Tanker industry from the shipowners and safety perspective INTERTANKO Tanker industry from the shipowners and safety perspective Johan Gahnström
INTERTANKO Members Lead the continuous improvement of the tanker industry’s performance Strive to achieve the goals of: ZERO fatalities ZERO pollution ZERO detentions Deliver the highest quality services to meet their stakeholders’ expectations Promote the availability and use of personnel with the best marine skills and competencies

Human element INTERTANKO has developed TOTS. This is currently going thru a major upgrade and a name change. This has proven to be a successful way forward for our members. OCIMF has Marine Terminal Operator Competence and Training Guide (MTOCT). This is a very good starting point
TYPICAL TIME CHARTER VETTING CLAUSE The Owner acknowledges that to effectively trade the Vessel acceptance of the Vessel under the SIRE Vessel Inspections Programme by the major oil companies and under the CDI Vessel Inspections Programme is required. It is a further condition of this charter party that on the day of delivery, the Vessel has been reviewed and accepted by the major oil and chemical companies as required and shall, to the best of Owner’s knowledge, remain acceptable to 3 (three) of the following oil companies at all times: BP; Chevron; Exxon Mobil; Phillips66; Shell; Statoil; Total;
Vetting VIQ (Vessel Inspection Questioner) Inspections not longer that 6 months between. SIRE (Ship Inspection Report Exchange program) Vessels not older than 20 years (25 in some cases) Crew Matrix TMSA (Tanker Management Safety Assessment)
INTERTANKO members Member tankers are in average 11 years old Tankers Inspected regularly with an international standards from oil majors and IMO All crew have internationally recognized certificates to trade. On top of that, more training Owners offices are regularly inspected
Gains from Vetting The standard of tankers has drastically increased Raised the bar very much on the lowest acceptable performance. No major spill for many years Decrease in accidents and incidents But with some frustration to the owners as well admittedly.
Terminals Generally, ageing assets today Varying background, training and education on those working in terminals Standard on equipment, HSE equipment, terminal itself varies hugely Inspections on terminals exist; not frequent not all oil majors do them, not one system. Not an exchange program to learn from others as (SIRE) not a TMSA.
Feedback from Members Assurance to end users on terminals capabilities. Terminals should not invent own vessel inspection schemes and not inspect themselves, work with OCIMF/INTERTANKO to enhance VIQ if needed. Unification of terminal safety standards ISGOTT – Ship-Shore safety checklist - A new appendix for masters assurance on terminals capability related to emergency preparedness
Environment Waste reception facilities. That at all time comply with MARPOL and with fair charges Vapour return. All vessels are equipped. We would like to see that all terminals install them and use them
Cyber Security Cyber security is important threat Maritime carriers are global and mobile operators International approach more fitting for shipping sector ISPS code requests vessels (and terminals) to take account of all security threats, including cyber security Guidance developed by BIMCO, ICS, INTERTANKO and INTERCARGO – accepted by IMO (MSC.1/Circ.1526 )
– some future wishful thinking –
Smarter systems E-navigation is coming. When upgrading your systems, prepare them to be able to send and receive real-time data to and from the tankers. OCIMF will start to require linked ESD systems onboard ships in the future. We hope that terminals will have a system to connect to. Hydrodynamics and bathymetric data around the terminals that can be transferred. Standard for data format (IHO S-100)
Compatibility studies In the future we forsee that we can see all the loading/discharging equipment using the E-nav technology. We could do mooring/compatibility studies before arrival... On our planning ECDIS/E-Nav display onboard, or you ashore Ensure your data, if updated can be put into a standard data format when available. (xml based/IHO-S 100)
Finally Human element and training is very important We will se much more data sent to/from ships in the future, be prepared. Cyber sequrity is becoming a concern for the industry - build in protection Standardisation of terminals, to some extent
