Guidelines for Pre-loading Inspection of Marine Vessel Cargo Tanks and Their Cargo
Description
This standard specifies procedures for determining that the cargo tanks and associated cargo-handling system of marine vessels are in a suitably clean condition to receive the intended cargo. This applies to the loading of crude oil, petroleum products, and petrochemical cargoes. This standard explains the extent of inspection that can be instituted for certain general types of cargoes and an example of a format that may be used for reporting the findings of tank inspections. Because of the wide variety of conditions that may exist when performing preloading tank inspections, this standard is not intended to restrict the judgment of the person performing the inspection.
