The Act was enacted in 1975 with the objective of clarifying the liability of shipowners in the event of oil pollution damage caused by oil spills or discharges from ships, and of establishing a system for guaranteeing compensation for oil pollution damage, thereby protecting victims and contributing to the sound development of the maritime transport of oil by ships. This Act ratifies and incorporates into domestic law the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage (1969) and the Convention on the Establishment of an International Fund for Compensation for Oil Pollution Damage (1971).
