Being an almost landlocked sea, the Black Sea has a particular situation regarding water exchange and circulation. Moreover, the anthropogenic pressure and shipping related activities worsen the situation of this sea from the pollution point of view. The introductory part of the article presents the role of the ballast water system onboard ships in a few words. Then, the paper presents the environmental context of the Black Sea with the focus on the wind and waves, factors which can affect the ship stability. The Ballast Water Management aim is to reduce the risk to the environment, human health, property, and resources emerging from conveying harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens through ballast waters and sediments. The article also presents an evaluation of the ballast water discharged in the Black Sea basin, based on the available data regarding ships and goods traffic, with a focus on Constanta port and its satellites. The scoop also investigates the environmental factors which favor the circulation and spreading of invasive species from ports area to open waters. The paper analyzes the international and European Union regulatory framework regarding Ballast Water Management across the Black Sea basin and the implementation of these provisions by riparian states. The concluding section of the articles investigates and identifies the procedures, methods, equipment along with decision support tools used onboard ships and by ports authorities to diminish the negative impact of harmful aquatic organisms.
