OPL services help ships achieve time efficiency and minimum deviation, low cost, and economies of scale.

From this stage onward, the port authorities will handle the ship’s navigational, berthing, loading, and unloading operations, taking into consideration its commercial and contractual status, that is, depending on whether the ship is a liner or a tramp.

After the ship has met the navigational and documentation prerequisites, the operations stage involves the vessel’s actual purpose of visiting the port, which may include loading, unloading, bunkering(supplying of fuel), victualing(provide food), and other operations.
