Mozambique – Cautionary Notice − Hot Coal at Maputo

4 November 2008 No.559
Please find attached file from our correspondent in South Africa, P&I Associates (Pty) Ltd. They alert that coal at the Matola Coal Terminal, Maputo, Mozambique has spontaneously combusted because of long storage time and unseasonable high wind. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that crew be particularly vigilant during the loading of bulk coal at Maputo and to ensure that all of the requirements of the BC Code are followed.

We hope this would be of your help.
