REVISION TO THE “GATE SYSTEM” FOR LICENSING OF PORT LIMIT BUNKER

TANKERS

The “Gate System” for licensing of port limit bunker tankers was implemented

on 1 Jan 2005. It underscores Singapore’s efforts in minimizing the risk of marine

pollution by setting age limits and other conditions for the issuance of new Harbour

Craft Licence for Bunkering. Over the years, the “Gate System” has been reviewed

as an instrumental tool in MPA’s drive towards maintaining a young, efficient and

environmentally-friendly fleet of bunker tankers operating in the Port of Singapore.

This is especially important as the international maritime community moves towards

lower emission limits and green shipping.

2 In our continual efforts towards fleet renewal to safeguard the environment,

MPA will enhance the “Gate System” for licensing of port limit bunker tankers by

imposing an entry age limit of less than 10 years for vessels 600 DWT and above

with effect from 1 January 2012. In addition, with effect from 1 January 2014, port

limit bunker tankers of 30 years old and above will not be allowed to operate in the

Port of Singapore. These new requirements will better manage the navigational,

operational and environmental risks within the port.

3 The details of the revised “Gate System” for licensing of port limit bunker

tankers are illustrated in Appendix 1.

4 All bunker craft owners and operators are to ensure that their bunker tankers

adhere to the Standards for Port Limit Bunker Tankers and the requirements of the

“Gate System”. Please contact our officers at 6375 1959 or 6375 1953 if you need

any clarification.

5 The Port Marine Circular No. 3 of 2008 will be cancelled with effect from 1 Jan

2012.
