MARITIME TERMINAL
INFORMATION
SYSTEM (MTIS)
OCIMF has developed the MTIS system with the aim of filling
the gaps that exist in the international standards for terminals
and also that would complement the similar work already
being done by OCIMF and its members to improve ship safety
and environmental protection.
Specifically, the consolidated system embraces:
l Marine Terminal Particulars Questionnaire (MTPQ)
l Marine Terminal Management and Self-Assessment (MTMSA)
l Marine Terminal Operator Competence & Training (MTOCT)
Este
programa
incluye el
desarrollo de un
sistema consolidado
de seguridad que abarque
las propiedades físicas de los
terminales, los sistemas de gestión y la
formación del operador.
La posición confiable, neutral y totalmente
independiente de OCIMF dentro de la
industria global es esencial para capturar e
intercambiar información y mejores prácticas
encaminadas a elevar los estándares de
seguridad y protección ambiental.
El compromiso de los Miembros con la
transparencia y la voluntad de intercambiar
conocimientos técnicos y experiencia práctica
generará una serie de beneficios del Sistema
de Información del Terminal Marino del
OCIMF, que incluyen:
· Normas de seguridad más estrictas, que
conducirán a menos incidentes, lo que a su
vez repercutirá en el tiempo en costos de
seguros más bajos
· Mejora de la eficiencia operativa a través
deMarine Terminal Information System
(MTIS)
· Mejora de la eficacia y la eficiencia, con una
mejor difusión de la información terminal
· Un enfoque riguroso, de autoevaluación
y revisión basada en la mejora continua de
la gestión de la seguridad · Personal mejor
capacitado y motivado · Un proceso seguro
que es propiedad y gestionado por los
operadores de terminales que mantienen el
control total sobre sus datos. Fuente: www.

Marine Terminal Particulars Questionnaire (MTPQ)
The ultimate aim is to compile a comprehensive database of
relevant information for all of the world’s 3,500+ terminals
– from the hardware available, to berth measurements and
transfer rates. The Marine Terminal Particulars Questionnaire
(MTPQ) was developed to collect this information in a common
format using consistent units of measurement. By comparing the
information generated by the MTPQ with SIRE vessel data, vessel
programmers, schedulers and operators will be better able to
assess the compatibility of ships and terminals and ensure safe
operation and environmental protection.
MTIS MTPQ was launched October 2011 and is being completed by
more and more terminals each week.
Marine Terminal Management and
Self Assessment (MTMSA)
OCIMF members have found the Tanker Management and Self-
Assessment (TMSA) guide a very practical and valuable tool
for driving up safety standards and encouraging continuous
improvement – some 90% of tanker operators use it, including
all the oil majors. As a result, OCIMF has revised, updated
and improved its existing Marine Terminal Baseline Criteria
publication to make it consistent with the TMSA format. This was
published in September 2012, and is called the Marine Terminal
Management and Self-Assessment (MTMSA); the old Marine
Terminal Baseline Criteria will be gradually phased out and
replaced with this new tool.
MTMSA provides the best practice and key performance indicators
against which terminal operators can assess the effectiveness
of their management systems for berth operations and the ship
to shore interface. With a self-assessment culture at the heart of
OCIMF’s approach, members can use the MTMSA guide to develop
their own internal review methodology. They can then use the
internal review results to continuously improve their safety
and environmental performance and to identify and share best
practice around their terminal network.
Members can also submit their assessment report to OCIMF’s
terminal database and choose how widely the information should
be shared.
Marine Terminal Operator
Competencies and Training (MTOCT)
The Marine Terminal Operator Competencies and Training (MTOCT)
aims to identify key competences and knowledge requirements,
together with appropriate verification processes, to help
members develop or commission their own terminal operator
training programmes to ensure that personnel working on the
ship/shore interface have the required skills and competence.
OCIMF spent three years reviewing and updating OCIMF Marine
Terminal Training and Competence Assessment Guidelines and
the Society of International Gas Tanker and Terminal Operators
(SIGTTO) Suggested Competence Standards, to create the MTOCT
manual and database. This allows a terminal operator to install
the MTOCT database and then fully customise it to meet their own
requirements.
OCIMF is not a training organisation, but this is a good example
of how it can bring together and share best practice from its
members and elsewhere to provide guidance on personnel
training, which can in turn improve safety and environmental
protection stand
