50 ships in the spotlight This list was last updated in 2006 and handed over to the NGO Platform
on Shipbreaking: www.shipbreakingplatform.org
Greenpeace has selected 50 ships which might be scrapped soon. We have
asked the owners of these ships to declare that their ships will be decontaminated
before scrapping at Asian countries. Until that time Greenpeace will follow
and monitor these (and other) ships.
DWT: deadweight tonnage is carrying capacity of ship in ton (an oil tanker of 200 DWT can carry 200 ton oil) GT: gross tonnage is content of ship in cubic metres LDT: light displacement tonnage, almost similar to the nett weight of a ship, it is a general used measurement to calculate the scrap value of a ship
Remarkable ships Pacific Princess ('Love Boat') is on the Greenpeace list. More remarkable ships...
