Top Glory Marine (TGM) has launched a web-based Vessel Portal designed to save time for ship managers and vessel crews by simplifying the way waste disposal information is reported and processed.

The portal provides a direct online route for submitting disposal requests and weekly stock reports. By bringing vessel waste information into one online system, the Vessel Portal reduces email traffic and the need for follow-up questions, while giving TGM the information required to process disposal requests more quickly.

Vessels can provide waste information on a frequent basis together with their onward schedule. This gives TGM a clearer picture of both the vessel's requirements and its movements, allowing suitable disposal options to be considered earlier and helping ship managers avoid having to organise waste collection at short notice or at a less suitable port later in the voyage.

Silke Fehr, Managing Director of Top Glory Marine, said: "We know how much administration ship managers and crew already have to deal with, and waste reporting should not add more work than necessary. The aim was to make it quicker and easier: the vessel enters the information directly and we have what we need to start dealing with the request.

"Having that information earlier also means we can look ahead with the ship manager and work out the most practical point for disposal. That saves time for everyone and reduces the risk of having to arrange waste collection at short notice or at a less suitable port later in the voyage", she added.
