This paper charts the events that have led to the introduction of the IMO Performance Standard for Protective Coatings (IMO PSPC) for dedicated water ballast tanks (WBTs), and discusses the main requirements of this standard. The implications for design are also outlined with a view to identifying how future ship structural designs may be improved with respect to coating performance. The factors that have contributed to the lack of investment in coating process have been identified, with the resulting problems currently faced as result of the lack of investment being outlined. The existing design guidelines provided by ISO standards have been appraised and their applicability to ship designs considered. The aims of the current DISPRO project are set out; these can be summarised as seeking to optimise the structural design of a vessel to meet the needs of the coating process, whilst still satisfying all of the structural strength and operational requirements.
