• Method: Beaching, high tidal range, soft & muddy sands
• General situation: Difficult – insecure, most lucrative player
– Tentative permission from mid-April till July 7th 2011
– Steel from ship recycling covers 70-80% of national demand
• Recent developments:
– Re-opening of few facilities after ~12 months of closure
– Numerous new requirements (e.g. Gas for Hot Works Certificate)
• Shortcomings / challenges:
– HSE, infrastructure, training, knowledge, machinery, attitude
– Following new requirements
• Personal impression: short term strategy, less developed

• Method: Beaching, low tidal range, hard standing beaches
• General situation: Pro-Active
• Gas for Hot Works Certificate / conditions
• Recent developments:
– promoting green ship recycling
– New facilities in planning
• Shortcomings / challenges:
– Recycling planning, training, waste management
• Personal impression:
– longer term business strategy, awareness higher
– most developed of the three countries

• Method: Beaching, low tidal range, hard standing beaches
• General situation: “Silent player”
– Gas free for man entry only
• Recent developments:
– none
• Shortcomings:
– HSE, infrastructure, training, knowledge, use of machinery ,
attitude, short term business strategy
• Personal impression:
– Lack of legislation / enforcement
– No developments since years, least developed

• “Visible recycling method” has marginal influence
– Ship recycling is a complex activity, safe and environmentally
sound practice is a result of numerous measures and factors
– All major ship recyclers work in /above water

• Safe and sound conditions
– All “bits and pieces” together create acceptable conditions
• General requirements laid out in ISO 30000
– “Ship and facility has to match”
• Quality criteria:
– HSE aspects
– Emergency preparedness
– Roles & Responsibilities
– Reduction of contamination
– Disposal
General aspects Further considerations

• Examples:
– HazMat handling, Hospital / PPE,
tank & pipe draining
– Access, Fire Fighters, 1st Aid
– Training, facility management
– “Concrete vs. soil”
– Treatment, facilities
Conclusion
July 27th, 2011 Ship Recycling Workshop, EMSA - Lisbon 15
• Requirements to be based on knowledge & investigations,
e.g.:
– Risk assessments (theoretical approach)
– Best practice criteria (under development by us), e.g.:
• Cutting technology
• Technique / limitations
• Temperature & speed
• Facility lay-out
• HazMat Removal techniques & practices
• Trainings
• Containment / distribution of hazardous materials
• ...

Further criteria relevant for ship
recycling
Attachments
July 27th, 2011 Ship Recycling Workshop, EMSA - Lisbon 17
• Certifications
– Recycling countries: certificate = compliance, no action required
– Europe: certificate = compliance, constant maintenance required
– (ISO 30000) certificates frequently issued by questionable certifiers
• Socio-economic aspects
– Importance of industry and social security in recycling country
– Creation of infrastructure = improvement for local communities and
ship recyclers, additional business and employment options
– Not to be used for justification of adverse effects
General aspects Further considerations
July 27th, 2011 Ship Recycling Workshop, EMSA - Lisbon 18
• When are improvements possible?
– Return of investment
• Duration of operation clear (e.g. permissions, lease contracts)
• Continuity of supply and requirements
– Competition on a level playing field
– Political situation / safety
• Distribution of costs (administrations - recyclers - shipowners)
– Forced
• Effective control measures (independent)
• Contractual requirements (business to business)
• Blame & Shame (essential and quickest effect)
– Support and transfer of knowledge
• In case of lack of resources
General aspects Further considerations
July 27th, 2011 Ship Recycling Workshop, EMSA - Lisbon 19
• IHM preparation acc. to Res.MEPC.179(59)
– Within defined time frame for:
• Compliance with future IMO legislation (avoiding bottleneck)
• Utilization for onboard HSE-aspects
– Safeguarding persons onboard (crew, passengers, PSC officers, …)
– Repair and decontamination planning (acc. to IMO/MSC)
– Latest prior to last voyage / recycling
• Preparation of Ship Recycling Plan
• Delivery of ships in “gas free for hot works” conditions
• “Final Survey” by Flag / Exporting State for verification
Proposed measures for Ships acc. to Hong Kong Convention (SR/CONF/45)
July 27th, 2011 Ship Recycling Workshop, EMSA - Lisbon 20
• Individual approach (standards of facilities vary in same country)
– HSE aspects
• Recycling techniques and chronology
• Identification, removal and disposal of HazMats
– Equipment & Training (dedicated teams)
• Preventive measures (explosions, contaminations, minimization)
– Infrastructure (incl. requirements for sub-contractors)
• Trading, separation, treatment, and disposal of materials
– Emergency preparedness
– Roles & Responsibilities
– Training
– Independent of existing certificates, etc.
