As well as inspection services we also provide Superintendency with the relevant training, experience and commercial awareness to oversee more complex operations such as: Blending Operations, Additive Dosing. Our Expeditors regularly sail with vessels from their sts position to port of discharge in order to provide further protection of the cargo for the client, and to advise of any events that could affect the cargo quantity or quality en route.
As in the case of Oil Tanker Supercargo Superintendents, United Marine Inspections Cargo Superintendents to vessels which come to west african sea loading terminals and with ship to ship operation.
United Marine Inspections Superintendents travel with tankers and arrive at discharge ports. They have their confidential briefings directly to the tanker owner or the charterer. They join the vessel immediately she arrives at the sea loading terminal or when longsiding has taken place to witness ship to ship loading or terminal loading and calculate the cargo requirements, vessels stress, trim, draft and cargo lifting capacity. They are then in constant contact with tanker owners and charterers to competently converse and co-operate with oil terminal superintendents.
United Marine Inspections Superintendents supervise the discharge of clean ballast, tank stripping, line stripping and all ballast discharge. They check all tanks alongside with the cargo inspection company and they supervise the full loading operation, after which a full set of cargo documentation is produced.
They will produce a full report and recommendations for owners or charterers and pre-plan the discharge of the cargo. Usually the cargo superintendent will attend the vessel at discharge port where again a similar exercise takes place but on this occasion the discharge, crude oil washing, tank stripping, line stripping, inert gas operation, time sheets etc are made for a discharging operation.
