Global Users
With the ever increasing volume of new regulations, we are regularly being asked to help our shipowner members interpret the rules they have to
comply with. To have all the statutory regulations and advisory IMO notices all in one place, regularly updated and easy to search KR-CON
has been extremely useful and has helped us in our daily work enormously.
