Webinar on new General Agency Agreement
Overview
Join us on Thursday 5 April at 9.00 CET (10.00 CEST) to hear about the newly published BIMCO/FONASBA General Agency Agreement.
Agency appointments are often agreed over the phone or by email. But with ship operations becoming ever more complex, there is a growing need for a standard agreement that clearly sets out the services to be performed by the agents and the liabilities and responsibilities of both parties
A panel will discuss the new agreement and explain why agents and their principals would benefit from using it:
- John Foord - FONASBA President
- Han van Blanken - BIMCO Documentary Committee member
- Luis Bernat – Danish Shipbrokers Association
Sign up to watch this free webinar.
Viewers will be able to submit questions to the panel in advance. Send your questions to contracts@bimco.org.
The General Agency Agreement can be found on the BIMCO website
VPS Bunker Alerts
Veritas Petroleum Services (VPS) publish regular Bunker Alerts based entirely on fuel samples and have kindly permitted BIMCO’s Members to access this information.
The Bunker Alerts are not intended to be an evaluation of overall bunker quality in the port or area concerned, but usually highlight a specific parameter within the fuel which has raised a quality issue.
