BW LPG Recycles ‘BW Helios’ In Compliance With Hong Kong Convention
CEO of BW LPG, Martin Ackermann confirms that their LPG carrier the 1992-built BW Helios arrived at a certified, Hong Kong Convention applicable, a recycling facility in India on 21st January 2019. “At BW LPG, we are firm supporters of the Hong Kong Convention on the safe and environmentally sound recycling of ships, although many countries have yet to ratify the Convention. We go to great lengths – some which go beyond the Convention – to ensure we are fully compliant and that we are recycling at a facility that provides safe and environmentally friendly disposal of waste, which have all been audited, and provides safe working practices for its work force; particularly that no children are employed,” he said. For recycling the 57,160 CBM BW Helios (IMO 8912182), BW LPG identified the Atam Manohar Ship Breakers facility in Alang, India. The yard was fully inspected and certified by an International Class Society in Mar 2017, meeting the requirements of IMO Resolution 210/63, 2012 guidelines for the safe and environmentally sound recycling of ships, as per the Hong Kong Convention.
