Shortsea cooperation

Charalampos Simantonis, chairman of the HSSA said: “The Hellenic Shortsea Shipowners Association is aiming to increase the quality of services provided and the awareness of its members in a very competitive European and international environment. We need to be more prepared for the challenges of the future regarding new environmental regulations, Port State Control, alternative fuels and other new technologies. We share many common views and values with RINA and this agreement will help our members by giving them better access to RINA’s expertise.”
