Standardisation and Certification Sample Clauses

Standardisation and Certification. 1. The Parties agree to cooperate more closely in the field of standardisation, certification and quality assurance to remove unnecessary technical barriers and to reduce differences between them in those areas, so as to facilitate trade. In this context, they reaffirm their commitment under the Agreement on Technical Barriers to trade, annexed to the WTO Agreement (TBT Agreement). 2. Cooperation in standardisation and certification shall aim at promoting compatible systems between the Parties and in particular include: – measures, in accordance with the TBT Agreement, to promote greater use of international technical regulations, standards and conformity assessment procedures, including sector specific measures, in accordance with the level of economic development of ACP countries, – cooperation in the area of quality management and assurance in selected sectors of importance to the ACP States, – support for capacity building initiatives in the ACP countries in the fields of conformity assessment, metrology and standardisation, – developing functioning links between ACP and European standardisation, conformity assessment and certification institutions. 3. The Parties undertake to consider, in due course, negotiating mutual recognition agreements in sectors of mutual economic interest.

Standardisation and Certification. Closer cooperation shall be pursued in the field of standardisation, certification and quality assurance to remove unnecessary technical barriers and to reduce differences in those areas, so as to facilitate trade.
Sample 1
Standardisation and Certification. Given its power range and maritime applicability, the certified gas-electric power source discussed above can be seen as a standard and is technically applicable to a diverse range of inland vessels. The certified LNG fuel tank and its corresponding equipment is relatively less ‘standardised’. As discussed in chapter 4 there a couple of standard locations available for the placement of the tank and its corresponding equipment. The final location and the exact characteristics will predominantly depend on the type of vessel and the preferences of the ship owner, based on its business model (e.g. operations on intensive trajectories may require relatively large fuel tank capacity). The same reasoning also applies for the engine room. As discussed in chapter 3, the characteristics of the engine room depends very much on the engine and the type of vessel. Having one standard engine room is therefore not possible. Consequently, having one standard for the total LNG-electric installation consisting of gas generator set, LNG fuel tank, TCS, bunker station and heating media skit and other minor components is not possible. About 80% of the propulsion system can be built-up out of standard modules; the remaining 20% is vessel specific. The final certification, i.e. the approval of classification society, of the total configuration in the vessel therefore always follows after the vessel deployment and successful trials. However, regarding standardisation, as stated in chapter 5 the design activities can be standardised to a large extent.
Sample 1
Standardisation and Certification. The DF engine configuration on board of the ‘Somtrans LNG’ can be seen as a standard and is applicable to a large range of inland motor tank vessels. As explained in previous chapters, some aspects will be vessel specific, but the installed configuration in the ‘Somtrans LNG’ is to a large extent standard. The class certification will be provided after the whole classification process is completed by successful sea trials/testing phase of the vessel.
Sample 1
Standardisation and Certification. The dual fuel vessel configuration as installed on vessel Werkendam can be seen as a standard configuration for IWT vessels. Furthermore, use of multiple mono-fuel gas generatorsets allows for scalable power supply, enhancing optimised generator loads and hence lowest fuel consumption, as well as optimised engine running hours. Scalability also contributes to suitability for a wide variety of propulsion applications. Use of an electric crane or other large electric consumer operating with the same installed gas fuelled generator sets as used for propulsion is an additional advantage. Basic functionality for a single ESD engine room design can also be determined as standard, in line with the applicable rules. The conventional standard diesel generator is available as a redundant source of power. The LNG tank can be considered as a standard as well, though the amount of installed gas generator sets as well as the required operational range determine the capacity and dimensions. Certification is rather standard as well. Type approvals of gas engines and other equipment can be re-used to a certain extent, depending on the class society. Though, the class society always needs to assess the power system as a whole for redundancy, both during plan approval as well as during seatrials. The assessment is always project specific.
