Bunker fuels often have the largest impact on vessel operational cost. The operational cost of bunkers, especially with distillate, HFO & VLSFO remains a significant component of operational costs. There are numerous cases of malpractices such as bunker fuel shortage, bad quality, incorrect density, erroneous trim/list calculations, defective gauging tapes, faulty flowmeters, flawed strapping tables, magic pipes, and temperature manipulation.
The Viswa Group’s bunker quantity surveys prevent shipowners from falling into these tricks and traps set by suppliers. Our independent surveyors monitor the entire bunkering operation process and ensure that the total ordered fuel quantity is supplied.
Bunker surveys are usually categorized into three types such as standard, detective, and continuous surveys. The Viswa Group offers all kinds of bunker quantity surveys as per international industry standards and regulations.
