pelaut yang ingin menambah wawasan.
Semoga bermanfaat “GOOD LUCK AND HAVE A SAFE VOYAGE”

G. SAUDI ARAMCO TIDE TABLES

1.    Definitions of ARAMCO Tide Tables:
·      LAT = Lowest Astronomical Tide
·      HAT = Highest Astronomical Tide
·      ISLW = Indian Spring Low Water
·      MSL = Mean Sea Level
2.    Explanation of Spring Tides, Neap tides, Ebb Tides and Flood Tides?
·      Spring Tides = Maximum range tides about every 14 days during the full moon or new moon (At about 2 knots stronger current in open waters)
·      Neap Tides = Minimum Range tides occur at quarter phases of the moon (Weaker current)
·      Ebb Tides = When water is decreasing from high to low
·      Flood Tides = When water is increasing from low to high
3.    Familiarity with ARAMCO Tide tables, interpolation and terminology?
·      Semi Diurnal = The Tide have two low tides and Two high tides each day. The fully “SEMI DIURNAL” pattern is found in area bear Abu Sa’fah.
·      Diurnal = The Tides only have one signal high tide and one signal low tide each day as shown by the fully “DIURNAL” pattern at Marjan and Zuluf
·      Mixed = The Tides are an intermediate condition in which inequalities exist between successive high or low tides and proceed from mixed mainly “Semi Diurnal” South of Manifa to mixed mainly “Diurnal” from Manifa North to Safania
·      Ebb tide current north of Juáymah set to “Southeast” and Flood Tide current set to “Northwest”. However from Ras tanura south into the bay of salwah, the reverse pattern is evidence.
4.    In Aramco Tide table there are three formats for each Station (Familiarize yourself how to use for each format).
·      Tide graphs are used to determine the overall pattern for the period desired.
·      High / Low Tide calendar = Height and time of the Highest and lowest water only.
·      Hourly prediction = Particulars time and level.
5.    Do you know how to use Aramco Tide table?
Practical question, practice it to calculate under keel clearance using Aramco tide table.
6.    Echo sounder is showing 12 M depth under keel, your draft is 3.5 m .What is the depth over whole in feet?
Depth over whole = 12 + 3.5= 15.5m /// In feet = 15.5 x 3.28 = 50.84 feet.
7.    What is the minimum Under Keel Clearance (UKC) allowed for Vessel under charter ARAMCO?
·      Minimum UKC for Crossing over pipeline/subsea installation = 5 M or more
·      Minimum UKC Over the seabed other than crossing over pipeline = 1 M or more
·      Minimum UKC A/Side at Piers/Port/Facility = 0.3 M
8.    What is the meaning of UKC
UKC = Under Keel Clearance is a distance measured vertically from the lowest of a vessel (Keel) to the closest underwater (seabed, pipeline, structure, etc)
9.    Charted depth 3.7 M, Draft 3.2 M, Height of tide 1.6 M. What is the Under keel clearance? Is it allowed to pass a pipe line at this clearance?
Total Depth = Charted depth + High Tide = 3.7 M + 1.6 M = 5.3 M
UKC = Total Depth - Draft = 5.3 M - 3.2 M = 2.1 M
Allowing 1 M for pipe line height then clearance = 1.1 M (Not allowed to cross pipeline)
10. If you are obligated to pass pipe line less than 5 meters, what you will do?
I will call the Port control and Field service to get permission and I will reduce my speed (slow speed) to avoid Squat.
11. What is the meaning of Squat?
The increase of draft due to high speed in shallow waters,
F Max = 2 x Cb x V² / 100 (Cb = 0.70, V = Speed in knots). Refer to brown nautical almanac page 625 – 626
To reduce effect of the squat, you must reduce your speed and minimum UKC at least 0.3 M on the soft seabed ground and 0.4 M on the hard seabed grounds.
12. The Examiner (RMM) should require Master/Mates to plotting course on the chart from one place to another place. In this case, just remember about minimum UKC crossing over pipelines is 5 Meters. You may be so long around but ensure your plotting course have clearance 5 Meters.
Remember: UKC = (Charted Depth + Predicted tide) – Present Draft = Minimum 5 Meters during cross over pipeline!!!

H. COMPASS ERROR CALCULATION

1.    What are the methods to calculate compass error?
·      Transit Bearing with two objects
·      Transiting channel using leading light
·      Astronomical calculation / Sun bearing
·      When vessel Alongside at Jetty (Compare true heading on chart with magnetic heading)
2.    Where you get the compass deviation from. And where you get the variation from?
We get Deviation from compass deviation Card. And variation from the Chart on the compass rose.
3.    You are Alongside at Tanajib berth No. 4, and you need to calculate compass error, what you will do? (Port side alongside)
Check on the chart Tanajib berth is 270 deg (True heading). Read the compass directly and see how much it shows and compare it with the True heading on chart (270⁰), The differences between True heading on the chart and your compass heading is a Compass error
4.    The variation is 3.0 East and Deviation is 4.5 West what is the compass error?
Compass error = Variation + Deviation = 3.0 + (- 4.5) = - 1.5 = 1.5 W
5.    Magnetic compass reading is 245⁰ and variation = 2.5 West and Deviation=1.5 West. What is the true course?
Compass error = Variation + Deviation = 2.5 W + 1.5 W = 4 West
True course = Magnetic Course + Compass Error = 245 + (– 4) = 241⁰ ( Error west compass best)
6.    Calculate compass error by Sun, Explain how you do it?

I. CURRENT SET AND DRIFT CALCULATION

1.    There are several methodologies to calculate set and drift and plotting an estimated position.
You may refer to Brown’s Nautical Almanac page 334 – 335 for more details. With the below formula:
b² = a² + c² - 2.a.c Cosβ
Angle of inclination = True course – Current set
Ratio = Speed current : Ship’s speed
Explanation:
a    = Rate (Speed current)
c     = Ship’s speed (True course)
b    = Speed over ground (Course over ground)
β    = 180 – Angle of inclination

Example:
Find a course over the ground if a vessel speed 20 knots, steers 270 T (True course), set by a current 200 T, Rate 5 knots?
Answer:
Ratio = Rate : Ship’s speed = 5 : 20 = 0.25
Angle of inclination = 270⁰ – 200⁰ = 070⁰
·      Entering the table with 0.25 as Ratio and 70⁰ as Angle of inclination between current (set) and true course, we found 12.2⁰, which applied in a southerly direction, the same direction as the set of the current, so that Course over the ground = 270⁰ - 12.2⁰ = 257.8⁰
·      β = 180⁰ - Angle of inclination = 180⁰ - 70⁰ = 110⁰
  = a² + c² - 2.a.c Cosβ
       = 5² + 20² - 2 . 5 . 20 Cos 110⁰
       = 25 + 400 – 200 (- 0.342)
       = 425 – ( - 68.4) = 493.4
b    = √493.4 = 22.2 Knots
Speed over the ground = 22.2 Knots
2.    How do you ascertain wind and tide effect on the Vessel at the location before approaching offshore installation.
·      I will stop Main engine and check the vessel movement on the Radar or GPS
·      Compare between Course steers (True) and Speed over the ground on the GPS or Radar
3.    What is the meaning of Course made good?
It is the actual course steered by the vessel under the influence of current Wind and swell.
4.    Your vessel true course is 175 and course made good is 160, what is the required course to steer to maintain your true course?
Effect of the current, wind and swell = 175 – 160 = 15.
Course to steer = 175 + 15 = 190
I have to set the course to 190 so my true course will remain 175.

J. KNOWLEDGE OF SAFETY EQUIPMENT

1.    What is SART? How it works and appear on Radar?
SART = Search And Rescue Radar Transponder, It works and appear on X band Radar only (3 cm) Radar. It appears as 12 Dots on the Radar screen. The closest dot to the Radar screen centre is the position of the SART(Survival Craft), once the vessel coming close the SART the 12 Dots will appear as Arch on the RADAR screen.
2.    What is EPIRB?

N. OTHER QUESTIONS
1.    Your vessel at Tanajib port, and you received a call from drilling to go for Rig Move in shallow water, which requires a draft of 3.2 even keel. What will you do and act. If your vessel have the following particulars Light ship 1100 t, drill water 220 t, fresh water 150 t, Fuel oil diesel 150 t, ballast water 220 t and approximately 60 tons Barite. Main Draft 3.7 m?
Check from stability criteria, your minimum operational towing draft.
Now Calculate Total displacement = 1100 + 200 + 150 + 150 + 220 + 60 = 1880 Tonnes
From stability booklet get the TPC at that displacement and draft (let us say TPC = 10.5 T)
Present draft – Required draft  = 3.7 M - 3.2 M = 0.5 M = 50 cm.
Total Weights to be discharged = 50 X 10.5 = 525 T
Now you can discharge accordingly, from any liquids and discuss your plan with Drilling department. So he can give assistance in discharging liquids and barite if needed.
2.    What is the meaning of fresh water allowance?
Change of draft (increase or decrease) due to change in water density,
3.    What is the meaning of TPC?
Ton Per Centimetre = Weight in Tons to be loaded or discharged  to change vessel draft by 1 cm.
4.    What is the meaning of permissible load on deck?
Means how many tons the ship deck can load on one square meter. You can get it From Cargo securing manual Or vessel stability booklet.
5.    A box weighing 48 tons and dimensions: length 4 m-, width 3 m, height 5 m. Can you load it on deck if you know that permissible load is 4.5 tons?
Area = length X width = 4 x 3 = 12 square meter .
Weight / area - 48/12= 4 Ton . Answer YES I can load it.
6.    What is the density of Fresh water ?
Answer: 1.000
7.    What is the density of sea water?
Answer: 1.025
8.    If the TPC = 12 Tons what is the change in draft if you load a 56 ton weight.
Change of draft = weight / TPC  = 56/12 = 4.5 cm. bodily sink.
9.    Explain how you connect the towing wire to the bridle wire of the Rig?
·      Towing pins up
·      Pull the towing wire and lay it on deck with the socket close to the karm fork (shark jaw) using the tugger winch wire and connect it with the Stretcher using shackle 85 T
·      Put the tugger wire between the towing pins.
·      Get one long hook to collect the bridle wire of the rig and connect it to the tugger wire and start heaving up the Bridle Rig wire until it comes over the Sharkjaw .
·      Up the Sharkjaw with the Bridle Rig wire socket in the groove and lock it , then release tugger wire.
·      Connect the Stretcher socket to the Bridle Rig wire using 85 ton shackle and make sure that it is tight and locked by a split pin.
·      Sharkjaw down and start moving ahead slowly, Pay out the towing wire until you get the required length of tow. Then down the towing pins.
10. What are consisting of the Tow line?
Firstly, I have to know ship’s position, where is she? On Bridle (as Master Tow) or Assist (Port quarter or Starboard quarter)
·      As Bridle or Master Tow, the composition of Tow line are:
Ø Towing wire (Size 57 MM)
Ø Stretcher ( Size 88 MM x 19 M)
Ø Bridle Rig Wire (From the Rig)
All Connection using shackle 85 Tones
·      As assist (Port quarter or starboard quarter)
Ø Towing wire (Size 57 MM)
Ø Stretcher ( Size 88 MM x 19 M)
Ø Fuse wire (Size 42 MM x 20 M)
All Connection using shackle 85 Tones, and Soft eye end of the Fuse wire put on the Rig bollard.
11. What size and length required for towing stretcher and fuse wire?
Stretcher = Diameter 88 MM X Length 19 M to 20 M, double rope with two hard thimble ends.
Fuse wire = Diameter about 36 MM – 42 MM X Length 19 to 20 M, with one hard end and one soft wide end. (Wire Rope)
12. What is the Free Surface effect, how does it affect stability of vessel?
Free surface effect occurs when the Tanks are partially filled with liquid, during ship moving/heel, the liquid starts moving from one side to another side. The movement of the liquid surface inside the tanks will cause the VCG of the liquid to move up (Increase) and thus will reduce in GM .
The Maximum effect of free surface occurs when the tanks are 50% loaded.
To minimize this effect, keep the tanks either full or completely empty.
13. Find The Fresh Water Allowance (FWA) for a vessel of Displacement 1700 T and TPC = 9 T.
FWA = Displacement : 4 TPC = 1700 : 4 (9) = 47.2 mm.
14. A vessel of displacement 1580 t, at main draft 3.2 m, find the change in draft if sailing from sea water to a water of density 1005?
From Stability booklet onboard, obtain the TPC at that displacement, let us say TPC 11 ton.
Change of draft= FWA X (Sea water density – Dock water density) / 25
FWA= displacement/4TPC = 1580/4 x 11 = 35.9 mm.
Change of draft= 35.9 X( 1025-1005) /25 = 35.9 X 0.8 = 28.72 mm = 2.87 cm = 0.0287 (Increase in draft)
New main draft =3.20 + 0.0287 = 3.2287 m.
15. A vessel having FWA = 20 cm and load draft = 3.2 m. To what draft can this vessel load in fresh water?
FW Density = 1000, Seawater Density = 1025,
Change in draft        = FWA X (seawater density – fresh water density) / 25
= 20 X ( 1025 - 1000)/25 = 20 X (25/25) = 20 X 1 =20 cm (increase in draft)
New Draft = 3.2 + 0.20 = 3.40 m.
16. How you know that you have a free surface effect.
By making Tanks sounding.
17. Which operation every day does it with ballast?
Daily sounding of ballast tanks and records in Daily sounding log should be done.
18. A box of weight 80 t. has a loading area of 16 square meters, your vessel deck have permissible load of 4.8 t. Can you load it on deck?
Calculate tons per one square meter = 80/16 = 5 t (more than permissible load)
NO I cannot load it.

O. PRACTICAL MANOEUVRE EVALUATION

All candidates Master and Chief Officers will be examined in their ability to manoeuvre the vessel.
Preparation for practical manoeuvre evaluation:
·      Report to port control before start engine
·      Start Main engine, bow thrusters and steering for manoeuvre (Use arrival/departure checklist)
·      Change over control from forward to aft, once everything ready report to Port control.
·      Cast off the vessel from jetty. The examiner will ask you to turning the vessel inside harbour, change heading (For example: Set heading from 000⁰ to 090⁰), make vessel parallel with jetty, put your stern against jetty and Bring the vessel alongside back to jetty.
·      Special awareness should be taken regarding the actual tide and wind condition.
·      All manoeuvres should be done in safely, positive and with due regard to observance of good seamanship, and not be limited in time.
Do not panic, keep calm, concentrate, feel the vessel movement and use your experience for manoeuvre the vessel.
"Manoeuvre is a science and art".
