Minimum vessel mooring bitts requirements DWT Mooring bitts Arrangement 50,000-120,000 4 bitts on poop deck, 2 bitts on main deck aft 120,000-316,000 7 bitts total (Arranged with at least 2 bitts on main deck aft and 5 bitts on poop deck)** **Four bitts on the poop deck are acceptable for ships with 5 or more ship's wires on poop deck (i.e. number of mooring wires plus mooring bitts on poop deck must be at least 9). Emergency towing equipment must be provided on poop of the vessel. Ship's derrick: All vessels must have at least 10t SWL ship's derrick for lifting hoses from sea bed. Bow anchors: All vessels must have 2 bow anchors with following scope of anchor chain: ..... Vessels between 50,000-90,000DWT 11 shackles Vessels between 90,000-160,000DWT 12 shackles Vessels greater than 160,000DWT 13 shackles Simultaneous ballast capability: All vessels must be capable of simultaneous ballasting and cargo discharge in order to minimise the exposed wind area of the vessel while moored. Vessel rejection: If in the opinion of the harbour pilot of the Quiliano Marine Terminal Supervisor, the vessel is not equipped with adequate mooring facilities, lines or gear, he will so inform the vessel's master and in such event the ship will not be brought into mooring until facilities, lines or gear, are deemed satisfactorily. SARPOM Marine Terminal Supervisor: The ship is boarded before the beginning of mooring operations by a Quiliano Marine Terminal Supervisor who is an experienced master. He remains onboard up to the end of the unmooring operation and acts as coordinator for all ship/shore operations. He also provides local advice to the master should any emergency arise while at berth. Ship/shore communications with Terminal Control Room are by portable VHF radio units used by the Quiliano Marine Terminal Supervisor and the mooring crew only. Berthing approach: Berthing is limited to daylight hours due to unavailability of mooring crew and tugs. All manoeuvring of ships proceeding to, and within the SBM limits must be done in accordance with the harbour pilot's advice. Vessels will proceed subsequently to Vado Bay on a course parallel to the coast, approx 1.2nm from the shore, up to the terminal area.A starboard turn will be taken, steering on the approaching range line, leading to the mooring buoys. Another range line, crossing with the above line, marks the position where the starboard anchor should be dropped. With the assistance of 4 tugs, the ship continues its starboard turn, drops her port anchor and backs into the berth. A yellow spar buoy is provided to mark the position of the subsea manifold. The Quiliano Marine Terminal Supervisor will give measurements to spar buoy for final positioning. Tugs are stationed close within Savona and Vado Harbours and are also used for unberthing and for emergencies. Running of lines: The arrangement of mooring lines and preventers, and the sequence of mooring operations that will take place will be agreed between master, harbour pilot and terminal supervisor. A mooring plan is provided to facilitate and document the agreement on mooring. Vessel must be moored to the entire satisfaction of the pilot and Quiliano Marine Terminal Supervisor. Self Tensioning Winches: Vessels fitted with self tensioning winches must put on manual brakes. Steam for Winches: Steam must be kept on deck at all times in case an adjustment to anchor chain or vessel's mooring lines is necessary. Status of mooring: The safety of the moored vessel is the master's responsibility under all circumstances. However in order to ensure safe cargo handling and avoid damage to the terminal installation, the terminal supervisor will check the vessel's moorings periodically and when found unsatisfactory, will request the master to correct or adjust the moorings. In extreme cases the terminal supervisor may decide to suspend the cargo discharge. Cargo hose connection/disconnection: Raising, connecting, disconnecting and lowering of the hoses will be performed by shore personnel (normally 6 men), who will remain onboard throughout discharging operations. Vessels crew is required to assist shore personnel by handling the boom winch and should carefully inspect their hose boom equipment before arrival.

The mandatory pilotage area comprises the water area between the coast and the following points: ..... 1. Capo di Vadio Light (44°15.5'N 008°27.2'E), 2. 1nm ESE from the Savona Breakwater Light (44°18.9'N 008°30.2'E), 3. Capo d'Albisola (44°19.9'N 008°31.6'E). Pilotage is compulsory for all except the following: 1. Warships 2. Vessels of up to 500GT 3. Fishing vessels not engaged in Atlantic operations 4. Tugs providing port services 5. Vessels engaged in local traffic and work with the port. Pilot boards 1.0nm off the mandatory pilotage area. Quiliano Terminal: Pilotage is compulsory. Vessels should send ETA on departure of last port of call, 72, 48 and 24 hours in advance. Any change in the ETA of greater than 12 hours should be notified. Contact should be established on VHF Ch 13 with the pilot station at Savona 3 hours prior to arrival. The pilot boarding position is 44°17.0'N 008°30.5'E, approx 2nm S of Savona Harbour. Vessels will be boarded by the harbour pilots and the Quiliano Marine Terminal Supervisor off Savona Harbour breakwater or at anchorage. Berthing will take place during daylight hours only. Two pilots are normally provided. One is in charge of piloting and the second, with less seniority, is on deck advising the officers and crew performing the mooring operation. The pilots bring with them their own VHF sets with which to communicate with tugs, mooring boats, and shore. Pilot ladder: Ships are requested to have a proper pilot ladder securely rigged and long enough to reach the pilot launch. During periods of darkness, adequate light must be rigged overboard for the pilot to approach the side of the ship and climb the ladder safely. If the ship freeboard exceeds 9.2m the pilot ladder must be rigged in conjunction with the accommodation ladder. Accommodation ladder: When the ship is berthed, the accommodation ladder on starboard side is requested by port authorities to be kept positioned 1.0m above sea level. In addition, the terminal requires the vessel to prepare the combination ladder on the port side so that it is available at all times during discharging operations. Status of ship equipment: The master of the ship shall notify the pilot and SMTS of any special conditions, difficulties or peculiarities, such as defective equipment, lines or gear, which might impose special hazards in connection with handling, mooring or discharging the ship. There must be a fully documented passage plan, approved by the master covering all details of the voyage, both at sea and in port, including when a pilot is aboard. Special attention should be given to the in port passage plan and the integration of the pilot into the Bridge Management Team. It is required that ships test steering gear, engine room telegraph, whistle and all navigational equipment before any manoeuvre to or from the berth. The pilot will decline to moor ships if they are not equipped with satisfactory equipment, lines, gear, etc.

Molo Miramar Head Light (green mast, 8.0m in height) (44°14.8'N 008°29.5'E).

Night entrance is considered in each case depending on type of mooring and vessel's draught. At Savona berths, vessels on max draught berth in daylight at high tide only.

Eight tugs available of 1,250-3,000hp capacity. Quiliano Terminal: 4 tugs available, min of 3 will be used having a min of 2,000hp each.

Prevailing winds: NW'ly. Meteorological information is available 0600-2359hrs from 'Avvisatore Maritimo' VHF Ch 13 and 16. In general, the weather in the bay is seasonal. From May to Oct it is very good. The worst period is from Oct to Dec when winds and seas from S to SW cause the max number of port closures. From Dec to May the highest winds are experienced, approaching the berth from the NW to NE, but the sea is usually smooth. Wind velocity can change suddenly (high gusts) and the relative wind direction can vary considerably in different parts of the bay at any one time, due to the irregularities of the coastal topography. Weather reports: Daily weather forecasts are available throughout 24 hours from the Terminal Office. Broadcast weather reports for the Mar Ligure, North Tirreno and Corsica are prepared by the Navy Department at La Spezia and the Air Force Weather Bureau. For the Mar Ligure, they are referred to Capo Mele (W of Vado Bay).
