This book is a completely new text for Liquefied Gas Carriers. With over two hundred graphical images, line drawings and photographs, it covers the IMO specialised level course (Model 1.06) for ships’ officers serving on both LNG and LPG carriers.
Ship to Ship (STS) transfer of liquefied gases at sea. This guide will be of use in the event of emergency lightening operations, providing checklists for each stage of the operation.
This SIGTTO guidance note has been produced due to members’ concerns about the different interpretations of the functional requirements for ESD systems, particularly those differences between the needs of the LNG industry and those of the LPG industry and how these may interact with linked ship/shore shutdown systems (2009).
