A Guide to the Vetting Process – NEW 7th Edition
To overcome the lack of available information on vetting inspection systems, and to assist tanker crews and onshore personnel, INTERTANKO has published ‘A Guide to the Vetting Process’. INTERTANKO recommends that this revised and expanded 7th edition is a MUST onboard each vessel and in shore offices to assist tanker crews and personnel ashore to better understand, and to be better prepared, for vetting inspections.

Commentary on SHELLVOY 6
On 16 March 2005 Shell launched Shellvoy 6, their updated form of tanker voyage charterparty. Their stated intention is to include in the new form all current amendments issued since 1987 and to “clarify standard interpretations and practice.” Shell issued the new form together with an explanatory note and their standard template for recaps (both charter in and charter out) and accompanying notes as well as a note to brokers. The new charterparty form comprises three parts. Parts I and II comprise the main body of the form and Part III contains clauses for specific countries.

This commentary is not comprehensive as it is confined to the material new amendments not previously circulating in the market and focuses on Parts I and II of the new form. This commentary should be read in conjunction with INTERTANKO’s commentary on the Shellvoy 5 which is published in A Guide to Tanker Charters, which remains on point in relation to many of the clauses in Shellvoy 6.

Guide to Tanker Charters
‘A Guide to Tanker Charters’ is a successor to the well known volume ‘Tanker Voyage Charters’ that INTERTANKO has published in the past. INTERTANKO is again indebted to its Documentary Committee for producing this practical guide. This edition was published in 2001 and goes well beyond the earlier works as it is the first time that a comprehensive approach has been taken to both time and voyage charterparties for tankers. This publication has become a standard source of reference for those that are regularly engaged in fixing tankers or resolving charterparty disputes.
