Success Story
BQCIS Detects Hidden Weight Discrepancy in Iron Ore Export
An Asian steel mill reported repeated short-landed cargo on iron ore shipments from South America, causing major losses.
BQCIS conducted supervised draft surveys at both loading and discharge ports. Discrepancies were traced to water density variation and uncalibrated equipment.
The corrected density factor and verified measurements eliminated a $700,000 claim, restoring confidence between trading partners.
