In freezing water, you have only 15 minutes before losing consciousness, but this suit can greatly increase your chances of survival. Learn how this immersion suit works and why it's a vital piece of gear in an emergency.

How the MARPOL convention protects the seas and how sailors prevent marine disasters.

How Do You Survive The Crashing Waves And Storms In The Open Ocean?

Have You Ever Wondered What Happens If A Ship Is In Trouble In The Middle Of The Ocean?

Significant oil spill incidents and the hefty fines and penalties imposed for environmental damage.

How the international community enforces strict environmental regulations and penalizes violators to protect the planet.

This is how global conventions protect oceans from pollution and safeguard marine life.

Marpol Annex 6 , concerning air pollution from ships, includes measures to control emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere.

Annex V introduces restrictions and bans on the discharge of garbage from ships.

Annex 4 concerning sewage, entered into force in September 2003. It regulates the discharge of sewage from ships.

Marpol Annex 2 concerning noxious liquid substances carried in bulk, entered into force in April 1987. It establishes rules for the carriage and discharge of harmful liquid substances, including the classification of substances and requirements for their transportation.

Annex 3 concerning harmful substances carried in packaged form, entered into force in July 1992. It pertains to the packaging, labeling, documentation, and stowage of dangerous goods, defining measures to prevent pollution during their transportation.

Marpol Annex I, concerning oil, entered into force on October 2, 1983. It regulates the discharge of oil and oily mixtures, including mandatory requirements for equipment to prevent oil spills.

Today, we're focusing on MARPOL Annex I - specifically the requirements for the machinery spaces of all ships. This video covers Chapter 3 - Regulations 12 to 17, which outline essential rules for preventing oil pollution from ships. By the end of this video, you'll have a clear understanding of the construction, equipment, and operational control measures outlined in MARPOL Annex I for all ships, which are designed to prevent oil pollution at sea. We'll dive into Part A - Construction, discussing: Regulation 12 - Tanks for Oil Residues (Sludge) Regulation 12-A - Oil Fuel Tank Protection Regulation 13 - Standard Discharge Connection Next, we'll look at Part B - Equipment, focusing on: Regulation 14 - Oil Filtering Equipment Finally, in Part C - Control of Operational Discharge of Oil, we'll cover: Regulation 15 - Control of Discharge of Oil Regulation 16 - Segregation of Oil and Water Ballast and Carriage of Oil in Forepeak Tanks Regulation 17 - The Oil Record Book, Part 1 By the end of this video, you'll have a solid understanding of how these regulations work together to prevent oil pollution and ensure cleaner operations at sea. Let's dive in and explore these critical rules that help keep our oceans protected!

What is MARPOL, and why is it so important? Today we'll dive into the MARPOL Convention and its Annexes to explore how they protect the marine environment from water pollution and other critical environmental issues. What is MARPOL, and why is it crucial for protecting our marine environment? MARPOL, or the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, is a global framework designed to tackle various types of pollution caused by maritime activities. In this video, I'll explain what MARPOL is, its history, and the key regulations outlined in its six annexes: MARPOL Annex 1 (Oil Pollution), MARPOL Annex 2 (Noxious Liquid Substances), MARPOL Annex 3 (Harmful Substances), MARPOL Annex 4 (Sewage), MARPOL Annex 5 (Garbage), and MARPOL Annex 6 (Air Pollution). We'll dive into how the MARPOL Convention was introduced to address environmental pollution, including water pollution, air pollution, and the growing issue of plastic pollution. You'll also learn how waste management and pollution control measures are implemented to protect our ocean and aquatic resources from degradation. Throughout the video, I'll discuss real-world pollution incidents that led to stricter regulations under MARPOL annexes, how ships are certified and inspected for compliance, and the laws for the environment that help preserve marine ecosystems. By the end of the video, you'll have a better understanding of the MARPOL annexes and how these regulations contribute to protecting the environment. Let's take steps together to reduce the pollution of water resources and make our maritime industry more sustainable. 00:00 - Introduction: What is MARPOL? 01:13 - Structure of MARPOL: Annexes 1 to 6 02:43 - Goals and Importance of MARPOL 03:10 - Certification and Ship Inspections 03:39 - Pollution Incidents, Regulation and Responsibilities 04:32 - Importance of MARPOL Compliance Other video: Marpol Annex 1 - Regulations 12, 12-A , 13 , 14 , 15, 16, 17 ??? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBpHtQDcYT8&t=57s #marpol #oceanpollution
