Vessels operating in the US are faced with many layers of regulatory compliance issues. Obtaining the proper Certificate of Financial Responsibility (COFR) is another pre-voyage requirement. Presently, COFRs are required under OPA 90, California and Alaska for both tankers and non tankers.
ECM Maritime can assist the shipowner with all COFR submissions and subsequent renewals. Contact ECM at ecm@ecmmaritime.com
