Vetting is a voluntary evaluation and examination system set up by oil companies in order to rate tanker ship owners and their vessels. Vetting in its current form first appeared in 1993, the year the Ship Inspection Report (SIRE) database was created.
Nowadays also other ship types are subject of vetting processes.The TMSA (Tanker Management and Self Assessment) is a tool to help ship operators to measure and improve their management system in order to achieve incident-free operations. The TMSA initiative encourages ship operators to achieve high standards of ship management and continuous improvement, and provides guidance on what OCIMF (Oil Company international Marine Forum) believes to be current industry best practice.
