Abstract

The oil pollution compensation system in China was established late, and the design of the legal system is not perfect, which exposes many problems in the practice of claim settlement. This paper analyzes the present situation and problems of compensation mechanism for oil pollution damage from ships in China, and draws lessons from the legislative experience of Canada and the United States, and puts forward some suggestions for improvement. The specific contents include the legislative status and existing problems of compensation for oil pollution damage from ships in China, the relevant legislative status of representative countries, the comparison of three major international compensation systems, and the legislative choice and specific system suggestions of China. By using the method of literature analysis, this paper systematically analyzes the legislative status, advantages and disadvantages of compensation for oil pollution damage from ships in various countries through the study of relevant legal documents and practical cases at home and abroad. Through comparative study and drawing lessons from international experience, it is suggested that China adopt a dual-track compensation mechanism.
