Seaquest Tanker and Vermont UM Bunkering were the latest bunker suppliers to have had their licenses revoked by the Maritime & Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) following checks in 2015 and 2016 respectively on the companies operations.
“MPA’s separate investigations into the two companies revealed discrepancies and wrongful declarations in the records kept on board their bunker tankers,” the MPA said.
“There were also separate incidences of transfers of bunkers between bunker tankers that were conducted without MPA’s approval.”
The authorities reminded bunker suppliers they had to “strictly adhere” to the terms of their licenses.
