Following successful trial inspections, OCIMF can announce the countdown to the release of the production edition of SIRE 2.0 has begun.

While currently in development, the new vessel inspection regime, SIRE 2.0, will more accurately report on the quality of a vessel and its crew.

OCIMF published the full set of questions that may be asked during a SIRE 2.0 tanker inspection, when its new Ship Inspection Report Programme (SIRE) inspection regime is implemented during Q2 2022.

2022 is going to be a year of focus on the environment. Following COP26, the message is clear; we need to act now against the climate change and for the maritime industry, IMO has already paved the way with the enforcement of strict environmental rules; nonetheless, maritime safety will always be a key concern for the industry.

OCIMF is overhauling its Ship Inspection Report Programme (SIRE) by introducing tablet-based inspections from Q2 2022.

The new SIRE 2.0 regime by OCIMF is expected to become operational in 2022. In an exclusive interview to SAFETY4SEA, Mr David Savage, who was responsible for the development and introduction of the SIRE Inspector Accreditation Programme back in 2000, shares his experience and outlines the key challenges associated with the new program which will incorporate the human element, marking a new era in the inspection program.

OCIMF has been working on the new SIRE 2.0 regime since 2017 and is expected to become operational in 2022. Until then, the current SIRE programme will continue to be updated and improved to incorporate the latest standards, best practice and regulations.
