Next year BIMCO will publish a standard contract for the use of autonomous ships
It will not initially include charter parties
November 6, 2020
BIMCO anticipated that the first version of the new contract standard will not, however, be valid for the use of ships in view of the fact that you are currently building autonomous ships specifically designed to serve on traffic dedicated throughout their operational life. The association has explained that, in fact, at present most companies ordering first-generation autonomous ships are not companies maritime transport services. BIMCO provides for therefore that the first autonomous ships will be managed by ship managers in quality of third parties who will not act only as managers ship's technicians, but will also provide the control centre and both ground and on-board personnel to operate The ship.
