In cases of pollution incidents, our team obtains as much information as possible from the agent , the Master and local authority and immediately alerts the vessel’s Insurer, P&I Club.
A surveyor is appointed to investigate the cause and extent of the pollution and if possible, taking samples from the vessel’s cargo bunkers and from the oil spill, assist the Master about the outcome of this incident by providing the necessary preventive actions to minimise damages.
In case of big pollution claim Master may need necessary legal assistance by appointing qualified lawyer and we can also assist on the choice of anti-pollution contractor and if needed we monitor clean-up operations, assessing necessity of means used and recording resources.
