Bunkering AT SEA option

5 votes

Hello

Some of our vessels don`t call to port for bunkering.
We hire another vessel(not registered in IMOS), bunker her for own consumption as well as for our vessel and then arrange bunkering AT SEA

We cannot arrange bunkering by using standard IMOS workflow...
1. Port where hired vessel is bunkered is missing in our vessel itinerary...and we cannot specify it in Bunker requirement
2. We need to have 2 dates : date of collecting bunker from supplier at port and date of our vessel bunkering.
3. We need to segregate bunker consumed by hired vessel and delivered onboard of our vessel

So if you can arrange required facilities it would be fine.

Adding to this:
We transfer bunker from cargo tank to deck tank at sea. Please make bunker lifting and forms able to support bunkers received using AT SEA port so we don't need to link it to a port call all the time.

Follow-up to the above: LPG performs bunkering at sea and allocate bunkers from cargo tank to deck tank.
This is treated as bunkering at sea by the Master (outside of ports).
After extensive testing with trying to create a new bunker form enabled for In port or At Sea we do not have any success with how IMOS behaves once the form is submitted into IMOS.
This is a feature that should be made available.
