EU MRV’s efficiency needs incentives and transparency

The European Commission’s decision on publicising data relating to the carbon emission performance of individual vessels resulted to mixed reactions as shipowners’ concern stems from the perceived simplicity of the data; that the data fails to acknowledge additional factors affecting efficiency such as cargo and weather. To drive the kind of systemic change that shipping needs to achieve to reduce its emissions sustainably will however require levels of transparency far beyond what shipping is...

PSC Focus: How vessel type determines PSC performance

Normally, a vessel entering a port is possible to be subject to a PSC inspection. The vessel is assessed through the PSC regime assessment procedure in order to be categorized as high/standard/low risk vessel or Priority I,II, Non Priority for USCG. One of the elements that is taken into consideration is the type of vessel. So why the type of vessel plays key role to determine the performance category of a vessel?

The reason is because different types operate under different standards so the PSC...
