    ISSN 1105-9303 17 November 2017 Vol. 18 / No. 43 SHIPPING WILL STAY AFLOAT IN GREEN TSUNAMI, BUT IT WILL BE COSTLY The shipping industry is 'green' and is striving to become 'greener' which is certainly costing a lot of 'Green backs'. So said Intertanko's technical director Dragos Rauta, addressing the Greener Shipping Summit 2017, in Athens this week. Though the industry is "facing a big green tsunami", Rauta said "shipping is resilient" but it is up to the industry to ensure the "regulations being imposed upon it are practical and will do their job". While the industry's regulator, the Imo, seems to have won something of a victory with the Euro- pean Parliament and European Union agreeing to revise the EU's Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) to exclude shipping and allow Imo's CO 2 reduction strategy to proceed, ship operators have to be more proactive in putting their view, if regulations "are to be more realistic and holistic" it was stressed at the summit, with it being suggested Greek shipping could do more in this respect. Indeed, many saw the EU's decision as a way of putting pressure on Imo. Rauta, Dimitrios Kostaras, gm, Pantheon Tankers Management, Bureau Veritas' vp technology and business development, John Kokarakis and Panos Zachariadis, technical director, Atlantic Bulk Carriers and regular member of Greece's Imo delegation, all saw the decision as warning Imo to take action or else. Whether this is the case or not, shipping is faced with challenges as the regulations continue to come. As summit chairman, Kostaras stressed: "There is great uncertainty about what is required and what will be achieved.

    ISSN 1105-9303 21 October 2016 Vol. 17 / No. 39 GREECE'S MARTECMA WORKS WITH MARSHALL ISLANDS ON BWM CONCERNS Greek shipping's technical managers and the Marshall Islands registry have expressed concerns about the Ballast Water Management Convention and are to coordinate their approach on the BWMC and at Imo's Environment Protection Committee's (MEPC's) 70th Session in London, October 24 - 28. Further, as stressed during a meeting, October 18, in Athens, with Greece's marine technical managers (Martecma), the registry intends to use feedback from the managers as well as exchange views with them. Though the Marshall Islands has ratified the BWMC, it recognises the difficulties and possible complications caused by its introduction, believing the harmonisation of all processes is required for its smooth and safe implementation. Martecma has called for the BWMC schedule for existing vessels to be pushed back by five years, with the fast growing Marshall Islands registry also supporting a trial period of similar duration to allow ships to comply. Liberia has in effect asked for a 10-year cushion period. Indeed, inter-national industry bodies are seeking a five-year period to begin only when a sufficient number of approved systems become available. Marshall Islands supports proposals for bringing revised Guidelines for Approval of Ballast Water Management Systems (G8) in line with the US Environmental Technology Verification (ETV), so a system approved for the USCG can be approved for the BWMC, and vice-versa. It will not object to early renewal of the International Oil Pollution Prevention (IOPP) Certificate, and notes this can be a method of allowing time for harmonising of the revised G8 Guidelines and US ETV.

    ISSN 1105-9303 22 July 2016 Vol. 17 / No. 29 CRUISE COMPANIES REJIG PROGRAMMES IN THE WAKE OF TURKISH COUP While the failed coup by Turkish army officers seems to have had little impact on shipping generally, it has left a mark on the cruising sector with Eastern Mediterranean cruise programmes having to be rejigged, as operators dropped calls at Turkish ports. However, while Greece may enjoy the short-term benefits from cruise booking cancellations in Turkey, in the long term it stands to lose from the unrest in the neighboring country, says the Union of Greek Cruise Ship Owners and Associated Members (EEKFN). It says cruise operators are already considering changing their routes away from the Eastern Mediterranean, so if this trend was to grow, the negative impact on Greece would be significant, said EEKFN as cruise trips usually combine the two countries. Theodore Kontes, EEKFN president, said the drama caused by the attempted coup once again underlined the problems of cruising in what many believe to be the most attractive cruise market in the world. He said the association is to meet with officials from the Foreign and Migration Policy ministries, July 22, to discuss the issue of Turkish visas, "a very important issue for the cruise sector". Turkey's president Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared a state of emergency for three months after some 300 people were killed during the coup attempt. Since July 16 more than 50,000 state em- ployees have been rounded up, sacked or suspended, including 99 top military officers. RCCL, Carnival, Celebrity and Celestyal Cruises were among those with ships heading for Turkey when news broke of an army faction's bid to oust Erdogan.
