A message from an inspection company to bulk cargo buyers and
sellers, ship and barge owners, agents, or customs, identifying
significant transport dates and times, as well as cargo quality
and quantity information.
1.2 Field of application
The Bulk marine inspection summary report message may be used
for both national and international applications. It is based
on universal practice related to administration, commerce and
transport, and is not dependent on the type of business or
industry.

control and payment approval. This message can also be used to:
- identify vessels, barges, tugs, ports and terminals, and
associated voyage numbers
- specify transportation details such as, docking dates and
times, sea valve numbers, and vessel experience factors
- specify bulk cargo by name, physical measurements and tests.
