Seaview magazine: March 2016 issue

27 Mar 2016

Discover the state of the cruise market, the latest innovative technological advances and the ever-growing commercial opportunities

Welcome to RINA SeaView! This edition of RINA’s acclaimed annual magazine focuses on the thriving cruise market. Join us as we review the state of the international cruise market, the latest innovative technical advances and explore the ever-growing commercial opportunities in the Chinese market.

2015 was an exciting year as we saw an increase in the use of alternative design and subsequent classifications and certifications, as the marine industry continued to demand bigger and more environmentally-conscious ships, and as the first LNG cruise ships were classed by RINA.

However, the importance of safety, security, environmental responsibility, asset performance maintenance and the use of competent personnel remain key areas of focus for the marine industry. To respond to this clear market need, RINA further developed its asset management software solution InfoShip EGO.

We would also like to thank our customers Costa Group, Silversea Cruises, Fincantieri, and T.Mariotti for their contributions.
