10.9 REVISION

GAC reserves the rights to amend, changes, edits or alter from time to time any or all items under this

schedule of charges including terms and conditions or interpretations contained herein. Where possible,

notification of revision shall be issued 30 days prior to any changes.

11. PROCEDURES

11.1 VESSEL MOVEMENTS

11.1.1 Vetting

Potential KCT Users are requested to send the ship’s particulars to GAC for vetting purposes. This is to

determine if the ship is acceptable to berth at KCT. Main parameters in the vetting process are LOA,

summer draft and the availability of ship’s gears. While the operational parameters of KCT are generally

known, on occasion and on a case by case base only exceptions can be made. An exception granted to a

ship at a given time does not mean that this particular ship can berth on another occasion.

In order to comply with international regulations, agreements etc, and not to violate sanctions and/or

embargo’s imposed upon one or more parties, prior to acceptance of the vessel and cargo nomination, the

GAC KYC Form (Know Your Customer) is to be completed and signed for all parties involved with the

potential fixture (Supplier, Consignee, Agent, etc) and submitted to GAC Compliance Department for

approval using the GAC KYC Process. The turnaround time for this process is usually one working

business day and the fixture nomination is not to be confirmed or actioned until this KYC approval has been

received. See Appendix 2 for the KYC form in English and Appendix 3 for the KYC form in French.

11.1.2 Nomination

After a vessel has been found acceptable and KYC process completed, the vessel must be formally

nominated to GAC. This is done by means of a N.O.V.A. form. An example of the N.O.V.A can be found in

Appendix 1.

The N.O.V.A. must be sent to GAC a minimum of 7 calendar days before the expected arrival of the vessel.

For short voyages (i.e. < 7 days) GAC will do its utmost to process the N.O.V.A. as soon as possible but

without implicit warranty.

Together with the N.O.V.A a copy of the packing list or manifest is required to prepare the vessel’s stay at

the terminal and plan the operations.

Based on the vessel’s particulars, the terminal dues, port dues and wharfage are calculated. The on-board

handling is calculated pro forma based on the received packing list or manifest. After the final manifest is

received the on-board handling charges are calculated.



9000-O-CPD-00023Rev.0 Page 16 of 24

11.1.3 Before arrival

- The vessel, via the agent, must sent the ETA notice 96-72-48-24 hrs. before arrival.

- GAC will calculate the terminal dues, and cargo dues and send the invoice to the agent. This invoice

must be paid before arrival of the vessel

- GAC will communicate with the vessel’s agent regarding the berthing prospects and include in the

GAC Berthing Plan.

- GAC in turn will confirm berthing permission to the CBG Port Authority Chief Pilot.

11.1.4 Summary

For a summary and visual presentation of the process see Appendix 2.

11.2 ADMINISTRATION

11.2.1 First come first serve

GAC strictly adheres to the first come first serve principle. This means that berthing priority is according to

ETA at Kamsar Port Pilot Station. If two or more vessels declare the same ETA the date and time of

reception of the N.O.V.A will determine the berthing priority and order.

11.2.2 Before arrival

1. Ship’s particular’s information for vetting purposes must be submitted to GAC for evaluation.

2. A N.O.V.A must be submitted to the KCT Management not later than seven (7) calendar days prior

to the vessel arrival at Kamsar pilot boarding grounds. The N.O.V.A must be submitted to the KCT

Management by means of E-mail at the following addresses and in hard copy at the KCT

operations office.

a. ADPC KCT Port Operations Manager: Jan Caers – [email protected]

b. ADPC KCT Port Operations Deputy Manager Said Mohamed – [email protected]

c. or any other e-mail address that GAC may communicate from time to time.

3. Together with the N.O.V.A the agent for the KCT User must also submit in soft and hard copies the

following documentation:

a. Final Packing list or Cargo Manifest related to the cargo operations at the KCT including

the weight (MT) and dimensions (L-B-H) of each individual package.

b. For heavy lifts where stevedoring or shore handling is not provided by KCT:

i. Copies of the relevant certificate for all the equipment that are planned to be

utilized during the relevant operation.

ii. A full crew (Stevedoring) list and position and contact number of the operation

supervisor on site at the KCT including the equipment registration number that

will be utilized during the operation.

iii. A letter from the stevedoring company duly attested and endorsed that certifies

that all the personnel that will be deployed during the operation are fully


mailto:[email protected]


9000-O-CPD-00023Rev.0 Page 17 of 24

competent to perform their duties professionally (GAC will carry no liability or

responsibility in relation to the capability and certification of the appointed

persons thereafter).

iv. Proposed discharge / loading plan including time frame.

4. The KCT User’s agent must also declare the intention of how the cargo will be delivered /received

to/from the jetty/terminal meaning direct delivery/receipt immediately after discharge/loading to and

from the vessel or if storage of the cargo is required within the KCT perimeter. In the case of

storage the agent will declare the amount of days that will be required prior to the cargo being

dispatched from the terminal.

5. Within 72 Hours after the reception of the N.O.V.A. and related documents, KCT Management will

issue an invoice for KCT Charges for terminal dues and stevedoring against the documents

submitted. The KCT User must settle such KCT Charges prior to vessel berthing. In case that for

reason which is over and above the control of both parties such like but not limited to banking

issue a bank draft in favor of the GAC must be submitted prior to commencement of operations. In

such case that payments for KCT Charges have not been received, the KCT Management (or

GAC) may refuse berthing at the KCT.

6. An invoice for cargo dues will be issued to the freight forwarder or receiver, which shall be settled

prior to arrival of the vessel. Proof of payment is required before the vessel can berth at KCT.

11.2.3 After completion of cargo operations

1. Unless the cargo is loaded/unloaded in direct delivery the cargo will be stored on the KCT

premises awaiting delivery to the receiver or freight forwarder or to be loaded on board. Cargo can

be stored at KCT five (5) days free of charge. After 5 days a storage fee is charged per day. For

more details see 5.7 in this document. Please note that customs require that cargo is removed

from the terminal within 90 days after discharge.

2. An invoice for shore handling will be issued to the receiver or freight forwarder. This invoice must

be settled before the collection of the cargo. At the receipt of proof of such payment or deposit and

appropriate customs clearance documents, the KCT Management will provide a delivery note.

GAC reserves the right to withhold delivery note if no payment is received.

3. Customs charges and overtime pertaining to Vessel Operations (Discharge / Loading) will be paid

by the clearing agent at cost received from the Guinean customs department.
