The Performance Standard for Protective Coatings (PSPC) in dedicated Seawater ballast tanks came into effect as part of common structural rules in January 2008. From July 2008 it came into force as part of SOLAS, making Ballast Tank Coating Inspection as important as a ship's lifeboat.

The IMO PSPC raises considerable challenges to the industry as the regulation identifies the need for prescriptive processes for:

surface preparation

for coating

inspection regime

data collection & reporting

auditing & assessment

Generating significantly increased levels of data recording and analysis.
