CRUDE SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR LOAD AND DISCHARGE

Debno Before loading, deballast entirely from the tanks adjacent to the cargo tanks in loading sequence. Start loading to a minimum number of tanks. Apply
maximum heating immediately to the cargo. For each set of tanks loaded, deballast first, then load. Apply full heating during loading, voyage and
discharge. Max temp 25C.
At discharge, only ballast tanks once the adjacent cargo tanks have been fully discharged and stripped. No COW. Maximum
possible safe trim for stripping tanks and lines. Strip all tanks at least three times.

1 Conventional Tankers and Single Hulled Segregated Ballast Tankers

A1 Minimum Marpol. Maximum possible safe trim for stripping tanks and lines. Strip all tanks at least three times
A2 Minimum Marpol plus a bottom wash of remaining tanks.
A3 Full wash
A4 Minimum Marpol plus a full wash of remaining wing tanks and a bottom wash of remaining centre tanks.
A5 No COW, except with cutter stock such as heated gas oil. Otherwise treat as fuel oil, with maximum possible safe trim for stripping.
A6 Cargoes are small, generally carried in Product Tankers, and treated in the same way as Fuel Oil
A7 Minimum Marpol plus a bottom wash of remaining cargo tanks, using the contents of the slop tanks which should be at least 10degC higher
than the cargo carried in the cargo tanks.
A8 Full wash, using the contents of the slop tanks which should be at least 10degC higher than the cargo carried in the cargo tanks.
A9 IN TROPICAL AREAS ONLY - Bottom wash of all tanks., otherwise follow COW code A5

B1 Minimum Marpol. Maximum possible safe trim for stripping tanks and lines. Strip all tanks at least three times.
B2 Minimum Marpol plus a bottom wash of remaining tanks
B3 Full wash
B4 Full wash required for wings tanks and bottom wash for centre tanks
B5 No COW, except with cutter stock such as heated gas oil. Otherwise treat as fuel oil with maximum safe trim for stripping.
B6 Cargoes are small, generally carried on product carriers, and treated in the same way as Fuel Oil
B7 Bottom wash required, using the contents of the slop tanks the contents of which should be at least 10degC higher than the cargo carried
in the cargo tanks.
B8 Full wash, using the contents of the slop tanks which should be at least 10degC higher than the cargo carried in the cargo tanks
B9 IN TROPICAL AREAS ONLY - Bottom wash of all tanks, otherwise follow COW code B5.

MINIMUM MARPOL REQUIREMENTS - FOR SBT TANKERS

a) Min Marpol requirements are basically in place for sludge control purposes and to reduce oil pollution through COWing
Heavy weather ballast tanks.

b) Account is taken of the ship's trading pattern and the expected weather so that additional ballast water is not put into cargo tanks
which have not been crude oil washed - In effect this means that the ship is entitled to COW his heavy weather ballast tanks every time,

Page 21
 COW Codes

it would be difficult to argue against a ship doing this every time, typically they will be COWing one or two tanks dependent on ship design.

c) In addition to the above approximatelly one quarter of all remaining tanks shall be crude oil washed for sludge control on a rotational basis,
all tanks must be completed over a 1 year period.
These additional tanks may include the tanks reffered to in b) above. However, for sludge control purposes, no tank need be COWed more
than once in every four months.

Minimum Marpol Wash = 25% of the cargo tanks COW'd every time (Though with the wording of Marpol the ship owner could
argue that 25% of the tanks plus the heavy weather ballast tanks require washing every time)

Due to the properties of benzene (b.p. 80 deg

C) and its trade as Heavy Raffinate and
Benzene Hard Cut (50% benzene), monitoring of
these grades has shown that vapour levels are
usually below the PEL (1 ppm over 8 hours)
and STEL (5 ppm over 5 mins). It is
therefore thought that the benzene content of
Miskar Condensate should not pose any great
hazard although inspectors and personnel
involved in its transportation and inspection
should wear appropriate PPE.

A respirator with an organic filter as well

as PVC gloves should be immediately
available. Prior to inspection a draeger
reading of the benzene content of the vapour
space should be obtained. Based upon this
reading appropriate precautions should be
taken for sampling and gauging.
