A Marine Rubber Fender<\/strong> is a critical piece of equipment installed at berths and ports, designed to absorb the impact energy<\/strong> when a vessel berths or departs. Thanks to its elasticity, the fender minimizes damage to both the vessel\u2019s hull and the quay structure.<\/p>\n However, when a fender becomes damaged, cracked, or deformed<\/strong>, it can no longer perform its function effectively. This may lead to:<\/p>\n Direct collisions<\/strong> between the ship\u2019s hull and the quay wall, causing dents, cracks, or structural failures.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Safety risks<\/strong> for the vessel, cargo, and crew.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Significant financial losses<\/strong> due to repair costs and port operation disruptions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Recently, VM CONTROL surveyors conducted an independent damage survey<\/strong> on the marine rubber fender system<\/strong> following a berthing incident involving the vessel MV LAN CANG RIVER<\/strong> at Trung Nam Ca Na International Port<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Direct cause:<\/strong> Adverse weather conditions (long waves, strong winds, rough sea) caused the vessel to sway and repeatedly strike against the fender.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Indirect cause:<\/strong> Insufficient supervision and control during berthing operations under unfavorable weather conditions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Repair or replace the damaged fenders to restore safe berthing operations.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Review and strengthen vessel mooring and maneuvering procedures during rough sea conditions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Conduct periodic inspection and survey<\/strong> of fender systems to identify potential risks in advance.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Stakeholders should reach a settlement on repair or compensation based on the independent survey report by VM CONTROL<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Develop and implement enhanced berthing safety protocols<\/strong> for operations during strong wind and wave conditions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Apply preventive measures to minimize recurrence of similar incidents in the future.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n With extensive expertise in marine and commercial survey services<\/strong>, VM CONTROL is committed to:<\/p>\n Providing independent, accurate, and transparent<\/strong> assessments<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Delivering practical and timely<\/strong> solutions<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests<\/strong> of our clients in every situation<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n \ud83d\udccc VIET MARINE CONTROL JOINT STOCK COMPANY (VM CONTROL)<\/strong> A Marine Rubber Fender is a critical piece of equipment installed at berths and ports, designed to absorb the impact energy when a vessel berths or departs.
