Transporte Maritimo Internacional
(Abreviações em Comunicações)
Embora muito utilizado, o uso das abreviações deve permitir que a comunicação seja fluente, confortável e segura para as partes envolvidas. Deve prevalecer o bom senso e principalmente prudência. É importante a certeza da compreensão da outra parte, para evitar a alegação do não entendimento de um aviso ou instrução importante na operação, caso algum fato desastroso possa ocorrer.
