QMED is an abbreviation for
Qualified Member of the Engineering Department. There are
a number of different "QMED ratings." The most common
for both steam and motor (i.e., diesel propelled) ships is the "Oiler"
rating. Many older steam vessels also require the "Fireman/Watertender"
rating. Tankships require "Pumpman," and vessels
with electrical cargo gear carry one or more crewmembers with an "Electricians"
rating. Additional ratings include "Refrigeration Engineer," "Deck
Engineer," "Machinist," and the "Junior Engineer."
If you obtain all of these ratings you may obtain a rating of "QMED
- All Ratings."
A special QMED rating
was created for diesel powered offshore supply vessels working
in the offshore oil industry and is called Oiler (OSV). It
is only valid on offshore supply vessels and not on vessels such
as diesel ferries. Two additional ratings were created for
modern power plants with varying degrees of automation. These
ratings are the "Engineman" and the "Deck Engine
Mechanic." These two ratings do not require additional
testing after you obtain the required ratings, experience, and training
specified in Coast Guard regulations.
The test required
for any rating is composed of two modules (i.e., parts). The
first module is called "QMED
- General." You must pass
this module before you can take the module for the specific rating
(or ratings) you desire.
