FOR PORTS & MARINE TERMINALS
Ship/Shore Compatibility
Comprehensive ship/shore compatibility assessments in line with PIANC WG153B, OCIMF MEG4, and SIGTTO guidelines to ensure safe and efficient cargo transfer at LNG, oil, methanol, ammonia and CO2 terminals.
We provide thorough ship/shore compatibility studies to verify that visiting vessels can interface safely and efficiently with terminal facilities.
Our assessments cover manifold alignment, loading arm reach, gangway access, mooring patterns, and fender positioning.
By following PIANC WG153B, OCIMF MEG4, and SIGTTO guidelines, we ensure compatibility across a range of vessel sizes and types.
These studies reduce operational delays, improve berth utilisation, and maintain strict compliance with international safety standards.
The result is safer operations, improved efficiency, and reduced risk for both ships and shore facilities.
