Year: 2024 Language: English Author: Britannia P&I Club Genre: Guide Edition: October 2024 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 5 Description: Britannia Loss Prevention Guidance Bunkering Precautions and Avoidance of Bunker Quality Disputes. Bunkering operations are pivotal in maritime logistics and present distinct risks and challenges. Each bunker operation is to be regarded as a unique event which possesses its own individual risks. Therefore, shipowners must conduct a comprehensive risk assessment of every bunker operation as part of their Safety Management System (SMS) before starting. Disputes arising from bunker quality are multifaceted, often hindered by insufficient evidence including representative samples and fuel analysis reports. The ISO 8217 specification may not adequately detect fuels with unusual compositions or contaminants until issues arise during usage. Possible issues may include, but are not limited to, blockage of fuel filters, overloading of purifiers, sticking of fuel injection pumps, broken piston rings, and ultimately, engine shutdowns. It’s important to note that this guidance offers high-level, generic information and shouldnot be considered exhaustive.
