UK Chamber of Shipping to Host Pivotal Ballast Water Forum This Week

This week (Thursday June 30, 2016) the UK Chamber of Shipping and Fathom Maritime Intelligence will host the second in a series of three ballast water management forums in London.

The forum will once again gather a plethora of experts from across the industry to discuss the challenges ship operators, owners and technology manufacturers face in the lead up to the implementation of the Ballast Water Management (BWM) Convention.

This week’s forum will be chaired by David Balston, Director of Policy & Director Safety & Environment at UK Chamber of Shipping.

The inaugural forum was an extremely well-attended event that was bursting with discussion and debate surrounding the regulatory procedures for BWM compliance and the differences in achieving International Maritime Organization (IMO) versus United States Coast Guard (USCG) Type Approval. The forum certainly bore much insights for all delegates that were in attendance.
