Smoky vessel prosecuted 檢控排放黑煙船隻

23/10/2018

We thank the residents who took pictures and videos of container vessel 'MIRAMARIN' emitting dark smoke continuously for over 3 minutes while sailing up East Lamma Channel on 6 September 2018. The Marine Department has now sufficient evidence and initiated prosecution against the ship master. 

New laws comes into effect on 1 January 2019 whereby all vessels must use low sulphur fuel when sailing or berthing in Hong Kong waters. It is expected that the emissions of sulphur dioxide and respirable suspended particulates from Ocean Going Vessels will be reduced by 70%.


我們感謝多名薄扶林居民於2018年9月6日拍攝到一隻貨櫃船「MIRAMARIN」排放黑煙的相片及影片。該船隻在東博寮海峽持續排放黑煙超過三分鐘。海事處已掌握足夠證據正在準備檢控船長。

另外,由2019年1月1日起,所有船隻在香港水域內 (不論正在航行或停泊),都必須使用低硫 (low sulphur) 燃料。政府預期遠洋船隻排放的二氧化硫和可吸入懸浮粒子會減少約70%。
