As a specialized agency of the United Nations, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) is the global standard-setting authority
for the safety, security and environmental performance of international shipping. Its main role is to create a regulatory framework for
the shipping industry that is fair and effective, universally adopted and universally implemented.
IMO measures cover all aspects of international shipping – including ship design, construction, equipment, manning, operation and
disposal – to ensure that this vital sector remains safe, environmentally sound, energy efficient and secure.
Energy efficiency, new technology and innovation, maritime education and training, maritime security, maritime traffic management
and the development of the maritime infrastructure are all issues underpinning IMO’s commitment to provide the institutional
framework necessary for a safe, green and sustainable global maritime transportation system.

The Code of Safe Practice for Ships carrying Timber Deck Cargoes, 2011 (2011 TDC Code) was adopted
by resolution A.1048(27) at the twenty-seventh session of IMO’s Assembly in November 2011. This Code
revises and updates the previous Code adopted in 1991 by resolution A.715(17). The 2011 TDC Code is
non-mandatory and applies to all ships of 24 m or more in length carrying a timber deck cargo. The Code
aims to ensure that stowage and cargo securing arrangements for timber deck cargoes enable a safe yet
rational securing of the cargo so that it is satisfactorily prevented from shifting. 2011 TDC Code also
includes alternative design principles, taking into account the acceleration forces cargo may be subjected to
throughout the voyage.

OSV Chemical Code (2018 Edition)
The Code for the Transport and Handling of Hazardous and Noxious Liquid Substances in Bulk on
Offshore Support Vessels (OSV Chemical Code), has been developed for the design, construction and
operation of offshore support vessels (OSVs) which transport hazardous and noxious liquid substances
in bulk for the servicing and resupplying of offshore platforms, mobile offshore drilling units and other
offshore installations, including those employed in the search for and recovery of hydrocarbons from the
seabed.
The basic philosophy of the present Code is to apply standards contained in the Code and the International
Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk (IBC Code) and
in the International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk
(IGC Code) to the extent that is practicable and reasonable taking into account the unique design features
and service characteristics of OSVs.

Nairobi International Convention on the Removal of Wrecks, 2007
(2008 Edition)
The Nairobi International Convention on the Removal of Wrecks, 2007 provides the legal basis to enable
States to remove, or to have removed, from their coastlines and waters around their coasts, wrecks
posing a hazard to the safety of shipping or to the marine environment. To achieve these objectives,
the new treaty includes provisions on the reporting and locating of ships and wrecks and criteria for
determining the hazard posed by wrecks, including assessment of damage to the marine environment.
It also regulates measures to facilitate the removal of wrecks, as well as the liability of the owner for the
costs of locating, marking and removing of ships and wrecks. The registered shipowner is required to
maintain compulsory insurance or other financial security to cover liability under the Convention.
