Scope and Field of Application
This publication deals with the operation and special
arrangements of meters, provers, manifolding, instrumentation, and
accessory equipment used to measure the loading and unloading of
marine bulk carriers.
The information provided in this publication is applicable to
shore-to-carrier and carrier-to-shore measurement of crude oils and
refined products. These procedures are not intended to apply to
hydrocarbons that require specialized measurement and handling
equipment, such as liquefied natural gas (LNG).
Applicable carriers may range from river barges to ocean-going
ultralarge crude carriers (ULCCs). Measuring equipment will,
accordingly, range from small metering installations that use bare
essentials to very large, sophisticated metering installations that
incorporate optimal equipment that speed operations and ensure
optimum measurement accuracy in vessels that handle large
volumes.
