Soyabean shipment is a complex operation services and has its own procedures, as from the data entry of export documents in Siscomex system(Customs), cargoes storage and conveying to the vessels holds must be checked by technicians, surveyors and the assesment of others skilled stakeholders.
Most of complaints usualy are stemmed from soyabeans loading into vessel´s holds. And are related to the cargo temperature and moisture during and after loading. P&I clubs are recommending the cargo temperature during the loading operations around 25 and 30º C with and average moisture contente 11.5 or less in order to avoid cargo damage (self-heating, caking ) and future claims by the importerers. As per displayed in site: http://www.nepia.com/media/435711/LP-Briefing-Soya-Beans-Cargo-Damage-Claims-June-2016.PDF
They are also instructing their members to verify the “quality certificates”which state the cargoes specifities and to collect, if posible, some samples of soyabean, in spite of the bill of lading stress the remarks” received on board in apparent good order and conditions”. They are trying to avoid any quarrel by the consignees in the destination ports.
China is the main importer of Brazilian soyabean and the disputes related to cargoes damages has increased in Chinese courts. Bearing in mind that transit time Brazil to Chinese ports is around 40 days. Carriers must take all security procedures on loading and during the long Voyage to Chinese ports.
