OCIMF released a new animation video to explain the rationale behind the new inspection programme and how it will affect inspectors and crew. The video gives an overview of inspectors’ use of tablet devices onboard and how human factors are being introduced into the process.
OCIMF has previously explained that the new SIRE 2.0 regime will roll out to industry in a phased approach. Until then, the current SIRE programme will continue to be updated and improved to incorporate the latest standards, best practice and regulations.
Developed alongside industry and the OCIMF membership, the new and updated Ship Inspection Report Programme, SIRE 2.0, will future proof the tanker inspection process in line with evolving risks, technology and expertise. The digitalised inspection programme will transform how inspections are conducted and will support industry efforts to continuously enhance safety.
Until then, the current SIRE programme will continue to be updated and improved to incorporate the latest standards, best practice and regulations.
