The study considers problematic issues related to identification and prevention of ship pollution as a factor negatively affecting the volume and quality of maritime transportation. It is shown that one of the most dangerous for the marine environment forms of pollution from ships is oil pollution, which is characteristic not only for oil tankers, but also for other types of marine vessels. International legal sources of protection of maritime spaces from pollution from ships, including universal and regional ones, related to the water area of a certain maritime region are defined. Formal-legal analysis of the MARPOL 73/78 convention allowed to identify the main types of pollution from ships, which is a complex, multifaceted process with a certain variety of practical ways. The system analysis of the impact of prevention of pollution from ships on the overall effectiveness of the implementation of the concept of sustainable development in the world ocean has been carried out. The role of states in overcoming the factors determining the reduction of maritime container transportation in terms of establishing unified environmental rules of navigation has been determined. Proposals on improvement of international legal mechanisms for prevention of pollution from ships, including "dumping" and discharge of bilge water, extremely harmful and dangerous not only for the marine environment, but also for human life and health, have been developed and formulated.
