By explaining the relationship between shipping and the environment, this guide helps crew and shoreside staff understand not only what environmental requirements are in place but why these regulations matter.
Global trade, energy security, food supply, and crisis resilience depend highly on shipping. About 90% of world trade is transported by sea, supported by a workforce of over 2.5 million seafarers on up to 74,000 vessels. Without shipping, national economies and societies cannot function, let alone thrive. Seafarers are key workers who underpin national prosperity and global stability by facilitating the movement of over 12 billion tons of cargo and well over 30 million ocean-going passengers annually. Yet their role remains largely invisible in political decision-making outside maritime ministries.
Extracted from the full Seafarer Workforce Report 2026, this Executive Summary provides the key findings of the global seafarer workforce supply and demand situation.
The 2025-2026 ICS Maritime Barometer Report is the latest full scale annual survey of risk, confidence, and impacts among maritime leaders.

The objective of this report is to identify and analyse key areas where the HKC and the EU SSR diverge. To do this, the report examines the legal texts of both frameworks, together with the corresponding IMO and EU guidelines and secondary legislation. Several recommendations to narrow the gaps between the frameworks are also given. The national implementations of the EU SRR and HKC as well as guidelines from other bodies such as the ILO are out of scope of this report.
International shipping faces tightening decarbonisation expectations while alternative fuels scale slowly and unevenly. In this context, onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS) is one of the few near‑term options able to deliver material tank‑to‑wake reductions on vessels that will continue operating on conventional or transition fuels through the 2030s
The Seafarer Workforce Report is the industry standard resource for those seeking the market intelligence needed to develop crewing and training strategies fit for the future.
Hundreds of vessels remain unable to transit the Strait of Hormuz and, in the event of a return to more normal navigation conditions, the movement of all those vessels within the Strait could represent a considerable navigational hazard. To avoid such an issue, the industry organisations of ICS, BIMCO, INTERCARGO, INTERTANKO, IMCA, and OCIMF have worked together to produce guidance aimed at assisting ships in transiting the Strait of Hormuz.
