IMAREM to launch MRV shipping programme

The new MRV Programme is part of IMAREM’s Positive Ship Programme which is designed to help shipping companies comply with the new EU MRV Shipping Regulations more effectively, reduce administrative burden and provide compliance solutions for optimal low-carbon and energy efficient operations.

It constitutes a continuous support package solution tailored to the needs of shipping companies with all the necessary tools, technical and policy guidance needed to comply with the new legal requirements.

The new EU MRV Shipping Regulation which entered into force on the 1 July 2015 presents a number of new challenges for shipping companies. Difficulties are arising in understanding the new regulatory requirements and preparing vessel-specific monitoring plans.

Added to this, developing accurate emission reports constitutes a strategic decision for shipping companies and requires a high degree of expertise over several vessel-specific technical/operational parameters and characteristics.

IMAREM’s new MRV Programme helps shipping companies act strategically on energy efficiency and compile complete, technically reliable and transparent documents. It also guarantees that all necessary documents are sent on time and at the correct format to the European Commission and the respective flag States in line with the EU Regulation.

Lastly, it ensures that shipping companies are informed about all the on-going legal developments of the new regulation and allows them to obtain an efficient MRV solution for their entire fleet, tailored to their needs minimising the risks and costs of compliance and verification.
