DIRECTORATE FOR SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND INDUSTRY DIVISION OF TRANSPORT REGULATORY ISSUES IN INTERNATIONAL MARTIME TRANSPORT Contact: Mr. Wolfgang Hübner, Head of the Division of Transport, DSTI, Tel: (33 1) 45 24 91 32 ; Fax: (33 1) 45 24 93 86 ; Internet: [email protected] Or. Eng. Or. Document complet disponible sur OLIS dans son format d’origine Complete document available on OLIS in its original format 1 Summary This report focuses on regulations governing international liner and bulk shipping. Both modes are closely linked to international trade, deriving from it their growth. Also, as a service industry to trade international shipping, which is by far the main mode of international transport of goods, has facilitated international trade and has contributed to its expansion. Total seaborne trade volume was estimated by UNCTAD to have reached 5330 million metric tons in 2000. The report discusses the web of regulatory measures that surround these two segments of the shipping industry, and which have a considerable impact on its performance. As well as reviewing administrative regulations to judge whether they meet their intended objectives efficiently and effectively, the report examines all those aspects of economic regulations that restrict entry, exit, pricing and normal commercial practices, including different forms of business organisation. However, those regulatory elements that cover competition policy as applied to liner shipping will be dealt with in a separate study to be undertaken by the OECD Secretariat Many measures that apply to maritime transport services are not part of a regulatory framework but constitute commercial practices of market operators.

The collected data used for analyses in individual modules are stored in a SQL server of shared access. Vector electronic navigation charts of S-57 standard specification are used as the cartographic background. The width of the waterway is calculated by means of the method developed on the basis of the modified PIANC guidelines. The main goal of the research is to prove and demonstrate that the designed software would directly increase the navigation safety level of the Swinouj´scie–Szczecin´ fairway and indicate the optimal positioning methods in various navigation circumstances.

  • Maritime Orientation Package
    MARITIME ORIENTATION PACKAGE Port Nelson 1 MARITIME ORIENTATION PACKAGE Introduction This ‘Maritime Orientation Package’ will introduce the complex Maritime industry to Health Protection Officers (HPOs) who may have to implement and apply health measures within it. Background New Zealand Public Health Units are designated as ‘competent authorities’ by the World Health Organisation for ensuring maritime Points of Entry (POE) comply with the standards required by the International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR) and the International Maritime Organisation. Most New Zealand Public Health Units have a Maritime POE in their region. The Maritime Environment comprises many unique factors and has its own language rich with acronyms. For a HPO to be competent and feel confident working in the maritime environment they need a basic understanding of: • Vessel Types – their purpose and the possible public health issues associated with them. • The layout of a ship – where to go and what to look for. • Maritime Terminology – communication with the personnel on board and dockside in the lexicon. • The sequence a vessel follows upon entering NZ waters and the ensuing processes; o gaining pratique, o berthing, o discharging and loading cargo, o replenishment of food and water, o refuelling, and o departure for another jurisdiction, and • The suite of documents that ships maintain to show that management practices on board comply with international regulations and requirements. Purpose The purpose of this orientation package is to familiarise HPOs with some background information that will enable them to be able to confidently conduct their duties at the port. The package is in three parts; • maritime terminology, • an illustrated compendium of ship types that might be encountered in NZ waters, and • a schematic showing the layout of a ship.
