August 23, 2023

We were assigned by the vessel’s managers to oversee the discharge of a cargo of fertilizer at Kakinada, India. Our primary responsibilities included attending and monitoring the full discharge process, performing both initial and final draft surveys, and actively safeguarding the interests of the vessel owners. Our objective was not only to ensure efficient operations but also to proactively mitigate any unforeseen issues that could arise during the cargo handling process.

Our correspondent in India, along with his experienced team of surveyors, played a pivotal role in the successful completion of this operation. Through diligent supervision and clear communication, they managed every aspect of the discharge, maintaining high standards of accuracy and professionalism throughout. Their on-the-ground expertise was instrumental in navigating operational complexities and ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements.

Throughout the discharge period, daily reports were generated and promptly shared with our principals, keeping all stakeholders informed and reassured about the progress of the operation. Our commitment to transparency and attention to detail helped facilitate a smooth and incident-free outcome. We thank our correspondents in India and their team for their cooperation and professionalism and we look forward to continuing to deliver reliable service and effective solutions for our clients worldwide.
