Terminal Services

It is no longer economically viable to maintain staff on a 24-hour/365-day basis to cover every operational eventuality. Outsourcing, contracting-in, and contracting-out are options terminals can use in order to increase operational efficiencies of your business.

SGS has qualified staff that can assist with staffing problems and as a result, has developed comprehensive expertise in terminal operation. We have the capability to provide the following services to seagoing vessels and barges:

• Positioning of the ship
• Port control and vessel scheduling and berthing
• Establishing the transfer piping circuit
• Protection of access routes to the jetty and other areas
• Hose connection and jetty manning
• Safety checklist preparation
