Requirements to the vessels are becoming stricter day by day. New conventions designed to protect the environment have entered into force or will take effect in the near future. The flag administrations are interested in the proper condition of the ships, for which various schemes of planned inspections are being developed. These inspections are designed to ensure that ships will avoid detention after PSC inspections.
