    IMO Guidelines on Ship Recycling, Consolidated Edition 2006

    The 23rd session of the IMO Assembly, having noted the growing concerns about environmental safety, health and welfare matters in the ship recycling industry, and the need to reduce the environmental, occupational health and safety risks related to ship recycling and, at the same time, securing the smooth withdrawal of ships that have reached the end of their operating lives, and, having considered the Technical Guidelines for the Environmentally Sound Management of the Full and Partial Dismantling of Ships adopted by the Sixth Meeting of the Conference of Parties to the Basel Convention, and the Guidelines on Safety and Health in Shipbreaking developed by the International Labour Organization (ILO), and also the Code of Practice on Ship Recycling developed by the shipping industry, adopted the IMO Guidelines on ship recycling by resolution A.962(23) in December 2003.

    Furthermore, the 24th session of the Assembly, recognizing the need to keep the IMO Guidelines on ship recycling updated in the light of experience gained in their implementation, adopted amendments to them by resolution A.980(24), urging Governments to apply the IMO Guidelines on ship recycling as amended.

    The present publication contains the consolidated text of the IMO Guidelines on ship recycling that were adopted by resolution A.962(23), as amended by resolution A.980(24), while also referring to the existence and relevance of the guidelines on the same subject by ILO and by the Basel Convention.

    MS SeaReader - Catalogue

    SeaReader 1.6 includes many minor changes and bug fixes. New Edition was released September 2023.

    SeaReader is a digital technical catalogue for use on board vessels or in the office. It stores all of the publications that are needed on board and displays them in a digital format that is fast and easy to use.

    New Editions
    Publications that are in the announcements section of the distributor portal will also appear as “New Publications” in SeaReader. They will be at the top of the Catalogue view and be marked with a yellow star.

    Offline Mode
    SeaReader can now operate without any internet connection. The user must provide their distributor with an Activation file from the settings window of a SeaReader client.

    Custom Notes
    Users are now able to add their own custom notes to the publications inside SeaReader. These notes can then be searched for and the user can jump to the page for easy access to important content. Notes can also be exported and shared to other users. This will allow educators to share premade notes with students or shipping companies to indicate important items of text in a publication.

    eBooks are available to purchase individually or in bulk and once installed, the SeaReader is easy to use.

    The digital library is easy to access and update and you don’t need to be online to access the publications. SeaReader makes compliance inspections easy by having the latest mandatory publications on board at all times.
    The shipping costs and administration associated with maintaining a paper library are removed - there are no physical books to ship and the entire library is updated with the click of a button.

    SeaReader contains Flag State Regulations from Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Canada, Cayman Islands, Cyprus, Denmark, Hong Kong, Isle of Man, Liberia, Malta, Marshall Islands, Netherlands, Norway, Panama, Singapore, United Kingdom, USA and Red Ensign Group. Included e-books from IMO, Brown, Son & Ferguson, Imray, and a growing list of other maritime publishers.

    SeaReader keeps the administrative work on board to a minimum as the latest set of publications are always available.
    The easy to use system makes it quick and easy to see what books are on board the vessel. One annual licence provides access to paid for ebooks on two separate PCs.

    SeaReader is simple, very easy and intuitive to use. With one-click updating and filtered search results, it is quick and easy to find the information you need. There is no need for additional work to make sure your vessel is flag state compliant, as SeaReader does this for you.
