PORT STATE CONTROL

DESCRIPTION

Port State Control is a rapidly and constantly changing area for shipowners, operators and maritime administrations.

It demands particularly high standards of technical knowledge with respect to ship operations and their related regulations according to international conventions, and other national or regional instruments in order to promote both maritime safety and the flow of commerce.

This well established certificated course, which is a pioneer in its field – now in its twenty-third year – is well respected internationally, having been attended by representatives from a large number of countries. Their backgrounds have included maritime officials, port state inspectors, surveyors, port and harbour managers, P&I clubs, regional MOUs, marine superintendents and DPAs.

The course provides a thorough and clear up-to-date guide and analysis to the main port state control conventions, amendments and related codes, inspection procedures and key developments in port state control in MOU. A further feature of the course concentrates on the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS).

Above all, there is considerable opportunity to discuss issues and raise questions in what is an informal and lively atmosphere.

Port State Control course is conducted under the direction of the International Maritime Bureau (IMB) of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). The faculty consists of senior speakers drawn from international organisations and maritime agencies from the UK and other European countries. The course material has been structured as an comprehensive workshop and is complimented by port and vessel visits.
