Emphasis is placed on cargo stowage plans, preparation and execution of tank cleaning plans, matters related to loading, carriage precautions, and discharging etc. The team also oversee SIRE, CDI, and other third-party inspections to ensure tradability of vessel is maintained, and ships remain acceptable to relevant oil majors and charterers at all times.
Tank cleaning support
