Equasis & Statistics

The Equasis information service is now recognised as an essential tool to help promote quality and safety in maritime transport. The service went live in May 2000, following the signature of a Memorandum of Understanding to establish the information system by the Commission, France, Japan, Singapore, Spain, the UK and the US Coast Guard. Since 2007, the Commission has been represented by EMSA in both the MoU and the governing bodies of EQUASIS. The system presents safety and quality-related information on the world"s merchant fleet with a particular focus on information on port State control inspections, class and P&I cover. The information is supplied by several port State control regions and various industry-based organizations. The data is accessible freely on the Internet.
