Ballast water management (BWM) convention to enter into force in sep 2017

The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments (BWM Convention) will enter into force on 8 September 2017. The convention stipulates that it will enter into force 12 months after ratification by a minimum of 30 States, representing 35% of world merchant shipping tonnage. Finland ratified this convention on 8th september 2016 to make the total gross tonnage to 35.1 percent and contracting parties to 52. So, after 12 months from this date, this convention will come into force on 8th september 2017.

This convention deals with halting the spread of invasive aquatic species, which can cause havoc for local ecosystems, affect biodiversity and lead to substantial economic loss. Under the Convention's terms, ships will be required to manage their ballast water to remove, render harmless, or avoid the uptake or discharge of aquatic organisms and pathogens within bal'iast water and sediments

The BWM Convention was adopted in 2004 by the lnternational Maritime Organization (lMO), the United Nations specialized agency with responsibility for developing global standards for ship safety and security and for the protection of the marine environment and the atmosphere from any harmful impacts of shipping.

From 8 September 2017, all ships of 400gt and above will be required to have onboard
- An approved Ballast Water Management plan
- A Ballast Water Record Book.
- All ships fitted with Ballast water treatment systems must have a type approval certificate in compliance with the IMO Guidelines for the approval of ballast water management systems
- An International Ballast Water Management Certificate or statement of compliance.

Explain shipping term Sheer and its purpose

This article explains the terms sheer, flare and camber in ship construction and its purpose

Sheer
Sheer is the rise of the deck in a fore and aft direction. The amount of the sheer is measured vertically from a level line through the deck at the midship to the deck at the two perpendiculars.



Purpose
a) To increase the reserve buoyancy at the ends of the vessel.
b) To counter the immersion of the ends that may occur during pitching and is important particularly for smaller vessels
c) To increase the "Seaworthiness of the ship, that is amount of water coming in on deck would be reduced
d) since fore end is more susceptible to immersion than the aft end, "standard sheer is a parabolic curve with sheer twice that of sheer aft. Modern ships have straight line sheer, often in the fore body only, in some cases only over the forward one third ship's length. Sometimes, very large ships, the minimum bow height is achieved without the need for sheer, conversely, very small vessels may hve very large sheer forward and aft

Flare and its purpose

Camber and its purpose

Explain Camber in ship construction and its advantage?

This article explains the definition and purposes of camber, sheer and flare.

Camber
Camber is the rise of the deck from the ships side to the centerline,



Purpose
a) to facilitate drainage of water,
b) Increase the resistance to deflection under load;
c) Standard camber is parabolic and approximately 1/50th of the breadth of the ship. Modern ships have "dog-log' camber where they are level across the deck between the hatches then dropping in a straight line to the deck at side.
d) the upper deck were to be constructed flat, the humps & hollows that occur due to welding distortion would delay complete drainage.

Flare and its purpose

Sheer and its purpose

Define Flare in ship construction and its purpose

This article explains that Definition of flare, camber, sheer and thier purposes.

Flare It is the outward curvature of the shell at the forward end of the ship.


Purpose
a) It increases the reserve of buoyancy at the forward end to give better seaworthiness when pitching.
b) water is dispersed away from the ship when lightly pitching (driver deck)
c)  creates it wider forecastle deck, giving more spaces for the fitting off machinery such as the windlass
d)  allows it cleared up life of the anchor from the water, thuz reducing hul damage by abrasion
