Stockholm Agreement – Past, Present & Future (Part I)Stockholm Agreement • February 21st, 2003
April 1, 2001 will mark the fourth anniversary of the Stockholm Agreement (SA), a period during which almost 80% of the Ro-Ro fleet in North West Europe will have been subjected to calculations, model testing and numerical simulations in the strife to meet these demanding new requirements. The experience gained has been invaluable in understanding better the problem at hand and is being utilised to shape new developments, likely to lead to more meaningful requirements. The North-South divide, however, continues to cause unrest, particularly at European level. Efforts to assess the status quo in North West Europe and use the information amassed so far as a means to predict the potential impact of introducing the SA in the South, led to a dedicated call by the Commission and to a contract being awarded to two closely collaborating teams, one at the Ship Stability Research Centre of the University of Strathclyde under the leadership of Professor Vassalos and one at the Ship Design Laborat

In anticipation of the forthcoming new harmonised probabilistic damage stability regulations during a period when existing deterministic instruments are still being enforced, namely SOLAS ’90 (globally) and Stockholm Agreement (in Europe), questions concerning multi-instrument compliance in newbuilding projects are being raised by industry and regulators alike. These are fuelled by uncertainties concerning the derivation of the SOLAS 2009, lack of experience in their implementation, but more importantly by the determinism that has prevailed in the industry to this date. The argument of mixing “oranges” and “lemons” when it comes to combining probabilistic and deterministic rules has given the impetus to writing this paper, aiming to demonstrate that the argument has no relevance, as both sets of regulations address statistical damages to a lesser or fuller extent.
