Venue: Athens, Greece
This one day Tanker Operator conference is sponsored by Ulysses Systems. Topics of discussion will include:
Is TMSA an additional paperwork, management and inspection burden on tanker operators, or will it reduce the amount of unhelpful paperwork, management and inspections is this a convergence or divergence of regulation?
How much will it cost?
Is this oil companies passing liability onto tanker operators?

Does TMSA dovetail with other industry initiatives such as the Intertanko striving for zero and the industry-wide KPIs project?
