The European Skipper’s Organisation (hereafter ESO) looks after the interests of the European private inland shipping entrepreneurs on the European level. Its General Assembly is composed of representatives of Belgian, Dutch, French, German and Polish inland waterway transport organisations.
ESO is founded in 1975 in Brussels to make the voice of the independent IWT entrepreneurs clearly heard by the European Commission, in those days the EEC. Since then, ‘Brussels’ has come to see inland waterway transport (IWT) as a serious and sustainable alternative.
ESO is the interlocutor of the European Commission (DG-MOVE) and the Central Commission for the Navigation of the Rhine (CCNR). ESO participates in many working groups, often established on demand of ESO itself.
Together with the collegues of the European Barge Union (EBU) a nautical-technical commission has been formed to advise the EC and CCNR.
January 2014 ESO established its Commission for Tanker Shipping and ADN, which has been acknowledged by UNECE.
Over the years, ESO has occupied itself in the interest of independant entrepreneurs with various matters, such as market regulation, fleet renewal, use of reserve funds, market observation, waterway bottlenecks, inland shipping promotion, crew regulation, training, accommodation, environmental problems, River Information Services etc.
February 2018 ESO was converted to a non-profit association (VZW) under Belgian law.
