Is MC 1342024 on your DNU list? Let me remind you that vehicle inspections on an insured vin does not mean ship! Not all DB's are overseas fake authorities. Some are real carriers with a real truck like FREIGHT LINK INC. If your DNU list does not have this MC on it, and your onboarding or vetting process does not tell you the necessary red flags to avoid this carrier or other carriers like this, remember Bannon says DO NOT USE.

The MSC Napoli incident in 2007 was a turning point for the maritime industry, emphasizing the significance of safety regulations. The introduction of the Verified Gross Mass (VGM) requirement under the SOLAS Rule marked a crucial step towards enhancing maritime safety practices. Incidents like the MSC Napoli highlighted the essential need for accurate weight verification of containerized cargo to ensure vessel stability and safety. Following such events, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) amended the SOLAS Convention to include the VGM requirement, effective from July 1, 2016. The SOLAS VGM requirement mandates shippers to provide the verified gross mass of each container before loading, promoting safe stowage and vessel stability. This regulation has led to significant changes in container shipping practices globally, emphasizing the use of calibrated equipment for precise weight verification. This shift underscores the industry's commitment to enhancing safety standards and securing global trade networks. #Logistics #Shipping #training Credits: Casual Navigation 🧭

Although the vessel has an approved STS Plan, there is a clause which exempts the club from any cover from liabilities in case the STS ops is proved not to be in accordance with OCIMF STS Guide. QUOTE STS OCIMF Clause: There is no cover for liabilities, costs and expenses hereunder unless any STS operation is undertaken in accordance with the latest edition, and any amendments thereof, of the OCIMF/CDI/ICS/SIGTTO Ship to Ship Transfer Guide. UNQUOTE DYNAMARINe registered shipowners are satisfying this requirement by default, since DYNAMARINe undertakes to assess not only vessel compliance but STS operation compliance, 24x7. What about your vessels? Are you confident that your STS operations comply with OCIMF STS Guidelines? #STS #SHIPTOSHIP #LIGHTERING #OCIMF #DYNAMARINe
