PP 1.6 Ship Scrapping MD/DNV (98, 99, 00, 01) OBJECTIVE To Establish a Better International Framework to Ensure Satisfactory Scrapping of Ships with Respect to both Human Safety and Environmental Consequences
PP 1.6 Ship Scrapping MD/DNV (98, 99, 00, 01) Method of Work • Identification of: • Trends on Ship Scrapping with Respect to Location and Volume • Types and Quantities of Harmful Substances on board a Ship • Potential Environmental Hazards Associated with Ship Demolition • Project Tasks: • Case Studies • Assessment of Effects on the Local Communities - Site Inspections • Legal Aspects • International Regulation • Environmental Accounting - Material Inventory Dossier
Ship Scrapping - Phase 1 • Identify trends in the ship scrapping industry • On location (the scrapping sites of the world) • On volume (the past and future predictions) • Identify substances of environmental concern • Present in ship structure, systems and components • Identify routines on disposal and handling • Removal and treatment of hazardous waste • Distribution of scrapping candidates as a function of flag state
Main scrapping centres: India/Bangladesh/ Pakistan (80% of world market) Expected growth in the scrapping markets Demand for increased capacity might open for the arrival of other non OECD scrapping nations (Vietnam, Phillipines) Substances of concern: Asbestos/ PCB/ Hg/ Pb/ TBT/ Zn/ Hydrocarbon residues No waste reception facilities identified Steel recovering, material and waste handling carried out with no protective measures Ship Scrapping - Phase 1 - Conclusions Conclusions in brief
Ship Scrapping - Phase 2 • Measures by the Shipping Industry • Develop format and guidelines for an inventory list (‘Shipboard Inventory Dossier Environment’ SIDE) of waste on board vessels for scrapping • Develop guidelines for preparing a vessel for scrapping including removal of operational waste prior to arrival at the scrapping location • Measures related to Scrapping Facilities • Mapping of working and waste disposal practices at a typical scrap yard • Develop a "Ship Breaking Industries Best Practice Guideline" as a basis for improving work practices • Evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of scrapping of ships in OECD-countries in relation to facilities in the Far East - Opportunities and limitations
