On 5th December 2019, BIMCO held a one-hour long webinar session on the IMSBC Code, highlighting the general difficulties that shipowners encounter when transporting solid bulk cargoes. This webinar was hosted by Ms. Ai Cheng Foo-Nielsen, manager, Maritime Information department, which included some recommendations put forward by BIMCO that could help mitigate these difficulties. A short Q&A session taking questions from members was also included in this webinar.
BIMCO wishes to thank members who attended the webinar for the good feedback received. BIMCO has also received many requests to view this webinar which is available only to members.

Veritas Petroleum Services (VPS) publish regular Bunker Alerts based entirely on fuel samples and have kindly permitted BIMCO’s Members to access this information.
The Bunker Alerts are not intended to be an evaluation of overall bunker quality in the port or area concerned, but usually highlight a specific parameter within the fuel which has raised a quality issue.
All of BIMCO's most widely used contracts and clauses as well as advice on managing charters and business partners.
