NEWS

Sometimes the delays related to an incident become more expensive than the damage itself.
The Prompt attendance of the cases and complete technical reports issued within a reasonable time and with Independence and Impartiality criteria are our best presentation card.
The Club requires vessels to be surveyed to ensure that they meet the requisite standards for safety, construction, seaworthiness, cargo worthiness, crew management, and vessel management. Unless the vessel has recently undergone and passed a P&I Condition Survey by a marine Surveyor of AIM Control approved list, the Club will normally require a survey within 30 to 60 days of entry, depending upon the terms of the cover established by our Underwriting Department.
CONDITION SURVEY REQUIREMENT FOR TANKERS CARRYING HEAVY FUEL OIL (HFO) AS CARGO
As part of a concerted industry effort to ensure higher ship standards, the International Group of P&I Clubs is collectively implementing a new survey trigger for seagoing vessels of 10 years of age or more carrying HFO.
As a consequence, all sea-going vessels aged 10 years or more which have carried heavy HFO as cargo within the previous 12 months will subject to condition survey, unless:
• the vessel has undergone a P&I club condition survey during the previous 12 months; or
• the vessel has undergone a Special Survey during the previous 6 months; or
• the vessel has a valid Condition Assessment Program
If a vessel continues to carry HFO as cargo over a period of successive years, the Club is not obliged to carry out a survey every year. However, a survey will need to be held at least every three years after the first survey has taken place. It is at the Club’s discretion whether or not to undertake surveys on a more frequent basis
