At the International Conference and Exhibition “International Transport Corridors: Connectivity and Development – 2025” (ITTC 2025), Director General of the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping (RS) Sergey Kulikov delivered a report dedicated to the role of classification societies in ensuring the reliability of the global fleet and the resilience of global logistics arteries.
Kulikov noted the fragility of global logistics arteries, emphasizing that a single vessel incident at key maritime chokepoints—such as the Suez or Bab el-Mandeb straits—can lead to global economic losses and a cascade of delays. In his view, the solution lies in shifting from reactive measures to preventive ones, where investments in the technical safety of vessels serve as direct investments in strengthening global logistics.
In conclusion, Sergey Kulikov stressed that by supporting a culture of safety and implementing innovations, classification societies act as key system integrators. In doing so, they create a reliable foundation for a safe, efficient, and responsible maritime logistics system.
