Polar Code Compliance
The ‘Polar Code’ is a mandatory international code of safety for all ships and vessels operating in polar waters around the Arctic and Antarctica. The code is designed to safeguard the unique polar eco-system from the impact increased shipping is having on the earths polar ice caps, sea life and wildlife, as well as providing protection to vessels and its crew operating within these extreme harsh environments.
The Polar Code requires all forms of ships and vessels to apply for a classification certificate, allowing them to legally operate within the laws and restrictions of the Polar Code. This means your vessel is now required to meet stringent standards before being accepted for certification or allowed to operate in polar waters.
The code also requires all ships to carry a Polar Water Operational Manual as they state “to provide the Owner, Operator, Master and crew with sufficient information regarding the ship’s operational capabilities and limitations in order to support their decision-making process”.
