Bunker Quantity Survey in Lomé, Togo

Vals Marine Survey Company recently completed a Bunker Quantity Survey (BQS) at Lomé Port, Togo, covering two different fuel grades.

The survey was conducted in accordance with the agreed scope and established bunker measurement procedures. Our attending surveyors carried out the required measurements, reviewed the relevant vessel documentation and verified the quantities for each fuel grade independently.
The entire operation was completed smoothly and without any discrepancies or operational issues.
When conducting a Bunker Quantity Survey involving different fuel grades, careful identification and segregation of the respective products is essential. Each grade must be properly measured, documented and reconciled to ensure that the final figures accurately represent the quantities physically available onboard.

Our team maintained close coordination with the vessel’s crew throughout the operation, ensuring that the measurement process was carried out efficiently and that the relevant survey documentation was properly completed.
