RN-Bunker Completes Quality Management Process
Singaporean maritime and energy consultancy Cross Keys Group has announced RN-Bunker's completion of Quality Management System for Bunker Supply Chain after the conclusion of a two year process.
According to today's emailed press release, Cross Keys Group said it acted as an advisory partner to RN-Bunker and sister company Rosneft Marine to ensure that Rosneft’s Quality Management System for Bunker Supply Chain is accurately drafted, documented, managed, and implemented across the supply chain network.
"RN-Bunker’s vision of introducing seamless standardised procedures in Russian ports will deliver a relationship of trust with bunker industry stakeholders ensuring compliant, reliable and consistent bunker deliveries," commented Oleg Micevic, Director, Cross Keys Group.
By achieving the milestone, RN-Bunker said they aimed to "set up a standardised platform of transparency and accountability throughout the entire bunkering process," and intend "to further strengthen the trust and confidence of their shareholders across the global arena."
As part of the process, Lloyd’s Register FOBAS, Singapore offered technical advisory services, and Saybolt provided onsite inspections on applicable documents and procedures in the port of Nakhodka, Russia.
"RN-Bunkers efforts to establish an unbroken chain of control over the quality of bunker fuel supplied in their ports of operation holds a bright future," said Douglas Raitt, Global Fobas Manager based in Singapore.
"The key to managing bunker supplies is having a well documented process: a process that is clear, accountable and professional providing buyers with the confidence that they need when procuring fuel from a marine fuel supplier," he added.
