Dear Reader,

Welcome to IMO Publishing’s new catalogue. We have enhanced a number of our titles andissued them in a range of formats to respond to your requirements.

More and more of our titles are now available in the form of eBooks. These are indexed, linkedand fully searchable PDF files: you can download them immediately and get on with yourwork.

Furthermore, we now offer free two-day trials for all our internet subscription products(SOLAS, MARPOL, IMDG Code and IMO-Vega). These trials enable you to test all the featuresof these products free of charge for two working days. Please send an e-mail to [email protected] and we will set up a trial for you.

Since the last edition of our catalogue, several of our core titles have been revised to provideyou with the most up-to-date maritime information. New editions include the PerformanceStandards (2008 Edition) and Ships’ Routeing (2008 Edition).

Performance Standards for Shipborne Radiocommunications and Navigational Equipment(2008 Edition) is essential reading for the shipbuilding industry, manufacturers of equipment,shipyards and Administrations. This new edition incorporates all existing and revisedperformance standards adopted up to November 2007.

The new edition of Ships’ Routeing covers all ships’ routeing and mandatory reporting systemsadopted by IMO up to and including the 83rd session of the Maritime Safety Committee(October 2007). In addition to extensive amendments to existing systems, the publicationincludes valuable information about entirely new systems. Although primarily intended for useby Administrations, it is indispensable for all seafarers.

Coming up later this year are new editions of the IMDG Code (including Amendment 34-08)and its Supplement, which will be published in October 2008.

I hope you find this catalogue interesting and useful. If you like it, tell others; if you don’t, tell us.We look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

About IMOIMO is a technical organization established in 1958. Today, it has 167 Member States plusthree Associate Members. Formal arrangements for co-operation and/or consultative statushave been established with a large number of international organizations.

The Organization’s chief task, especially in the early years, was to develop a comprehensivebody of international conventions, codes and recommendations which could be implementedby all Member Governments. This international approach is essential, for the effectiveness ofIMO measures depends upon how widely they are accepted and how they are implemented.The fact that the most important IMO conventions are now accepted by countries whosecombined merchant fleets represent 98% of the world total indicates how successful this policyhas been.

The governing body of IMO is the Assembly, which meets every two years. In betweenAssembly sessions a Council, consisting of 40 Member States elected by the Assembly, acts asgoverning body. The technical work of IMO is carried out by a series of committees. TheMaritime Safety Committee is the most senior of these and has sub-committees dealing withthe following subjects: safety of navigation, radiocommunications and search and rescue,standards of training and watchkeeping, carriage of dangerous goods, solid cargoes andcontainers, ship design and equipment, fire protection, stability and load lines and fishing vesselsafety, bulk liquids and gases and flag State implementation.

The Marine Environment Protection Committee deals with pollution prevention. IMO also hasa Legal Committee, originally established to deal with legal problems resulting from the TorreyCanyon pollution disaster of 1967 but later made a permanent body.

The Technical Co-operation Committee handles IMO’s growing technical co-operationprogramme, which is designed to help Member Governments implement the technicalmeasures adopted by the Organization, and the Facilitation Committee deals with measures tosimplify the documentation and formalities required in international shipping.

The Secretariat consists of some 300 international civil servants headed by a Secretary-General.The IMO Headquarters is in London, just across the River Thames from the Houses ofParliament.

About IMO’s publishing activities

IMO’s publishing activities provides the world maritime community with numerous texts(conventions, codes, regulations, recommendations, guidelines, etc.) prepared by theOrganization as part of its work programme. The world-wide dissemination of this informationplays an important role in the promotion of maritime safety and the prevention of marinepollution from ships.

Today, IMO has over 250 titles available in English. Many are translated into French, Spanish,Arabic, Chinese and Russian. IMO also has electronic publications on CD and many eBooksavailable from our website as well as an internet subscription service featuring four keyproducts.

CODE OF PRACTICE FOR THE SAFELOADING AND UNLOADINGOF BULK (BLU) CARRIERS(1998 Edition)

Being concerned about the continued loss ofships carrying solid bulk cargoes, sometimeswithout a trace, and the heavy loss of lifeincurred, and recognizing that a number ofaccidents have occurred as a result ofimproper loading and unloading of bulkcarriers, the Sub-Committee on DangerousGoods, Solid Cargoes and Containers (DSC)at its first session (February 1996) developeda draft code of practice for the safe loadingand unloading of bulk carriers, with the aimof preventing such accidents.

The resulting Code of Practice for the SafeLoading and Unloading of Bulk Carriers (BLUCode) was approved by the Maritime SafetyCommittee (MSC) at its sixty-eighth session(June 1997) and adopted by the Assembly atits twentieth session (November 1997) byresolution A.862(20).

The BLU Code, which provides guidance toship masters of bulk carriers, terminaloperators and other parties concerned forthe safe handling, loading and unloading ofsolid bulk cargoes, is also linked to regulationVI/7 of SOLAS, as amended by resolutionMSC.47(66).

NEWMANUAL ONLOADING ANDUNLOADING OFSOLID BULK CARGOESFOR TERMINALREPRESENTATIVES(BLU Manual)(2008 Edition)

In response to the continuing loss of shipscarrying solid bulk cargoes sometimeswithout trace and with heavy loss of life, theCode of Safe Practice for the Safe Loadingand Unloading of Bulk Carriers (BLU Code)was developed by IMO as one of a numberof measures to enhance the operational andstructural safety of bulk carriers. It wasadopted as a recommendatory instrument bythe International Maritime Organization’sAssembly at its twentieth session inNovember 1997.

Possible stress and damage imposed bycargo handling throughout the life of a shipwas considered to be a possible contributorycause of structural failure of bulk carriersleading to casualties and losses. The purposeof the BLU Code, therefore, is to provideguidance to ship masters of bulk carriers,terminal operators and other parties for thesafe handling, loading and unloading of solidbulk cargoes.

To augment BLU Code, the BLU Manual isintended to provide more detailed guidanceto Terminal Representatives (as defined in theBLU Code) and others involved in thehandling of solid bulk cargoes; includingthose responsible for the training ofpersonnel.

REVISED RECOMMENDATIONSON THE SAFE TRANSPORT OFDANGEROUS GOODSIN PORT AREAS(2007 Edition)

A Recommendation on the Safe Practice ofDangerous Goods in Ports and Harbours wasfirst circulated by the Organization inNovember 1973. The subsequentdevelopment of new techniques in shore and

ship operations, as well as the desirability ofhaving more comprehensiverecommendations which included dangerousgoods in packaged form, liquid and soliddangerous substances and liquefied gascarried in bulk, made it necessary to reviseand update the Recommendation.

The Recommendations are aligned withrelevant IMO codes and the IMDG Code inparticular. It is considered essential toharmonize the rules within the port area withthe ship in order to ensure smoothoperations and to avoid misunderstandingsbetween ship and shore. A non-exhaustiveglossary of relevance to the handling ofdangerous cargoes is given in appendix 1 ofthis publication.

CIVIL LIABILITY FOROIL POLLUTIONDAMAGE(1996 Edition)

When it became clear that the Protocols of1984 to the 1969 Civil Liability Conventionand to the 1971 Fund Convention wereunlikely to come into force in the foreseeablefuture, because an insufficient number ofStates had adopted them, new, slightlyamended protocols were drafted with lowerrequirements for entry into force. These draftprotocols were presented to the 1992International Conference on the Revision of


the 1969 Civil Liability Convention and the1971 Fund Convention, which met in Londonin November 1992. The Conference adoptedthese protocols and five resolutions.

This publication contains the texts that resultedfrom the work of the Conference, as well asconsolidated texts of the two Conventions asamended by the 1992 Protocols.

MARPOL – HOW TO DO IT(2002 Edition)

A publication entitled MARPOL: How to do itwas first published by the InternationalMaritime Organization (IMO) in 1993 toprovide advice on the process of ratification,implementation and enforcement of theInternational Convention for the Prevention ofPollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by theProtocol of 1978 relating thereto (MARPOL).

This publication is a revised and updatedversion of the 1993 edition. The text relatingto enforcement in chapters 4, 7 and 19 wasprepared by a correspondence group ofIMO’s Marine Environment ProtectionCommittee (MEPC) and reviewed byMEPC 45 (October 2000). This editionsupersedes the 1993 edition.

Although MARPOL entered into force on2 October 1983, there are still many IMOMember States that have not ratified it or all itsoptional Annexes. Of those countries that havealready ratified MARPOL, there are manywhich fail to implement all the requirements ofthe Convention and its related Protocols.

This Manual provides useful practicalinformation to Governments, particularlythose of developing countries, on thetechnical, economic and legal implications ofratifying, implementing and enforcingMARPOL. The aim is to encourage thefurther ratification and properimplementation and enforcement of theConvention, but it should be noted that, forlegal purposes, the authentic text ofMARPOL should always be consulted.

It is emphasized that the Annexes to MARPOLare living documents that develop over time.This Manual does not attempt to be fully up to


date and the reader is strongly advised toconsult recent updates of the instrumentsthrough IMO documents and publications.

PARTICULARLYSENSITIVE SEA AREAS(PSSA)(2007 Edition)

A Particularly Sensitive Sea Area (PSSA) is anarea of the marine environment that needsspecial protection through action by theInternational Maritime Organization (IMO)because of its significance for recognizedecological, socio-economic, or scientificattributes where such attributes may bevulnerable to damage by internationalshipping activities. At the time of designationof a PSSA, an Associated Protective Measure(APM), which meets the requirements of theappropriate legal instrument establishingsuch measure, must have been approved oradopted by IMO to prevent, reduce, oreliminate the threat or identified vulnerability.IMO is the only international bodyresponsible for assessing proposals for anddesignating areas as PSSAs and adoptingmeasures applicable to internationalshipping. This publication provides the readerwith an overview of all PSSAs designated bythe MEPC since 1990 and includes all key‘legal documents’ as follows:

1 Revised PSSA Guidelines;

2 Revised Guidelines to submit a PSSAProposal to IMO;

3 PSSA Proposal Review Form; and

4 Uniform PSSA Resolution Format.

These texts were designed by the MarineEnvironment Protection Committee (MEPC)to assist Member Governments in thepreparation, identification and submission ofPSSAs and to provide the MEPC with theinformation for a robust review method of aPSSA proposal to ensure that the revisedPSSA Guidelines are fulfilled. It is also hopedthat this publication will also assist marinersworldwide to approach and navigate near orthrough these PSSAs with caution and act asrecommended by the APMs.

BIOREMEDIATION INMARINE OIL SPILLS(2004 Edition)

Major incidents such as the Amoco Cadiz(France, 1978), the Exxon Valdez (USA,1989), the Braer (UK, 1993), the Sea Empress(UK, 1996), the Erika (France, 1999) and thePrestige (Spain, 2002) have provided thestimulus for the development of alternativeresponse techniques to tackle oil pollutionboth at sea and on the shoreline. One suchtechnique is bioremediation. Althoughrecognized as a potential response option 30years ago, it is receiving renewed attention asmore environmentally acceptable clean-upmethods are sought and as new claims of thepotency of bioremediation are made.

The aim of these guidelines is to provideusers with clear criteria to enable them toevaluate the circumstances in which toconsider the use of bioremediation forshoreline cleanup. These guidelines are notintended to address the treatment of wastegenerated oil spills. They contain a summaryof the most important bioremediationprocesses and decision-making criteria. Thevarious strategies are discussed and somesuggestions as to how to monitor theeffectiveness and check for possible adverseconsequences of the technique are made.Suggestions for further reading are alsoprovided for readers who wish to study thissubject in greater detail.

GUIDELINES FOR THEDEVELOPMENT OFSHIPBOARD MARINEPOLLUTIONEMERGENCY PLANS(2001 Edition)

Regulation 26 of Annex I of MARPOLrequires that oil tankers of 150 tons grosstonnage or more and all ships of 400 tonsgross tonnage or more carry an approvedShipboard Oil Pollution Emergency Plan(SOPEP). The International Convention onOil Pollution Preparedness, Response andCo-operation (OPRC), 1990, also requiressuch a plan for certain ships.

Regulation 16 of Annex II of MARPOL makessimilar stipulations for all ships of 150 tonsgross tonnage and above carrying noxiousliquid substances in bulk: they are required tocarry on board an approved marine pollutionemergency plan for noxious liquid substances.The latter should be combined with a SOPEP,since most of their contents are the same andthe combined plan is more practical than twoseparate ones in case of an emergency. Tomake it clear that the plan is a combined one,it should be referred to as a Shipboard MarinePollution Emergency Plan (SMPEP).

This publication has been developed by IMOto help Administrations and shipowners meetthese requirements. Specimen formats areincluded.

FIELD GUIDE FOR OIL SPILLRESPONSE IN TROPICAL WATERS(1997 Edition)

Many tropical regions are at risk from oilspills, whether from shipping passing alongimportant routes nearby or from offshore oilproduction or coastal refineries. Manytropical nations rely on the sea for food andneed clean water for aquaculture ponds, tofeed desalination plants and to sustaintourism. There are also important uniqueecosystems, many of them very vulnerable tooil spills and in remote areas. It is importantthat if there are spills they are rapidly andeffectively contained, but the properties of oilin tropical waters differ so greatly from thosein colder waters that a separate guide isneeded for these regions.

This extensively illustrated field guide isdirected towards those who have to respondto oil spills in tropical marine waters. It aimsto provide information and general guidanceon the response measures to be taken (andon those to be avoided) for the differenttypes of tropical habitat. Backgroundinformation is given on the fate of spilled oil,characteristics of the different marine habitatsand suitable techniques to use to respond tooil spills. The principles of spill responsedescribed in this guide are based on casehistories and on experiments that have beenreported in the scientific literature.

The IMO Sub-Committee on Flag StateImplementation, recognizing the need for asingle comprehensive document, reviewedand amalgamated existing resolutions anddocuments. This resulted in the adoption, in1995, of resolution A.787(19), Proceduresfor Port State Control.

The resolution provides basic guidance toAdministrations on the conduct ofinspections, in order to promote consistencyin the conduct of inspections worldwide andharmonize the criteria for the application ofcontrol procedures. The General ProceduralGuidelines for Port State Control Officers areof particular relevance.

Amendments were adopted in November1999 by resolution A.882(21).

This publication contains the consolidatedtext of resolution A.787(19), incorporatingthe amendments adopted by resolutionA.882(21). It also includes updatedinformation on contact addresses ofresponsible national authorities.

INTERNATIONALCODE FOR THECONSTRUCTION ANDEQUIPMENT OF SHIPSCARRYINGDANGEROUSCHEMICALS IN BULK(IBC) Code(2007 Edition)

On 17 June 1983, the Maritime SafetyCommittee (MSC) adopted, by resolutionMSC.4(48), the International Code for theConstruction and Equipment of ShipsCarrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk (IBCCode). On 5 December 1985, by resolutionMEPC.19(22), the IBC Code was extendedby the Marine Environment ProtectionCommittee (MEPC) to cover marine pollutionaspects for the implementation of Annex II tothe International Convention for thePrevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, asmodified by the Protocol of 1978 relatingthereto (MARPOL).

Henceforth, chemical tankers constructed onor after 1 July 1986 must comply with theprovisions of the Code, under the provisionsof chapter VII of the International Convention

for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974 (SOLAS), asamended, and the provisions of Annex II toMARPOL respectively.

The revised Annex II to MARPOL, which wasadopted by resolution MEPC.118(52),encompassed the development of a newpollution categorization system and criteriafor assigning products to these newcategories; and the revision of strippingrequirements and discharge criteria. As aconsequence of these revisions, it wasnecessary to make a number of amendmentsto the IBC Code. The amended IBC Codewas adopted by resolutions MEPC.119(52)and MSC.176(79) in October 2004 andDecember 2004 respectively. Since theadoption of the amended IBC Code by thesetwo resolutions, products contained in theCode have had their carriage requirements orproduct name revised in light of newinformation, and the evaluation andassignment of carriage requirements of newproducts has continued with a view forinclusion in the next set of amendments ofthe IBC Code. These products have alsobeen included in chapters 17 or 18 asappropriate and are marked with a footnote(n) in this edition of the Code.

Under regulation 11 of Annex II to MARPOL,chemical tankers constructed before 1 July1986 must comply with the provisions of theCode for the Construction and Equipment ofShips Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk(BCH Code). Under SOLAS, the BCH Coderemains as a recommendation. The BCHCode is issued as a separate publication.

The IBC Code is now the definitive source ofnames for products subject to Annex II toMARPOL. The Index of DangerousChemicals Carried in Bulk is included in thispublication.

Reference is also made to the MEPC.2/Circulars, issued annually in December.These contain, inter alia, details of productsthat have been the subject of TripartiteAgreements and are, in effect, a supplementto the IBC Code during the interim periodbefore the entry into force of relevantamendments of the Code. Annex 1 of thesecirculars includes products that are expectedto become new or amended entries to theIBC Code. A future amendment, shown in


the Circular, serves as prior notice of thecarriage conditions which will only apply tothat product when the next set ofamendments enter into force.

GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS FOR FIRECONTROL PLANS(2006 Edition)

The importance of universally understoodsymbols for fire control plans for use by ship’screw and shore-based fire-fighting personnelhas long been recognized. In 1989, IMOadopted graphical symbols for fire controlplans (resolution A.654(16)) for use inaccordance with regulation II-2/20 of SOLAS,with a view to encouraging their use onboard all ships. In 2003 a new set of symbolswas adopted by resolution A.952(23). Theoriginal symbols may still be used for firecontrol plans on board ships constructedbefore 1 January 2004, but Governments areurged to encourage the use of the symbolsthat were adopted by resolution A.952(23)for the preparation of the shipboard firecontrol plans required by SOLAS regulationII-2/15.2.4 for ships constructed on or after 1January 2004.

These symbols have now been reproduced,in English, in a double-sided poster form(594 mm 6 841 mm, in colour) that can be

used as appropriate to the fire control plansthat are on board a specific ship.

OPERATIONAL USE OFINTEGRATED BRIDGE SYSTEMSINCLUDING INTEGRATEDNAVIGATION SYSTEMS(Model course 1.32) (2005 Edition)

The safe and efficient use at sea of integratedbridge systems (IBS) and integratednavigation systems (INS) requires a level ofknowledge byond that normally given in thetraining of an officer in charge of anavigational watch. It is not just a matter oflearning to use new controls, displaytechniques or how to switch on and offautomatic functions. More importantly, it islearning the decision making processes thatmust be applied in order to gain the fullbenefits of the integration in a safe mannerand avoid the new problems that automaticcontrols and integrated systems cansometimes provoke.

This model course has been designedrecognizing that integrated bridge systemsand integrated navigation systems are avoluntary installation on vessels and theydiffer significantly in their configuration andoperation from vessel to vessel. They can alsointerconnect to other bridge equipment andsystems, which may be compulsorily fitted tovessels, as part of SOLAS or otherrequirements.

THE IMO–VegaDATABASE, Version 12(2007 Edition)

Over the years, the safety and pollution-prevention requirements applicable to shipsin international trade have become more andmore complex. A ship’s age, size, type, flag,cargo, even its trading area, may all berelevant, and the requirements themselvesare in a state of constant evolution. Today,defining rapidly and clearly which parts ofinternational conventions and codes andwhich national statutory requirements applyto a specific ship can be a real headache.

The IMO-Vega database, developed jointlyby IMO and Det Norske Veritas (DNV), putsall the necessary information at yourfingertips. Given year of build, ship type, shipsize, cargo, trade area and flag, IMO-Vegawill quickly identify the requirementsapplicable to the ship in question.

Unlike other, similar products, IMO-Vegacontains historical data – including regulationswhich have been superseded. In the context ofport State control, for example, access to the

correct historical regulations is essential.

IMO-Vega is an essential tool for anyoneinvolved in shipping: shipowners andoperators, shipbuilders, classificationsocieties, casualty investigators,Governments, insurers and underwriters, portauthorities, surveyors and many others.

Issued on a single disk, version 11 of IMO-Vega includes up-to-date texts, with allamendments adopted up to 2005, of, interalia, the following IMO requirements:

. 1974 SOLAS Convention, including the1978 and 1988 Protocols and all theamendments

. 1966 Load Lines Convention, includingthe 1988 and 2003 Protocols

. MARPOL, including all amendments

IMO SMCP on CD:A PRONUNCIATION GUIDE,Version 1 (2004)

In November 2001 the draft of the IMOStandard Marine Communication Phrases(SMCP) that had been adopted by theMaritime Safety Committee in 1997 wasamended, following international trials, andadopted by Assembly resolution A.918(22).This resolution revokes A.380(X), by whichthe Standard Marine NavigationalVocabulary was adopted in 1977.

The phrases are divided into part A and partB. Part A covers phrases to be appliedaccording to the requirements of table A-II/1(minimum competence of officers in chargeof a navigational watch on ships of 500 grosstonnage) of the STCW Code, and may thusbe regarded as the replacement of theStandard Marine Navigational Vocabulary,1985. This part is enriched by essentialphrases concerning ship handling and safetyof navigation to be used in on-boardcommunications. Part B calls attention toother on-board standard safety-relatedphrases which, supplementary to part A, mayalso be regarded as useful for maritimeEnglish instruction.

A separate pronunciation guide is availableas software, on a compact disc, that can beused in a personal computer (minimumrequirements are an IBM-compatible PC,

running Windows 95 or later, with an ISO-compatible CD drive, a Windows-compatiblesound card, a Pentium II processor running at450 MHz, and 64 MB of RAM). The phrasescan be selected by number, or found bysearching for words, before they are played.This guide can be used as a learning aid tosupplement the book, and can also be usedwith the French (IA987F) and Spanish(IA987S) editions. These editions eachinclude the phrases in English plus theirtranslations in the other language.
