The IMO has published a Claims Manual for the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage 2001 (the “Bunkers Convention”). The Manual provides practical guidance to national courts, claimants, shipowners, insurers, financial security providers and other interested parties on the application of the Bunkers Convention. It also aims to assist claimants in the preparation and submission of claims for compensation for pollution damage or preventative measures pursuant to the Bunkers Convention.
