Vetting

The Vetting Service carries out the preliminary technical analysis on vessels prior to the appointing and hiring of the vessel. Conducted by Braskem Logistics within the area of HSSE (Health, Safety, Security, and Environment), this aims to mitigate and minimize the risks of transporting hazardous cargo (Liquids and Gases) via waterway.

The assessment of vessels ensures that the ships are ready for operation, preserving the safety of personnel and maritime facilities, and conserving health, nature, processes and the products being transported.

Analysis verifies institutional inspections (CDI, SIRE, the Classifying Company and Control over the State of the Port/Flag “PSC/FSC”), the naval technical knowledge of the team, information provided by agents and shipowners and also all the information available at various national and international bodies and databases dealing with navigation safety. The verification should address the following items:

• Compliance with national and international legal requirements.
• Compliance with SSMAQP best practices.
• Compatibility of the ship with port facilities and the intended operation.
• Ability to carry out the operation in accordance with the contracting conditions.

For further information on the mandatory criteria required for Vetting analysis, see the full document with the minimum Braskem Vetting requirements.
