Mooring buoys found dragging at first attempt of berthing based on the above statement. 12. Mooring buoys is placed too far from the vessel especially on forward part where tension load throughout the length of mooring lines is susceptible for breaking and cut off. Repositioing of mooring buoys was done by the Terminal but it was placed in the same position as it is before. [3. Current in the area is strong especially at the time of Flooding and Ebb which happens every 6 hours. In the process of berthing, due to the effect of current, several attempts were made to secure ship's mooring lines to buoys by mooring crew with mooring boat. The delay in securing of mooring lines fo buoys may drift the vessel to shallow water. 4. Possibility of Mooring Buoys to drag due to effect of current and ship's weight. [5, BM Energy Mooring Buoy is located near the entrance of Sandwip Channel which affected by swell coming from the open sea. Due to this, the mooring buoys moves up and down with the ‘swell tensioning ship's mooring lines that may cause it to damage or breaking. * 6. The vessel is moored in mooring buoys and not in the fixed platform. Vessels movement is affected by current, wind and swell during cargo operation that may cause damage to cargo manifold and hose. we 7. Flooding current nas a greater effect 2 hours before the highest high tide reaching to an estimated speed of 5-6kts, Due to effect of current, shore cargo hose come to tension and the ship will have to adjust its mooring lines to lessen the tension of shore cargo hose, Tug assistance is needed to help the vessel heave its mooring lines. [8. Standby Tug left without informing the vessel due to weather warning for sheltering and tug assistance was not rendered during emergency pull out from mooring buoys, Due to sitong current and effect of wind, vessel nearly touched the mooring buoys. 19. BM Energy Mooring Buoy is located at Chittagong OPL. The presence of the vessel in Sandwip is not known to Port Control and Authorities due to tax issue. In the event of emergency, assitance from the port might not be rendered to the vessel. This Marine Protest was issued in the event of any damages, claims and losses that Imay arise and reserving the rights of my Owners / Charterers to take whatsoever actions they might consider necessary. * DA Ae weeny Wandin et smsinchage WRRS , Stren GU Wenk aa ond Geather- Wenig stanal ww 3 ¢1 Anclury As the dyaoalng- \Terminal Representative Mas Date: Mar, 10,2002, Rev.No. 0 ‘Original ; Ship's File Copy: To Company ‘STAR MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATES
