Leak Proofing is the New Year’s Resolution

A new year has begun, 2013 has become a part of history and the once perceived future is now the present as we have entered the year 2014. New Year brings a lot of happiness and is considered a best time to make resolutions on a personal level and on a business level too. New goals are set up and new strategies are made. We see a horde of new designs, changes and so many things with the arrival of the New Year. Many major businesses already announce the attractions they will be providing as the last month of a year approaches. This New Year is also one of the best for the shipping industry because the trade will increase among all companies and most probably countries.

With the arrival of the year 2014 the shipping industry can make a New Year resolution that will not only make it a better and reliable industry, but it will also make it a more profitable industry. This resolution should be regular checking of the tightness of hatch with ultrasound for every ship that is to set sail in the year 2014. Checking the tightness of all the hatch covers of a ship on a regular basis is the first step towards controlling the quality of a ship and making it completely leak proof. Leaking ships are a blob of disgust on the entire industry because they not only damage the goods they are carrying, but they also damage the business whose goods are destroyed.

A business person always orders the goods according to their demand in his business. If the goods are damaged during the transportation process and even if the damages are paid by the ship owners, the customers who return from his shop empty handed due to non availability of the goods are customers lost forever. This clearly means that his business receives a huge blow which will leave its impact for a very long time or almost for the entire life. Getting reimbursed in terms of claims or insurance may be beneficial for the time being, but it is never a good option for business which aims for the longer term.

Hatch cover ultrasonic tightness testing should be on top of the New Year’s resolution for the year 2014 for every ship owner. This way he will not only be strengthening his own business, but also indirectly empowering the country’s economy and playing an indirect but a very effective part in booming the business of the country he is dealing with. Safe and satisfactory voyage mean more business, more bookings for the entire year and almost zero losses that are paid off as insurance claims.
