FSO 'Pattani' Approach Lane- Vessels must approach from the E when heading to the Northern Export Anchorage (9°39.8'N., 101°29.0'E) by using the Northern Approach Lane and passing between Northern Approach Lane Point NA-1 (9°37'N, 101°35'E.) and Point NA-2 (9°42'N., 101°35'E). Reports must be made to Terminal Control before coming within 10 miles of the Restricted Area. Eastern Approach Lane- Vessels must report to FSO 'Pattani' when passing: a) Position 9°14'N, 101°35'E from the N. b) Position 9°09'N, 101°35'E from the S.

BA 66, 2414, 3963. Admiralty Pilot NP30, NP286(4).

Two inflatable boats are available to enable Mooring Master to board vessels when weather conditions are favourable. FSO 'Pattani': Vessels secure their port side alongside or in tandem from the stern of the FSO. All mooring wires used must have synthetic rope tails with a breaking strength at least 20% greater than the breaking load of wires to which they are attached. Standard mooring consist of five head lines plus two springs and four stern lines plus two springs. Vessels fitted with tension winches must have them on Manual Brake, when secured alongside. Mooring in tandem at the terminals: Vessels should have ready, on the focsle, a rope of at least 8in circumference and 152m length to be used to connect to the hawser pick up line. The terminal uses a single hawser with a chafe chain.

Pilotage within the terminal is compulsory, except when proceeding to anchor. A company Mooring Master will board all vessels scheduled to occupy the berth. Masters vessels must ensure they are familiar with and strictly observe all regulations, paying particular regard to those covering safe operations and pollution of the sea (by oil, dirty ballast, garbage or any other material). Vessels berthing on arrival will be boarded by the Mooring Master in the anchorage area or at a point advised by the terminal control or Mooring Master. Mooring Masters: All Mooring Masters carry their own radios but this does not exempt the vessel from having operational Marine VHF sets. Masters are reminded that Mooring Masters must be afforded boarding facilities complying with accepted international standards with regard to the vessel's freeboard. The assigned Mooring Master (or his relief) will remain onboard the vessel from the time of boarding until the vessel clears the berth. Should a loaded vessel be returning to the anchorage, the Mooring Master will not necessarily anchor the vessel (however he may do so in certain circumstances). He will, however, remain onboard until the vessel clears the vicinity of the terminal, or completes any documentation requirements.

The terminal operates 24 hours daily throughout the year, subject to prevailing weather. Vessels will only be berthed alongside during daylight hours but may be berthed at any time if tandem moored. All vessels over 20,000DWT must be fitted with a fully operational inert gas system serving all cargo tanks. Vessel age: Vessels over 15 years of age will not be accepted unless they have previously loaded at the terminal without incident and are still with same owners/managers or have a recent SIRE, or equivalent report, that is considered acceptable to the terminal.Use of vessel anchors in the loading berths is not permitted. Vessels scheduled to load should have both anchors cleared away ready for emergency use. To prevent accidental release the cable stoppers should be utilised until advised to the contrary by the Mooring Master. Craft Alongside: No small craft other than those on official business will be allowed alongside vessels either in the anchorage or in the loading berths.

Vessels should report to FSO 'Pattani', via VHF Ch 17, or Marine Control, via VHF Ch 09 when passing the following positions: ..... E Approach Lane a. N reporting point : 09°20.0'N 101°35.0'E b. S reporting point : 09°09.0'N 101°35.0'E N Approach Vessels heading to the Northern Export anchorage (09°39.8'N 101°29.0'E) must approach from E, using the N Approach Lane and passing between the following 2 points: a. N Approach Lane Point NA-1: 09°37.3'N 101°35.0'E b. N Approach Lane Point NA-2: 09°42.3'N 101°35.0'E

Service vessels with tug capability are available.
