As adopted at the General Meeting in Athens, May 2019
The BIMCO Shipping KPI System is a global shipping industry tool for defining, measuring and reporting information on operational performance.
The IMO 2020 global sulphur limit for marine fuel oil has now been in force for over one month. BIMCO, ICS, INTERCARGO and INTERTANKO are calling on fleet- and vessel managers, as well as technical superintendents, to share their insight and experiences with the new IMO 2020 compliant fuels.
BIMCO, Intercargo, Intertanko and International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) have set up a working group with the aim to analyse incidents and accidents involving anchoring systems and thereby ultimately increase the safety and integrity of anchoring. To reach the goal, the group is seeking input from members to help report incidents.
BIMCO, ICS and other industry partners have teamed up and presented the IMO with a list of recommendations for governments and relevant national authorities on the facilitation of maritime trade during the COVID-19 pandemic.
