During the loading operations at SBM, the loading rate dropped drastically at midnight and the terminal reported excessive back pressure on the shore pump.
There was no oil leak from the SBM this time but terminal suspected an obstruction in the line. A fine observation by onboard Chief Officer prompted Mooring Master to investigate the butterfly valve at the SBM which was observed to be almost closed. Soon after rectifying the situation by locking the valve in open position, the loading operations resumed and vessel completed loading promptly.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”” width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”12617″ alignment=”right” style=”vc_box_border” border_color=”grey” img_link_large=”yes” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”274 × 320″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”” width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]

Master and the entire crew were appreciated by the terminal and the charterers for their proactive actions and co-operation, professionalism and assistance rendered during the vessel’s stay at the SBM.

Our best wishes and thanks to the entire Synergy Team on board our vessels who continue to operate and manage the ships in a safe and efficient manner.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”12618″ alignment=”right” border_color=”grey” img_link_large=”” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”711 × 422″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”” parallax=”” parallax_image=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]
