Notes:

  • The Berthing Guidelines (BGL) provides guidance on the efficient provision of pilotage services.
  • The BGL is a reference for all port users requiring pilotage services. In order to expedite the arrangement of operation involving pilotage, the BGL set out the agreed operational parameters and measures which were endorsed by the Pilotage Advisory Committee (PAC). Owners, operators and agents of ships are encouraged to disseminate relevant information contained in this BGL to their masters of ships.
  • These guidelines are constantly being updated. You are therefore advised to consult them on-line instead of keeping a copy on your own system.
  • Any reproduction of the guidelines in entirety or in part for commercial gains is strictly prohibited.
