Where cargo transfer is by means of cargo pumps not |
|
|
|
|
|
(16) 18 |
accessible for repair with the tanks in service, at least two |
|
|
|
separate means should be provided to transfer cargo from |
|
each cargo tank and the design should be such that failure of |
|
one cargo pump, or means of transfer, will not prevent the |
|
cargo transfer by another pump or pumps, or other cargo |
|
transfer means. The procedure for transfer of cargo by gas |
|
pressurization should preclude lifting of the relief valves during |
|
such transfer. Gas pressurization may be accepted as a |
|
means of transfer of cargo for those tanks so designed that |
|
the design factor of safety is not reduced under the conditions |
|
prevailing during the cargo transfer operation. |

The physical condition and maintenance of cargo heaters and heat exchangers (when fitted) appears satisfactory
Cargo heaters and heat exchangers should be periodically tested to identify potential leaks and recorded. Procedures should also be in place to determine when permanent repairs are required.
These questions refer to equipment located in the deckhouse or deck machinery space.
Any defect in the equipment will result in a No answer. For questions answered as 'No', the details of the defect must be entered in the observation.
In assessing this section the physical condition and maintenance should not be considered satisfactory if:

When testing the ESD a system should be in place to insure all ESD activation points are part of a rotation system such that they are all tested as part of the testing regime with-in 12 months. Valves must close smoothly in the required time period as stated in the IGC Code (less than 30 seconds after ESD activation), but allowing sufficient time to avoid surge pressure if activated during cargo transfer.
