BIMCO and RINA propose method to calculate energy efficiency of existing ships

10 March 2021

BIMCO and the Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA) have identified a need for – and therefore proposed - an alternative method to determine an accurate reference speed in connection with a carbon reduction framework currently under development by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The aim is to secure that older ships also can obtain a reliable energy efficient design index (for existing ships), even if the original sea trial data from when the ship was delivered, is lost.

BIMCO: EU ship recycling regime improved but gaps remain

Ballast water management regulatory overview and considerations

03 January 2017

The IMO BWM Convention enters into force on 8 September 2017 and shipowners, crews and shore side stakeholders - sooner rather than later - should start planning and implementing the required procedures for the safe and compliant handling of ballast water.

Industry publishes improved cyber guidelines

07 December 2018

The third edition of the industry cyber risk management guidelines, Guidelines on Cyber Security Onboard Ships, addresses the requirement to incorporate cyber risks in the ship’s safety management system (SMS). It also reflects a deeper experience with risk assessments of operational technology (OT) - such as navigational systems and engine controls - and provides more guidance for dealing with the cyber risks to the ship arising from parties in the supply chain.

Underwater radiated noise from ships - IMO guidelines revised

02 February 2023

Focus on underwater radiated noise from shipping has grown significantly over the past few years. Consequently, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has decided to raise awareness of the subject by issuing updated non-mandatory guidelines with the aim of monitoring the impact and thus ascertaining the efficacy of various mitigation solutions.
