Safety Checklist - Bunkering

This safety checklist is to be completed before the commencement of any bunkering operations. One copy is to be retained on board the vessel, one copy to be retained by the supplier and one copy forwarded to the Harbour Office, Truro. The checklist is to be completed and signed by both the suppliers of the bunkers and the receiver. Please note: the declaration at the end of the checklist needs to be signed. Adequate supervision of the bunkering operation is to be maintained at all times by a representative from the supplier and the receiver. On completion of bunkering operations, hoses are to be drained and blanks fitted before transfer to the supplying vessel. No fuel tanks are to be filled above 98% capacity.
