MTPQ2 Release

 
The Ship-Shore Interfaces Expert Group are pleased to announce the release of the new MTPQ2 templates into production on 22 November 2021.
 
This release includes the following changes:
 

  • A separate Port Index has been created to reduce duplication against terminal particulars and provide a central source of Port data, providing an index of terminals at each port.
  • The reduction in questions is designed to reduce the management burden upon terminal operators and to reduce the duplication of questions now included in the Terminal Information Booklet.
  • The Vessel-Berth Comparison Tool (VBCT) has been developed that compares jetty published MTPQ2 data uploaded within MTIS, to vessel’s published HVPQ data from the SIRE database and provides a comparison output. 

 
Existing MTPQ1 data has been migrated across to the new template where possible, but Terminal Operators will need to populate the following information prior to publication of the MTPQ2:
 

  • Terminal and Berth - Type of Product Handled – currently stored as free text in each Berth document.  This is now a multiple choice tick box selection that determines which questions are available in the Berth Questionnaire.
  • Berth - 2.2 Frequency - next survey is due (Date of latest hydrographic/bathymetric survey from which transit depth has been determined) this is currently stored as days, but this should now be stored as years.
  • Berth – 3.3  Frequency - next survey is due (Date of latest hydrographic/bathymetric survey from which alongside depth has been determined) currently stored as days, but this should now be stored as years.
  • Port Authority Contact Details – this is currently stored in each terminal document as free text.  This is now part of a central Port record and should be updated accordingly.

 
In order for the MTPQ2 to be republished, Terminal Operators will need to;

•             Upload a TIB document – see guidelines in the Terminal Attachments grid.
•             Select ‘Type of Product Handled’ at both the Terminal and Berths.
•             Complete all mandatory Berth questions.
•             Republish the MTPQ2 when all mandatory information is complete.
 
For further information, please view the updated MTIS user guide available in the the Resources area of your MTIS account.
 
Regards,

Request: Seeking cooperation with Tank Terminal Operators

-
Dear All, In this new year 2017 we are looking to establish cooperation with tank terminal operators / companies which allow us to develop training material in house at their location. Our plan is to film and photograph (digitalize) technical details and day to day operations to enhance our training quality and produce digital content on all aspects of tank terminal operations. The idea is to create an on-line learning platform which would be beneficial for everyone working in the Tank Terminal and Tanker Shipping Industry. It would speed up access to information to anyone interested which would certainly enhance the three OCIMF levels of competence: Awareness, Knowledge & Skill. Let us know? You can ask questions or leave remarks below? Thank you, The TTT Team

Stoc Expo Rotterdam 2018

Drinking Water to Fuel our Future Economy. Next week the Stoc Expo Conference and Exhibition will be organised in Rotterdam, Holland. An impressive number of internationally operating companies, organisations and people related to the Bulk Liquid Storage industry will attend this important yearly event. What I wrote two years ago on the future of bulk liquid storage business, I ‘ d like to share with you today. I developed a method to research future trends, predictions on longevity or continuity of industrial sectors and wrote and presented these trends as I do believe we have arrived at a tipping point. Bulk Liquid Storage is a part of- and dependent on- a hydrocarbon based economy consuming non renewable fossil fuels. When I am asking the question; does this industry harm the environment, social cohesion or human and non human life, I cannot say no. Sure, the products we all use made from these fuels and chemicals improve our luxurious lifestyles, but are they sustainable? You c...

Continuous Improvement by TTT

Dear all, What we are now offering is a so-called continued learning plan. We combine our courses with consulting services. This means that a mix of relevant courses can be adjusted to precisely fit your needs. This will benefit your people and company tremendously because no time or money will be wasted. It works as follows: a pre-scan on awareness, knowledge and skill will be performed to synthesize the exact need of schooling for each individual. This includes not only operational excellence, but HSE and Risk Management as well. It will touch on Human Factors, individual motivation and commitment by Systems Theory. When people learn how to think in relationships, interdependence and interconnectedness, a better view can be formed to prevent incidents and risks to achieve sustainability for both the company and all stakeholders.
