VLCC For Fawley

[spanner]

Charles Eddie (9244867) may be making an appearance at Fawley, in June. Currently inbound to Rotterdam, then Fawley if orders don't change.

[spanner]

And Another, Saham to appear in the Future, I think will be a little while AIS showing leaving Gulf a week ago.

Hi Spanner,

thanks for the head's up, much appreciated

[Kelvin Davies]

Whatever the dates, we can guarantee 2 things:
1. The weather will be rubbish
2. VTS will show 23:59
Cheers
Kelvin

And I expect two will bw given as arriving on the same day......

On the other hand, the  tug contract for reefers at Portsmouth has been relinquished by Butchers, and taken over by Serco.  A couple of reefers have appeared on the QHM web-site - hopefully a sign of things to come

Charles Eddie is berthing tonight at Midnight, No rush she will be alongside for 4 days due to Maintenance in the Refinery.

[spanner]

Saham is pencilled in to berth Tuesday night, things may change

[spanner]

As I said the berthing was penciled in for Tuesday Night, It is now confirmed for Wednesday 1350

[ChasB46]

Spanner, thanks for the update.

[spanner]

Another for the next weeks/month NDT Eagle

[spanner]

oops meant DHT Eagle

[ChasB46]

DHT Eagle penciled in for the 13th 23.59. Guess that means any day after.

[spanner]

23:59 is just a time that is put on system to allow system to function, you will notice if it was a firm arrival time then it would be very busy at 2359 and 1159 every day.
 

[ChasB46]

Hi Spanner, we "locals" have learned the VTS shorthand of 11.59 and 23.59 to mean anytime/sometime, if at all. If I remember correctly, until a couple of years ago it was TBC or TBA on VTS website.

[Pier Master]

All, when the ETA for a vessel as a date only is input to the VTS system, it will default to 23:59 unless a specific time is stated; hope this helps.
