The Convention & Legislation Department was established on September 2010 in an effort to provide a reference for all statutory related news. Our ultimate objective is to provide answers for all statutory question and problems for both our surveyors and our customers. With this objective in mind and considering the scope of work we deal with, we have established 3 technical teams, the Safety team, the Pollution Prevention Team and the Stability, Loadline and Tonnage(SLT) Team, to provide answers for the most common questions and ambiguities regarding conventions and their related codes. The outcomes of the work of these committees are published as CLD Technical Information and Circulars. Moreover, the CLD department strives to keep our customers up to date with the latest amendments on statutory topics at IMO and PMO, the outcomes of latest IMO Committees and Sub-Committee Meetings, the latest circulars issued by PMO and IMO, and the interpretation of statutory topics. CLD’s work since its establishment has got the recognition of our customers and specifically PMO and has brought us several honors for our contribution to the maritime society in Iran.

CLD activities basically lie in the following areas:
