Abstract
During the past decade there has been a growing interest in tackling the problem of vessels-based pollution in the Baltic Sea Region in both technical and administrative terms. In this study the role of ports in ensuring clean shipping was investigated. In order to enhance heuristics regards vessels’ compliance incentives, game-theoretic models of vessels interaction with port authorities were developed and illustrated on the case of the Big Port of St. Petersburg. The absence of effective and efficient monitoring in the port of St. Petersburg showed to be likely to undermine the environmental performance of vessels, both in the port and at high seas. The results suggest that the role of ports as loci of authority and sites of rule enforcement is crucial to the development of clean shipping in the Baltic Sea Region.
