IMO decides that by 2040, the world fleet must have reduced its total GHG emissions by more than 70% compared to 2008.
BIMCO advises on how you could check whether your solid bulk cargo is exempted from having a requirement to have a ship fitted with a fixed gas fire-extinguishing system.
The drafting team tasked with updating BIMCO’s 13 year old SHIPMAN shipmanagement agreement will begin by preparing a free standing clause addressing the shipmanagers’ role in complying with emissions trading systems such as the EU ETS. ETS is seen as a critical issue by shipmanagers who will need to agree with owners how the surrender of emissions allowances for ships trading to the EU after 2024 is to be handled.
BIMCO has submitted a proposal to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to regulate propulsion power of ships in order to sustain the GHG savings already achieved through slower steaming.
Chinese regulators have updated part of its domestic emission control area (DECA) regulations with effect from 1 January 2019 but has not yet placed a full ban on open-loop scrubbers as reported widely.
In a little over a year from now, new legislation from the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will come into force. It aims to reduce CO 2 emissions and will change the way ships are operated. From 1 January 2023, owners and charterers will therefore have to cooperate to comply with the new regulation.
The BIMCO Documentary Committee (DC) will be meeting on 18 May – it will be the first physical meeting since the start of the pandemic. Four important projects are up for adoption: ETSA, the CII Compliance Clause, GENCON 22 and the IOCD Clause for Time Charter Parties.
