Third meeting of the Forum

IMG 2243The third meeting of the Arctic Council's Arctic Shipping Best Practice Information Forum took place on June 3-4 2019 at the Embassy of the United States, London.

The purpose of the Forum is to support effective implementation of the IMO Polar Code by making publicly available on a dedicated web portal information relevant to all those involved in safe and environmentally sound Arctic shipping, including shipowners/operators, regulators, classification societies, marine insurers, and indigenous and local communities.

Forum's web-portal: www.arcticshippingforum.is

The Forum places particular emphasis on collecting information of use to Maritime Administrations and/or Recognized Organizations in issuing Polar Ship Certificates and conducting Operational Assessments, as well as information to be used by the shipowners and operators in developing Polar Water Operational Manuals.
