Forms and checklists sea shipping
When calling on the port of Rotterdam, vessels are required to complete nautical forms. Below is a summary of the nautical forms and checklists. Completed forms should be e-mailed to the Harbour Coordination Centre.
Please note: Submit requests for repairs and berths outside the Petroleumhaven in good time!
The Harbour Master's Division makes an urgent appeal to all agents to submit timely requests for repairs and berths outside the Petroleumhaven. Too often, we find that these reports and requests are submitted shortly before the activity is due to start. This causes unnecessary delays and undesirable situations in the port and for your clients.
In the coming period, there will also be a limited inspection capacity during the night at the Harbour Coordination Centre. By submitting reports and requests in a timely manner, we can avoid the risk of the inspectors being unable to carry out an assessment at night. Thank you for your cooperation.

Bunkering
When bunkering marine fuels to sea-going vessels, it is possible that the batch of fuel supplied will fail to meet the required specifications. In that case, the fuel will be unloaded again, or in other words de-bunkered. In case of serious deviations from the specifications, waste products could be involved. It is important to find out quickly if the batch of fuel is still fit for use. The de-bunker request form helps the competent authorities to advise on the matter. When pumping the fuel back, a special safety checklist must also be completed.
