A bunker quantity survey creates an independent factual reference around quantities on board or transferred during a defined vessel operation. The precise scope is always agreed for the assignment, but advance preparation helps the process run clearly and efficiently.
Confirm the operational scope
Share the vessel, location, expected operation, parties involved and the specific quantity question to be addressed. This makes it possible to confirm attendance, timing and reporting expectations before the operation starts.
Prepare relevant information
Have the available vessel and operation details ready, including expected timing, relevant quantity records and any practical access or terminal requirements. The surveyor can then focus on the agreed observations and measurement context.
Use the report as a factual reference
An independent report records observations within the agreed scope and at the time of attendance. It helps the parties use the same documented reference when they discuss the operation afterwards.
This guide is general information. The actual scope, attendance and reporting are always agreed in writing for the individual survey assignment.
