Vetting Inspection Feedback Forms

• Based on comments and cooperation with our
  membership, The INTERTANKO Vetting Committee
  developed a Standard Inspection Feedback form
  several years ago.
• The purpose of this form is to supply
  confidential information that can be used in a
  constructive statistical manner to assist in
  our ongoing discussions with Port State Control,
  Oil Major Vetting Departments, and establishments
  such as CDI and SIRE.
• Part 1 of the questionnaire relates to Commercial
  Vetting Inspections, (Part 2 relates to Port
  State Control inspections forms a separate
  presentation).
• We encourage INTERTANKO members to supply their
  vessels with a copy of this form with the request
  that the forms be completed for each inspection
  as appropriate.
• We also request that these forms be completed on
  each occasion that a commercial or PSC inspection
  takes place whether the results are positive or
  negative.

Members Additional Feedback to Consider

• It is accepted that interested parties wish to
  assure their corporate reputations and they have
  a right to expect their contractor to use their
  best endeavors to attain that level of
  servicebut the standard of observations needs
  to be maintained.

Additional Items to Consider

• Stay with the Programme - Ask the Question
• Utilise experience, keep observations factual
  not interpretations.
• Yes or No Answers by Inspectors
• As stand alone answers these can cause
  difficulties for the owner/operator if these are
  without qualification.
• The Benefits of the Close out Meeting
• - Posting of comments after the inspection, the
  number of
  
  observations/comments tend to
  increase once the final report comes out
• - This lowers morale onboard
• - Defeats the object of the close out
  meeting
• - Increases the possibilities of
  misunderstandings
• Observe the Terminal also not just the ship
• Critical aspect of the ship/shore interface
