The IMO sub-committee on Ship Systems and Equipment (SSE) met in London on 4–8 March 2019. This statutory news summarizes the main topics discussed, such as, life-saving appliances, fire safety of Ro-Ro passenger ships, and on-board lifting appliances. All agreements made at the meeting are subject to final approval by MSC 101 in June 2019.
When the market moves back from a downturn, vessels are leaving the lay-up buoys and the focus shifts from preservation to recommissioning. DNV GL has accumulated its best practices into a revised Recommended Practice (RP) containing a new approach for assurance of non-class equipment and systems during recommissioning.
DNV GL keeps customers and other stakeholders updated on various aspects of the global 2020 sulphur cap and its implications for maritime shipping. While the global cap of 0.5% is just around the corner – entering into force on 1 January 2020 – this PSC news focuses on existing emission control areas (ECAs) with a 0.10% sulphur limit and the role of port state control (PSC) inspections.
The MEPC sub-committee on Pollution Prevention and Response (PPR) met at the IMO in London, 18-22 February 2019. Top of the agenda was the consistent implementation of the 0.50% sulphur limit under MARPOL Annex VI, in force from 1 January 2020. This statutory news contains a summary of topics related to sulphur and the implementation of the 2020 sulphur cap. Items agreed at the meeting are subject to final approval/adoption at MEPC 74 in May 2019.
The EU Ship Recycling Regulation (EU SRR) is coming into general application on 31 December 2018. Additional requirements are imposed to any new EU-flagged vessel and vessels under EU-flag going for recycling. These measures are subject to PSC and flag state inspections effective from 2019. This statutory news provides you with a summary of the EU SRR (1257/2013) and recommendations of how to manage the Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) process.
This statutory news covers vital information from the Chinese Ministry of Transport: introduction of a 0.5% sulphur limit for ships entering China’s coastal waters, and updated NOx regulations for imported ships engaged in domestic trade. Both regulations will enter into force on 1 January 2019.
With three weeks to go before IMO’s fuel data collection system (DCS) starts on 1 January 2019, many companies still have not submitted their SEEMP Part II fuel oil consumption data collection plan for approval. This statutory news contains some last-minute recommendations.
New MARPOL amendments adopted by Resolution MEPC.286(71) include two new emission control areas (ECAs) for NOx, and amend the information to be included in the bunker delivery note (BDN). In addition, a new IMO circular has been issued with guidance for making a ship-specific implementation plan. More in this statutory news.
