Classification society Korean
Register (KR) has signed an agreement with the Government of Bangladesh to
deliver services on behalf of the Bangladeshi flag administration.
Under the agreement, KR will conduct vessel surveys
and audits and issue certificates to Bangladeshi-flagged ships for compliance
with SOLAS, MARPOL, ITC, ICLL, and MLC.
KR said it has been working to obtain the
authorization to deliver statutory services to Bangladesh, anticipating an
increase in sea-borne transport between Southern Asian countries and
Bangladesh.
“We are delighted to receive the authorization to deliver statutory
services on behalf of the Bangladeshi government. This means that we will be
able to provide a wider range of sought after services…, adding value to their
businesses in Southern Asia, including those in India and Sri Lanka,” Lee
Jeong-Kie, Chairman and CEO of KR, commented.
The latest authorization brings the total number of
countries where KR is authorized to carry out ship survey and certification
work to seventy-seven.
