1. E-navigation in Artic waters
Challenges seen from class society

2. Facilitate the workload onboard and for shore-based functions.
E-navigation in short
E-navigation is a concept intended to secure simplified and coordinated electronic handling of information onboard and ashore in order to:
Increase safety of navigation and the protection of the environment in coastal zones and at sea.
Contribute to higher efficiency and reduced costs in the maritime sector.
Facilitate the workload onboard and for shore-based functions.
- Provide a basis for improved contingency services

3. IMO e-navigation current status
17 April 2017
IMO e-navigation current status
The NAV 59 Sub-Committee have agreed to work further with five main e-navigation solutions:
improved, harmonized and user-friendly bridge design;
means for standardized and automated reporting;
improved reliability, resilience and integrity of bridge equipment and navigation information;
integration and presentation of available information in graphical displays received via communication equipment; and
improved Communication of VTS Service Portfolio

5. Challenges in northern/artic areas
Communications in North/artic areas
What kind of services are needed?
What kind of communication is available?
Will e-Nav services adapted to communications means be available?
Equipment adaption to the environment
Type approved equipment is normally tested to -25 degrees Celsius for exposed equipment
Testing to lower temperatures?
Other tests in low temperatures (vibration, shock, etc.)
Ice/de-ice
Will equipment like e.g. communications and position equipment function with ice layer?
Do the equipment need de-ice means?

6. Notations
Apply to vessels occasionally or primarily intended for navigation in waters with ice conditions.
Several notations
ICE-XX
POLAR 10/20/30
DAT(-X°C)
Icebreaker
Winterized

7. Notations cont’d Deicing and anti-icing systems (Sec.4) DEICE/DEICE-C
Category I
Navigation
Steering
Propulsion
Anchoring
Lifesaving
Category II
Decks and superstr.
Helideck
Railings
Cargo deck (DEICE-C)

8. Notations cont’d Clear view requirements Wipers iaw ISO 17899
