19、Classification CHAPTER 1 General Requirements SECTION 1 Classification 1 General This Guide provides the criteria for notations that are intended to increase the level of protection against fires onboard vessels, mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs), mobile offshore units (MOUs) and offshore insta

20、llations as well as the reduction of the consequences should a fire occur through the addition of certain prevention, detection and extinguishment measures. The requirements and notations identified in this Guide are optional for classification. The enhanced fire protection notations EFP-A for accom

21、modation areas and EFP-M for machinery spaces provide criteria for additional fire protection arrangements in accommodation and machinery areas, respectively, of vessels, MODUs, MOUs and offshore installations identified in 1-1/3 below. The enhanced fire protection notation EFP-A+ provides criteria

22、for additional fire protection arrangements beyond the EFP-A notation for the accommodations of MODUs and offshore installations identified in 1-1/3 below. The enhanced fire protection notation EFP-C provides criteria for additional fire protection arrangements in the cargo area of those cargo vesse

23、ls identified in Chapter 4 of this Guide. The enhanced fire protection notation EFP-IA provides criteria for additional fire protection arrangements in the industrial areas of MODUs as well as fixed and floating offshore installations identified in 1-1/3 below. Combinations of the above notations ma

24、y also be granted. For example, where a cargo vessel complies with the requirements in this Guide for the accommodation areas, the machinery spaces and the cargo area, a combined notation of EFP-AMC may be granted. Where a notation identified in this Guide is requested, the requirements herein are i

25、n addition to any and all applicable fire safety and protection requirements in the relevant ABS Rules and Guides as well as those in all applicable national or international regulations. 3 Application 3.1 Vessels i) Self-propelled vessels classed in accordance with the ABS Rules for Building and Cl
