The IMO issued interim safety rules for hydrogen fuel on ships to support clean shipping, focusing on risks and crew training.
The International Maritime Organization has issued interim safety guidelines for using hydrogen as marine fuel, focusing on liquefied and compressed hydrogen systems on open decks, to support the shipping industry’s decarbonization efforts.
Developed with input from member states, industry groups, and classification societies, the rules cover safety aspects like hazard identification, leak detection, process flow, and crew training.
The guidelines, part of broader efforts including updates to the IGC and IGF Codes, aim to ensure safe handling of alternative fuels like hydrogen and ammonia, with further refinements expected through 2026 and 2027.
