PORT-CITY CLOSENESS AND TURNAROUND TIME CRITICAL

Abstract: Air pollution is the most relevant externality of maritime transport and its effects are  more acute in urban areas. As Short Sea Shipping (SSS) services call ports frequently and expend  significant time in port, both the overall turnaround time and the port city closeness, become  critical in their sustainable performance. This paper analyses the impact of maritime transport
on Spanish SSS ports and identifies the ideal ones, reflecting the differences in their sustainable  performance and finally identifying the characteristics that a harbour needs to gather in order to  minimize air pollution impact in the maritime transport sector.

 

MARPOL Annex VI seeks a progressive reduction in SOx emissions limiting the  sulphur content in marine fuel oils. The  actual sulphur

Call for IMO to Ensure Fuel Transparency

 

Transport & Environment, Seas at Risk and Carbon War Room are urging the IMO not to withhold data on ship efficiency and fuel consumption. The call for action follows moves by some industry groups to undermine initiatives at the IMO and EU level that would make efficiency performance publicly available and require ships to report and publicize their energy efficiency data.

 

In submissions to the IMO’s environment committee (MEPC), Transport & Environment (T&E) and Seas at Risk (SAR) – both members of the Clean Shipping Coalition – have drawn on research by the University of Gothenburg which states that transparency is essential if the industry is to reduce its GHG emissions and develop a sustainable low-carbon future. The study prepared by Jessica
