Electronic inclinometers for new bulk carriers and container ships

Electronic inclinometers for new bulk carriers and container ships

Lloyds Registry

Through Resolution MSC.532(107), it has adopted a new requirement (SOLAS Reg. V/19.2.12) that mandates the carriage of electronic inclinometers for new container ships and bulk carriers of 3,000gt and above. This will enable the Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) to determine, display and record the ship’s roll motion and provide critical information about operational stability. The regulations come into force on 1 January 2026.
