The new SOLAS V/19-1 Long Range Identification and Tracking
(LRIT) regulation will enter into force on the 31-December
2008. The introduction of LRIT will enable the monitoring
of vessels at sea and provide an identification of potential
threats.
As an experienced supplier and installer of SSAS systems
and vessel tracking software, Aeoliki Marine can provide cost
effective solutions to meet the SOLAS requirements.
If shipowners and shipmanagers wish to test their fleet's
LRIT-compliance, we can arrange to carry out an Equipment
Compliance Test and issue the Test Report. In the event that
the existing equipment is non-compliant, we can supply compliant
equipment and arrange for the equipment installation through
our network of trained technicians.
APPLICABILITY : The Long Range Identification and
Tracking (LRIT) regulation will apply
to ships engaged on international voyages
REQUIREMENTS : Ships' LRIT equipment must be able
to be configured to transmit
minimum information, in an automatically generated position
report.
SHIPOWNER OBLIGATIONS : The shipowner's obligation
under the LRIT regulation is to ensure they have compliant
equipment.
EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEM : There is a likelihood that
existing Inmarsat C terminals
may not be compliant to the LRIT regulation.
COMPLIANCE TESTING : Testing
for LRIT compliance is straightforward and requires only
that a specific testing process is followed.
SHIP SECURITY ALERT SYSTEMS : SSAS
systems should not be used for cross-regulatory purposes
AUTOMATIC IDENTIFICATION SYSTEMS : There will be no interface
between LRIT and AIS.
To discuss the supply and installation of a dedicated stand-alone
transceiver, as the best solution for LRIT compliance, contact
