ATTACHMENT (B): PRESCRIBED XML FORMAT

Lube oil sample data shall be transmitted to the Government’s designated server site using the format below. This Attachment contains the required data fields used for new and used oil analysis test results and a narrative description in each field, where information is not self-explanatory.

Each equipment registration number element is composed of identifying information for a specific sampling point. The one attribute is the 7 digit PFA number. PFA number is a Government provided equipment registration or unit identification number. The PFA number is a combination of vessel registration id (4 digits) and equipment registration id (3 digits). There is one unique PFA number for each sampling point on a vessel.

<REGNUMBER PFA="0300123">

Date of equipment registration. Provide in YYYY-MM-DD format.

<DATEEQUIPREG>2003-10-23</DATEEQUIPREG>

Unique 4 digit ID number of the vessel from which the sample was taken. It is provided on lube oil label on each sample bottle.

<VESSELREGID>0030</VESSELREGID>

The vessel unique 3 digit ID of the sample point from which the samples will be taken. Provided on lube oil label on each sample bottle.

<EQUIPREGID>123</EQUIPREGID>

Government specified name for the sample point from which samples will be taken. Provided on the lube oil label on each sample bottle.

<EQUIPNAME>PORT MAIN ENGINE</EQUIPNAME>

Name of the lubricant that should be in use at the sample point.

Assigned by Government officials. Verified from the lube oil label on each sample bottle.

<PRODNAME>130015W40</PRODNAME>

The company product number of the lubricant that should be in use at the sample point. Assigned by Government officials. Corresponds to the product name.

<PRODID>34567</PRODID>

Government specified test slate assigned to each sample. Verified from the lube oil label on each sample bottle.

<SLATEID>001</SLATEID>

Name of the test slate assigned to each sample. Assigned by Government officials. Verified from the lube oil label on each sample bottle.

<SLATENAME>DIESEL ENGINE SLATE</SLATENAME>

The units of measurement for system capacity of the sample point.

<SYSCAPACITYUNITS>G</SYSCAPACITYUNITS>

The system capacity for the sample point.

<SYSCAPACITY>2000</SYSCAPACITY>

Each complete sample includes information, data and comments grouped inside SampleID tags. The one attribute is a YYMMDD### LabSampleID tag where ### is sequential starting with 001.

<ENGINEHOURS>1234</ENGINEHOURS>

The overall oil rating as determined by the lab analysts.

Two numbers provided. One for oil condition and one for wear metals found. 0 = Normal 1 = Monitor 2 = Abnormal 3= Critical.

<LABASSESSMENT>1,1</LABASSESSMENT>

The 10 character number on lube oil label on the sample bottle. The number has been coded so that it can be used to derive registration and sampling information if other data are smeared on the label.
