Singapore Standard SS 600: 2008 – Code of Practice for Bunkering, is due for adoption in the latter half of 2009 and will combine the requirements of current standards SS CP 60: 2004 (‘Bunkering by Bunker Tankers’) and SS CP 77: 1999 (‘Bunker Surveying’).

The SS 600 standard sets out guidelines and procedures to ensure that the correct quality and quantity of bunkers are being delivered safely and efficiently.

Key changes in the new standard include the requirement to make a declaration to comply with the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulations to prevent air pollution from ships, to enhance sample integrity, and to standardise all bunkering documents to reduce disputes.

Besides obtaining a licence from the MPA to conduct bunkering business in Singapore’s port, bunker suppliers, craft operators and surveyors will have to comply with SS 600 when carrying out their operations. The standard will also serve as the technical basis for resolution in the event of disputes.
