BIMCO aiming to complete CII and ETS Clauses for publication in May

Published: 28 April 2022

Work continues apace to prepare two important carbon clauses for publication in May. The most of challenging of these tasks is the development of a CII Compliance Clause for Time Charter Parties. Technical, commercial and legal experts have been meeting weekly for many months to try to find a practical solution for owners and operators operating under the new CII regime. As of 2023, ships will enter an annually narrowing emissions “corridor” where owners and charterers will need to work closely together to ensure continuing compliance. The BIMCO CII Clause will need to balance the operational restrictions imposed on owners by the low carbon regime against allowing charterers to optimise the ship’s commercial activity during the charter period.
