6. Berthing/Unberthing Carried out round the clock.

7. Mooring arrangement

The vessel is secured alongside with suitable ropes or wires which are to the

satisfaction of the Marine Operations Manager. A minimum of seven (7) mooring

lines must be used at each end of the vessel. The use of mooring lines of

dissimilar materials is not accepted. The use of wire springs, (with or

without synthetic fibre rope tails which shall not exceed 11 metres in length

overall and should have a breaking strain at least 25% greater than the

breaking load of the wire to which they are attached), is required.

Vessels must be able to deploy 3-2-2 mooring configuration using moorings of

similar material and nominal diameter both forward and aft, all moorings

should be fitted to mooring drums to faciliate appropriate load adjustment

throughout operations alongside.

For vessels fitted with wire rope moorings, these should be fitted with

synthetic tails and preferably deployed from a split drum arrangement.

Alternatively, low stretch synthetic ropes may be substituted for wire if the

elongation of the rope at 55% breaking load does not exceed 3% of the rope

length.

- Winches

Mooring ropes or wires shall only be fastened to the proper fixtures provided

for this purpose. Self-tensioning winches must not be used in automatic mode

and winch brakes must be kept hardened up except when moorings are being

tended.

- Wire Reeling

Mooring wires and lines shall be reefed on their drums in the direction which

enhances brake power, see diagram below.

8. No facilities for dirty ballast / slops.

9. Master to cable 72/48/24 hours notices

10. Vessel will berth alongside Jetty where Gangway and loading arms are

automatically given from shore. Berthing Side can only be known once

berthing is scheduled.

11. Master to contact ''Botas'' Terminal on Vhf Channel 16 or 22, for Pilotage.

12. Master to also contact on Vhf Botas Terminal immediately upon arrival

confirming time of arrival and time N.O.R. tendered.

13. Garbage fees are charged regardless whether the service is used or not.

Vessel to coordinate with the Pilot the disposal of garbage.
