Multi-Language Support

With the rapid international uptake of the Vessel-Check platform, we are pleased to advise that our website and Knowledge Base (User Guide) is now available in a number of languages, including Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Danish, English, French, German, Portuguese, Spanish.

This multi-language support will allow our global customer base to more easily maximise their use of Vessel-Check. You can select the various languages via the drop-down list at the top of www.vessel-check.com.

In addition, we are pleased to advise that we are releasing different language editions for the full range of tools and documentation. We will be launching the Spanish edition of the application later this month, the German version next month and more during the course of 2022.

Structured Authority Training Course

With more regulatory users assessing and subscribing to Vessel-Check, a structured, hands-on training course has been developed and is being rolled out across regulatory and oil and gas customers. This includes an initial session covering the User Interface (UI), risk metrics, nomination status and assessing a profile. A second session covers more advanced features such as logs, flagged vessels, the document library and reporting. Get in touch to book your training.

Nomination Status

In partnership with our Resource Manager customers, the Port Nomination status has been further refined and is now available across all jurisdictions. The Status level provides a simple and effective way to capture both the Vessel-Check system assessments and jurisdictional reviews for each port nomination. These are made visible to Vessel Managers and are defined in our Knowledge Base.
