PILOTAGE

GENERAL

1 The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) Act 1996, Section 60, provides that:

(a) Every vessel while navigating in any pilotage district or part thereof shall be under
pilotage and the owner, agent or master of the vessel shall comply with that
requirement;
(b) A vessel while been moved within any area of the port which is or forms part of a
pilotage district shall be deemed to be a vessel navigating in a pilotage district;
(c) The Authority (MPA) may, if it appears to the Authority to be necessary, exempt any
vessel or class of vessels while navigating in any pilotage district from being under
pilotage subject to such conditions as it may think fit to impose.

2 The MPA may, if it considers it expedient, authorize any person to pilot vessels in a pilotage
district subject to such conditions as it thinks fit.

3 This directive sets out the vessels or class of vessels which are to be under compulsory
pilotage and those which are exempted or in respect of which exemptions may be sought.

4 This directive shall not apply to or in relation to vessels belonging to or operated by the
Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, Singapore Police Coast Guard, Immigration and
Checkpoints Authority of Singapore and the Singapore Armed Forces.

DEFINITIONS

5 ‘PILOTAGE DISTRICT’. The Pilotage District is described in the Maritime and Port Authority
of Singapore (Pilotage District) Notification 1997 and is divided into three areas viz, “A”, “B”
and “D”. These areas are defined in Annex I and depicted in Annex II.
6 ‘HEIGHT’. The dheight of a vessel referred to in this circular is the height of the vessel
measured vertically from the waterline of the vessel to the highest point of the vessel
including cargo, structures or equipment on board. If there are extendible structures on board,
the highest point shall be the maximum height attainable by these structures when fully
extended, if such extended height exceeds the height of its cargo, or fixed structures or
equipment.

COMPULSORY PILOTAGE FOR VESSELS CARRYING LIQUEFIED GAS OR CHEMICALS

7 Compulsory pilotage applies to all liquefied gas carriers and chemical carriers. For the
purpose of compulsory pilotage, a chemical carrier means any vessel which is carrying or has
previously carried as a whole or part of the last cargo in bulk any of those dangerous chemicals
listed in Chapter 17 of International Maritime Organisation’s (IMO) International Code for the
Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk (IBC Code). A
vessel shall remain to be considered a chemical carrier so long as any of her cargo tanks or
cargo system are not completely cleared and removed of any such residual cargo.
8 In addition to liquefied gas carriers and chemical carriers, other vessels to which compulsory
pilotage applies, when moving within a particular area of the Pilotage District, are as
indicated in Table I.

PASSAGE PLAN AND PILOTAGE GUIDELINES TO SHIPMASTERS

1 The passage plan enhances safety of navigation by enabling the vessel’s bridge
team to effectively plan for the vessel’s passage in the port. This ensures that the
shipmaster and the bridge team have sufficient time and appropriate information to
play a more active role when the vessel is being piloted.

2 All ship owners, ship managers, agents and persons-in-charge of vessels that have
to be piloted are advised to send the appropriate passage plan to the shipmasters
prior to the vessels' arrival and departure.

3 The pilotage service provider PSA Marine Pte Ltd (PSAM) provides plans of the
pilot’s intended passage on their website at:

VERTICAL AND SAFE OVERHEAD CLEARANCES UNDER


BRIDGES AND AERIAL CABLEWAY

1 The vertical and safe overhead clearances above Mean High Water Spring (MHWS) of bridges
and aerial cableway in Port Waters are listed in Appendix I.

2 Pursuant to Section 43 (c) of the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore Act (Chapter 170A),
the Port Master hereby directs that vessels whose *height exceeds the safe overhead clearance
are not to pass under the bridge. Mariners are advised to ascertain the *height of their vessels
accurately before passing under the bridge. They are also to exercise extreme caution when
navigating under the bridge.

3 The safe overhead clearance as defined by the “Chart Specifications of the IHO and
Regulations of the International Hydrographic Organisation (IHO) for International (INT) Charts”
is the physical clearance of the bridge above MHWS minus a safety margin.

4 The following Port Marine Circulars are cancelled:

(a) Nos. 89, 93, 95, and 118 of 1985;


(b) No. 4 of 1993; and
(c) No. 3 of 1997
(d) No. 16 of 1998

* Refers to the height declared by the vessel, measured vertically from the water-line to the
highest point of the vessel including its cargo, structure or equipment on board. If there are
extendible structures on board, the highest point shall be the maximum height attainable by
these structures when fully extended, if such extended height exceeds the height of its cargo or
fixed structures or equipment. This height must be verifiable with the appropriate plans or
documents carried on board the vessel.
