Laden Aframax Tanker entered Rotterdam Port and proceeding inward down to Vopak Terminal. Approached the Terminal and berthed with the tugs assistance.
Hello again from Colorado, Captain, beautiful sunrise entry into port. It's a treat to experience these operations from the perfect vantage point as most crew members are often stuck at their below deck duty stations. I recall as we were entering Hong Kong harbor back in the 1960s, I climbed up the escape trunk from the aux engine room to look around, I'll never forget that amazing sight. Thanks for sharing, getting close to 1K, best wishes.
Worldwide) Of course Rotteradm is the most vsited. The second one is the Houston. Than the Mongstad,Norway and Singapore. Also the Novorossiysk,Russia and Cape Town, SA (Routes from Cape Town to West African Ports,Chevron Time Charter). Most common routes were from Northern Europe to US, East Coast and Canada (Shell Time Charter). Also we had worked for three years under the Petrobras Time Charter between Brazilian ports and Carribbean Islands. Difficult to list all of the routes in one comment)
Smoothe to the lens view, I imagine that's a result of experience and teamwork. What a beautiful day captured.
Capt. Very nice to see this from the other side. 😊. Normally is see this from the controlroom from Vopak. Thank you.
Kind regards 👍
