Why
Loss Control?
Used as
a cost savings tool it encompasses the planned and controlled
reduction in cargo losses caused by various factors associated
with the movement of crude and oil products.
There
are four reasons why a company hires a loss control representative:
- Ascertain
the load/discharge quantities
Petroleum liquid cargoes are of high value and it is imperative
that ship/shore figures are reconciled.
As your loss control representative we are there to make
sure your interests are protected. We lead the investigation
into reconciling or explaining any discrepancies.
- Ascertain
the quality of the cargo.
Sampling is a very delicate operation. We are there to ensure
that the proper procedures are accurately followed by the
independent inspector.
- Tank
inspection.
Onboard the vessel we verify that the cargo containment
meets the specs of the charter party to ensure that there
is no cargo contamination.
Ashore we verify that the cargo is directed into a suitable
shore tank and if co-mingled with a product already in the
tank, that the product in the tank is within specifications.
- Reporting
- creating a paper trail.
We document every detail of the operation for your records
to ensure that any challenge or claim that arises is easily
defended.
Our
Loss Control Services are tailored to your company’s
requirements, priorities and objectives.
