(July 3 2008) The Baltic Exchange and Q88.com have launched 'www.baltic99.com' , a new website for the dry bulk shipping industry that aims to improve accuracy and efficiency when dry bulk shipowners complete and distribute vessel questionnaires to charterers and port terminals.
In conjunction with the launch, the Baltic Exchange has revised Baltic99 its standard dry cargo questionnaire for owners and charterers. A new version is available for download from www.baltic99.com.
This new website allows for automatic completion of required documentation by linking 90 of the currently required questionnaires to a common database. In addition, the website also allows the user to search the database for specific information about each vessel and to keep track of certificate dates.
New subscribers can use this service at no cost until January 1, 2009. Thereafter each subscriber will be charged an annual fee per ship.
Access to www.baltic99.com is via a password-protected login.
