The Project implements an innovative risk-intelligent, holistic approach.
• Innovative:– looking at ‘value’ arguments: both qualitative and quantitative,
– benchmarking is undertaken across a broad range of industries with similar issues,
• Holistic:– the analysis of ship dismantling combines social, legal, technical,
environmental and economic drivers and constraints,
• Risk intelligent:– the most appropriate, validated, risk and economic tools and models are
applied to each individual steps of dismantling chain

DIVEST will deliver pragmatic, pertinent and immediately useable output.
• A set of validated risk and economic models that will cover the entirety of the ship dismantling space,
• An information exchange accessible to the stakeholder community,
• A set of policy recommendations on the optimum recycling facility and process,
