Why enhance safety at the terminals improve member efficiency by influencing terminals to ‘fix’ problems maintain industry safety record Terminal Safety - Terminal Vetting Database 3.2 Transparency – Information sharing

Level 2: Owners are encouraged to discuss “poor reports”with the Terminal. Level 3: The INTERTANKO Vetting Committee will assist in cases where the Terminal does not respond or responds poorly to the owner’s requests and will be tasked to follow-up with any terminals not responding to Owner’s observations.
