In this latest episode In Focus of the Seatrade Maritime Podcast, we speak with One Sea Secretary General Sinikka Hartonen about regulation in autonomous shipping.

Hartonen, a seafarer with experience in a range of shore-based roles across the industry, speaks about One Sea’s role in developing regulation for future technologies that may redefine shipping.

The current state of regulation for autonomous shipping is discussed along with its path forward, with a focus on safety.

Hartonen also speaks about the changes to One Sea itself since it was founded as a promotional body in 2016, and how the association will provide value now that the idea of autonomous shipping is well understood.
