Remarks:

Vessel characteristics are specified as follows:

BALAST: The vessel is ballasted as described by this attribute.
CAT- attributes: The vessel or cargo matches the attribute value (for multi-valued attributes, matches at least one of the values).
ICECAP, UKCLRN, PRFMNC attributes: The vessel matches the specified requirement.
VSLCAR: The vessel’s size or capacity is according to the given values.

Absent attributes or null values are ignored.

LOGCON states whether “all” or “at least one” of the specifications must be met.

LIMTYP indicates the relationship between matching vessels and the associated information object or feature.

Example:

to be revised

LOA_LO=50.0, CATVSL=3 (tanker), LOGCON=1 (and), LIMTYP=2 (required); associated to a PILBOP object: tankers with LOA > 50.0 m must use the PILBOP

LOA_LO=50.0, LOA_HI=90.0, CATDHC=19, LOGCON=1 (and), LIMTYP=10 (included); associated with a REGLTS: the regulation applies to vessels with LOA between 50.0 and 90.0 m. carrying MARPOL Class 8 corrosive substances.

PRFMNC="Vessels with thrusters", LIMTYP=11; associated to a REGLTS object: Vessels with thrusters are exempted from the regulation.
