Venue: Intership Navigation, 32, Miltonos Street, Limassol

The Nautical Institute Cyprus Branch organized an evening presentation on ‘Tanker Vetting – Latest trends’ and development by Captain Michael Quain, who shared his four decades of experience in the maritime industry, as Ship Master, Safety and Quality Manager, and as a SIRE Inspector.

The topic attracted a lot of interest from the marine community on the island, which was evident by the attendance of over 95 shipping professionals and students.

After introducing us to the current SIRE system, the qualifications for an inspector and the current layout of the Vessel Inspection Questionnaire (VIQ), Mike took us through a ‘successful’ vetting inspection.

Full report and copy of presentation available here for review.
