Ship/Shore Safety Checklist

Abbreviation: SSSCL

Mandatory pre-cargo-transfer checklist verified jointly by ship and terminal representatives.

In practice

Repeated typically every 4 hours during cargo operations as the SSSCL Part B 'continuous monitoring' check. Each repeat is signed by both ship and shore; lapses appear as PSC and vetting deficiencies.

Regulatory detail & full definition

ISGOTT and IGC Code prescribe the format. Items cover mooring, fire-fighting, emergency communications, radio silence, hot-work prohibition, vapour control, and emergency shutdown verification. Repeated at intervals during the operation. Signed copy retained for 3 years.
