Welcome to Loss Prevention

Our Objective: To promote and support the safety of life and the environment within the maritime industry

Loss Prevention

The Club’s Loss Prevention is fundamental for its members as it provides measures and controls to minimise risks and prevent incidents, accidents and claims on members’ ships. It also provides guidance on international and national compliance to protect the Club’s members’ ships, their cargoes, their crew and the marine environment against potential large losses. Loss Prevention has a very experienced in-house team of specialists with over 100 years of combined experience covering a wide range of ship segments and propulsion types.

2026 Pollution Fines in Turkey

Administrative fines for marine pollution in Turkish waters continue to be strictly enforced and are based on a vessel’s gross tonnage rather than spill quantity, environmental impact, or shipowner conduct. Under Article 20 of Environment Law no. 2872, fines are updated annually in line with inflation. The Directorate of Revenue Administration has set the 2025 inflation adjustment at 25.49%, as published in the Official Gazette on 27 November 2025. Accordingly, fines issued from 1 January 2026 will rise by 25.49% over 2025 levels.

Thanks to Kalimbassieris Maritime A.S. for the attached 2026 tariff bulletin.
