Challenges to the Implementation of OPS Currently, none of the African seaports have developed and implemented an OPS system for use by seagoing ships. This status is attributed to various challenges, among them: The high cost of installing an OPS system; Unsteady mains power supply and inability by most ports to generate own electric power; Lack of a legal basis to implement an OPS system due to many African countries not ratifying MARPOL Annex VI; Unpredictability working with third party in the implementation; 11
