Guidelines for ships in polar waters, 2010 Edition
Vessels operating in the Arctic and Antarctic environments are exposed to a number of unique risks. Adverse weather conditions and the relative lack of good charts, communication systems and other navigational aids present challenges for sailors. The remoteness of the areas makes rescue or clean-up operations difficult and costly. Cold temperatures can reduce the effect of many components of the ship, ranging from deck machinery and emergency equipment to sea suctions. When ice is present, it may incur additional loads on the hull, propulsion system and appendages.
This publication should be of interest to maritime administrations, ship manufacturers, shipping companies, cruise and tour operators, educational institutions and others involved with the safe operation of ships in polar waters.
