around the world, and at any given time a large proportion of them is on one of the 50-odd thousand ships comprising the global merchant shipping fleet.  Whilst most are loaded with innocuous cargoes, about 6 million containers a year are loaded with some form of dangerous goods (DG) cargo and appropriately declared under the requirements of the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code. Unfortunately, it is suspected that a similar number of containers are being stuffed with DG cargoes without appropriate declaration of their hazardous contents.<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cb1de6f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cb1de6f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The IMDG Code was developed to enhance the safe transport of dangerous goods by sea and to protect the marine environment. \u00a0Amongst other things, the IMDG Code contains advice on terminology, packaging, labelling, stowage, handling and emergency response.\u00a0<\/p><p>Whether on a ship or shoreside handling facilities, the first sign of something untoward will often be the discovery of noxious fumes, a leak of an unknown liquid, smoke, a fire or an explosion.\u00a0 Hyundai Fortune, Amsterdam Bridge, Maersk Honam, MSC Flaminia are vessel names synonymous with major incidents that arose from the carriage of IMDG cargoes. \u00a0According to the Cargo Incident Notification System (CINS) organization, almost a quarter of cargo incidents result from misdeclaration of cargo while a further third are due to poor or incorrect packing.\u00a0 The result is that crews can be caught unawares, containers were loaded in locations where effective emergency response if difficult or impossible, or were stowed immediately beside dangerously incompatible materials.\u00a0 The consequences of failing to properly declare DG cargo can be catastrophic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element
