TORONTO, Nov 4 (Reuters) – Canada’s Liberal government will this year deliver on its pledge for a moratorium on oil tanker traffic along the northern coast of British Columbia, CBC News reported on Friday. Transport Minister Marc Garneau confirmed the plan in an interview with CBC Radio’s “The House,” the broadcaster said on its website. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last year instructed Garneau to formalize the ban on oil tanker traffic, effectively slamming the door on a pipeline project that was already facing massive development hurdles. The ban is one of several obstacles to the building of Enbridge Inc’s Northern Gateway pipeline, which would carry oil sands crude from near Edmonton, Alberta, to a deepwater port at Kitimat, British Columbia, for export to Asian markets.

LOADING/UNLOADING OF VESSELS’ OPERATIONS BY THE USE OF ADVANCED TECHNOLOGICAL MEANS It goes without saying that vessels consist the most cost efficient way of transportation. However, is that enough for such option of goods transportation for a company? How safe are the transported commodities and by which tools, such safety of cargoes transportation is ensured? We have met Mr. Spiros Malliaroudakis, Managing Director of S.A. Malliaroudakis Maritime (UK) Ltd., with whom we have discussed about the Loading Instrument "Multiload© for Windows", which contributes to more efficient, quicker but also safer loading/unloading operations.   As Mr. Malliaroudakis explained to us, the loading/unloading operation of a vessel is particularly crucial for the safety not only of the cargo but also of the ship herself. Therefore, there is strict regulation for stability and strength aspects. The impression generated around the vessels’ strength given their considerable vo
