Guide to Simultaneous Carriage of Ammonia and LPG Cargoes
Year: 2026 Language: English Author: INTERTANKO Genre: Guide Publisher: INTERTANKO Edition: 1st Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 18 Description: In the recent past there has been an increase in interest within the industry for the simultaneous carriage of ammonia and LPG onboard gas ships. Historically, ammonia and LPG cargoes are not carried together during a voyage, therefore there is little experience within the industry for such simultaneous carriages. This document provides a comprehensive guide to conducting risk assessments and establishing the necessary safeguards for these carriages, but it is up to the Owner (based on a risk-assessment approach) to ultimately decide on the feasibility of proceeding to ensure the safe and efficient simultaneous carriage of ammonia and LPG. This document should be seen as a guide only, and the final safeguards applicable on board will be determined based on a detailed risk assessment. Some procedures included in this document are not only specific to the simultaneous carriage of LPG and NH3 but are standard cargo-handling practices. They have been included to highlight their importance and to illustrate how they can be applied during simultaneous carriage.
