Soybean Discharge and Storage Observation Report

Upon our attendance, we observed that three gangs were still discharging cargo from holds No. 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 using shore cranes with grabs. The cargo was then transferred to trucks via a hopper and transported to either silos or warehouses. Prior to entry into the silos or warehouses, the cargo was weighed using a weighbridge. Due to concerns expressed by the receiver regarding the severity of the top layer of cargo in hold No. 4, these cargoes were separated from the others and stored in a separate location. We noted from the weight certificate that a total of 1677.1 Mt soybeans were stored in No. 206 warehouse, while the remaining cargoes were stored in No. 203 warehouse and silos.
