CLC Bunkers
To meet the 21st November deadline for Bunker Certificates, it is important that application forms and bluecards for each ship, and the fee (cheque or credit card form) are couriered in one package to the CLC Bunkers team address, to arrive by 31st October 2008.
Any package arriving after that date is not guaranteed to be completed by 21st November 2008.
UK ships will be given priority in all cases. All packages containing UK flagged ships must be labelled clearly with 'UK SHIPS' on the outside.
Renewal of certificates for one year from 20th February 2009 to 20th February 2010 will start from 1st December 2008. Please mark your packages 'RENEWAL.'
Under the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage 2001, all ships over 1000GT entering or leaving a UK port are now required to maintain compulsory insurance against liability for bunker oil pollution damage.
