But, in a new report, marine and social scientists are urging a precautionary approach towards these techniques which involve deliberate large-scale manipulation of the environment. The report, published by the Joint Group of Experts on the Scientific Aspects of Marine Environmental Protection (GESAMP), a body that advises the United Nations system on the scientific aspects of marine environmental protection, says that a coordinated framework for proposing and assessing marine geoengineering activities should be developed.

  • Daily Briefing 26 June 2017
    June 26 26 June 2017 23 Jun 2017 News Europe Germany Containers No regrets on Marenave liquidation, says Daus- Petersen by David Olser GERMANY’S Marenave Schiffahrts took a hard-headed decision to go into liquidation, rather than struggle on with debts it had no realistic chance of ever meeting, the industry veteran hired to sort the company out has insisted. Ole Daus-Petersen — the Danish-born former J Lauritzen and Simpson Spence & Young man brought in to replace founder Tobias König in 2013 — spoke to Lloyd’s List ahead of a Daus-Petersen: "There is ample opportunity and planned major announcement know-how to create something anew in Hamburg." about its future, which could come as soon as Monday. In line with regulatory requirements that forbid material disclosures other than to the market as a whole, made via the financial authorities, he emphasised that he was unable to answer questions with regard to Marenave’s future. But speculation in Hamburg shipping circles, which has made it into the German media, is that its fate will be to serve as a shell company to secure a listing for Claus-Peter Offen interests. In any event, the one-time KG house no longer has any ships, after being forced to part with its 13-strong fleet earlier this year, after a deal struck with most of the banks that financed the single-ship companies behind the vessels. The agreement was built on a full release from financial liabilities, and left sufficient cash in the kitty for the company to finance itself as a going concern.

Montoir (France), le 14 March 2008. © Erwan Guéguéniat The 5 LNG tankers were all named after heroes of the Algerian war of independence. The Mostefa Ben Boulaïd, Larbi Ben M'hidi and Bachir Chihani built by Constructions navales et industrielles de la Méditerranée in La Seyne-sur-Mer were scrapped in Turkey in 2017 and 2018 (see "Shipbreaking" # 44, p 31 and # °48, p. 32-33), the Mourad Didouche built in Saint-Nazaire was deflagged, renamed Mourato and beached in Bangladesh in February 2019 (see "Shipbreaking" # 55 p. 41). The Ramdane Abane, the last of the series, is also the last to be scrapped.

    Análise de acidentes e segurança marítima Manuel Luís Canelas Viana de Lemos Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Engenharia Naval e Oceânica Orientador: Professor Doutor Ângelo Manuel Palos Teixeira Júri Presidente: Professor Doutor Carlos Guedes Soares Orientador: Professor Doutor Ângelo Manuel Palos Teixeira Vogal: Doutor Pedro Manuel de Araújo Antão Dezembro de 2019 ii Resumo O objetivo desta dissertação é estudar e compreender os fundamentos teóricos da segurança marítima actual e a sua metodologia de análise. São abordados os aspectos técnicos, humanos e socio- tecnológicos da segurança a partir de visões diferentes desenvolvidas nas últimas décadas. Apresenta- se a evolução dos acidentes a partir da análise de estudos estatísticos e bases de dados de acidentes, elaboradas por várias entidades públicas e privadas, de forma a compreender melhor a complexidade do tema. É também analisada uma amostra de uma centena de “acidentes muito graves” ocorridos em 2017 reportados pela IMO de forma a fundamentar numericamente a incidência de acidentes graves por tamanho de navio. Apresentam-se alguns exemplos de análise e codificação de relatórios de acidentes marítimos (encalhes e colisões) reportados por entidades diferentes usando a metodologia CASMET, que incide na contribuição dos factores humanos e organizacionais nos acidentes. Apresenta-se a metodologia de análise de barreiras e a sua importância para prevenir acidentes ou mitigar as suas consequências e apresenta-se um exemplo de barreiras que funcionaram num relatório de acidente. Por fim, introduz-se o conceito da “Segurança II” proposto como solução para resolver problemas que a segurança “clássica” não resolve. Em particular, apresentam-se muitos dos problemas que os estudos de segurança tradicionais enfrentam, e a abordagem da segurança II a esses problemas.
