Ship Universe Bunker Claims Tool

Off-Spec Bunker Fuel Claim & De-Bunkering Cost Tool

Estimate the economic impact of an off-spec bunker incident, including fuel value loss, de-bunkering, salvage recovery, replacement-fuel price differential, tank cleaning, disposal, testing, survey costs, machinery damage and vessel delay. Advanced mode models multiple affected fuel lots or tanks and concurrent de-bunkering waves.

Currency selector changes display only. No exchange-rate conversion is performed.
Fuel Loss Affected quantity, de-bunkered fuel, salvage credit and replacement price differential
De-Bunkering Pumping time, tank cleaning, disposal, barge costs and replacement bunkering schedule
Claim Exposure Gross claim basis, expected recovery, deductible and residual owner exposure

Affected Bunker Fuel

Enter the quantity considered affected and the portion expected to be removed. This tool does not determine whether the fuel is technically off-spec or whether removal is required.

Affected Fuel Lots / Tanks

Use the same wave number for tanks or lots that can be handled in parallel. Each row can use a different fuel price, salvage value, removal percentage, pumping rate and tank-cleaning duration.

Bunker Claim & De-Bunkering Results

Single affected bunker lot

Enter bunker data
Enter affected fuel, de-bunkering, replacement-fuel and claim-cost assumptions to estimate the incident's economic exposure.
Commercial planning estimate only. This tool does not determine whether bunker fuel is off-spec, unsafe, unusable or contractually non-compliant. It does not determine whether de-bunkering is technically required, whether fuel may be consumed, blended, treated, resold or disposed of, or which party is legally responsible. Actual claims depend on bunker specifications, test methods, sampling and chain of custody, contractual terms, applicable law, causation, mitigation, notice requirements, evidence, machinery condition, port restrictions, insurance terms and factual circumstances. Salvage value, consequential damages, vessel delay, legal cost and recovery assumptions can be disputed. Obtain technical, legal, insurance, class, flag and commercial advice before acting on a bunker dispute or submitting a claim. Fuel transfer, de-bunkering, tank entry and disposal must follow approved vessel, terminal, environmental and safety procedures.
