On this form, you can plan forward bunkerings and follow the progress of your Bunker Requirements.
- Multiple types, or grades, of fuel can be set up on the Fuel/Lube Types Term List in the Data Center. For each vessel, you can track up to five fuel types.

To work with bunkers for the voyage, on the Voyage Manager, click and then click Voyage Bunkers.
Summary Tab
Received quantities appear on the Summary tab after they are entered in Port Activities.
To bind a Bunker Invoice to the voyage, in the Bunker Liftings grid, the S check box must be selected.

Detail Tabs
This form has a detail tab for each bunker grade. On each individual bunker grade tab, you can enter the Operator Quantity. The best known price is defaulted, but you can change it to maintain the P&L bunker expenses. It is the assigned price for this lifting until an invoice is issued for this lifting or a Bunker Purchase is recorded for the port.
Req Qty is only used for a stand-alone Bunker Requirement, and it cannot be edited because a Bunker Requirement can be linked at a later time.
Detail Tab for LNG
The Detail tab for LNG has additional Boil-Off Price, Forced Boil-Off Price, and NBOG Speed Ballast and Laden fields at the bottom:
Surveys Tab
To enter Survey Costs, click .
On the Survey Costs form, you can enter information about a survey and allocate parts of the paid amount to rebill the linked TCO/TCI counterparties.
