Risk of oil spillage on board

05.02.2016
Dear Freight Customers!

We would like to pay your particular attention to the important issue of safety on board our car decks in relation to oil spills. Recently have been registered some incidences of fuel leakage from over-filling tanks during the sea voyage. Many drivers fill their trucks up with diesel in Poland just before embarkation and it may cause the spillage while crossing due to expansion of oil in the tank on heating or just due to inaccurate filler cap. The effects of spillage may be very serious, including the risk of fire or accidents.

We kindly ask you to advise your drivers not to over-filling their trucks during bunkering in order not to risk of over flooding the deck.

Please be informed that the customer will be charged in case of spillage, cost of such service is approx. 250€.
