General guidance for Prevention of Air Pollution by Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Emissions

It applies to diesel engines over 130kW, built (or modified) after 1 January 2000. The main requirement is to record in the "Engine Parameter Record Book" (Records of Overhaul), any change or adjustment of NOx critical component or settings of the diesel engine. Such modifications may include changes to fuel injection timing, fuel injection equipment, the charge/ scavenge air systems or combustion chamber profile.

The Diesel engine component's ID number is subject to inspection by authorities to confirm compliance, including if necessary, an open-up inspection. Vessels are required to keep the Technical Files for each such engine.
