Dear Capt,
Good day.

Below noted with thanks and In case of fender rope failure during a (STS) operation due to adverse weather conditions, immediate and decisive actions are imperative. Firstly, abort the STS operation promptly, ensuring a safe separation distance between the vessels. Simultaneously.

Following this, establish a comprehensive plan for resuming the STS operation when weather permits. Conduct a meticulous assessment to gauge the extent of damage to both vessels, equipment, and cargo. Documenting these details is crucial for insurance claims and subsequent investigative processes. Furthermore, it enhances weather monitoring practices and sets clear criteria for STS operation continuation based on weather conditions.

Emphasizing that safety is paramount, adopting proactive measures to minimize risks during STS operations is very important.

Best Regards

Good day,

Kindly note that at 0818 LT today, own vessel’s forward breast line mooring tail parted alongwith 01 line from the MV on the bow.
Vessel replaced the mooring tail and made fast to the MV, however, the MV is unable to do the same, they have issues with their mooring winches, which was evident whilst mooring too.
Further to above, the forward most primary fender line too has parted and the both the fenders have drifted amidships with no buffer on the bow.
Wind is gusting over 20 kts, coupled with heavy rains.
In view of above, with mutual agreement with on board Mooring Master, the loading operation has been suspended and vessel will be casting off shortly, once the hoses are drained and disconnected.
Vessel will proceed for the STS running moor once the fender lines are repaired and weather subsides.
Shall keep you posted.

Thanks & best Regards,
