The Effects of visual inspection of Air Receivers on the Integrity Management of Tugboats is reported. Key parameters for monitoring fit-for-service of air receivers were identified. Also the essential usage of compressed air in tugboats was noted. Consequence on this, the visual inspection of the air receivers was conducted along the guidelines of statutory requirements. The outcome of the visual inspection was satisfactory and hence the Air Receivers retained the fit-for-service status .
