SIRE
Since its inception, OCIMF’s Ship Inspection Report Programme (SIRE) has helped to support continuous improvement in the safety of the marine industry by providing a robust tanker risk assessment tool and vessel inspection report database.
The SIRE programme requires a uniform inspection protocol that is predicated by the following:
- Vessel Inspection Questionnaire (VIQ)
- Barges Inspection Questionnaire (BIQ)
- Uniform SIRE Inspection Report
- Vessels Particulars Questionnaire (VPQ)
- Barge Particulars Questionnaire (BPQ)
- These features have been established to make the program more uniform and user friendly and to provide a level of transparency unique in the marine transportation industry.
