In general, for all vessels, particular care should be taken to ensure that the basic requirements laid down in this standard are understood and applied at each cargo transfer. In order to define the arrangement which will ensure the best possible conditions for ship to shore transfer, in particular regarding safety, it is necessary to set up this standard which, as far as possible, will lead to the harmonization of the differing requirements of the ship and the terminal. This standard governs the ship/shore interface taking into account the publications of the Society of International Gas Tankers and Terminal Operators (SIGTTO), Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO). In particular, this applies in matters pertaining to safety. 1 Scope EN 50017 EN 50018 EN 50019 EN 50020 EN 50028 EN 50039 EN 50054 This European Standard gives recommendations and requirements for the terminal and on board the ship to ensure the safe transfer of LNG at receiving and exporting terminals. It is applicable to the ship/shore LNG transfer systems including: ± ship to shore connections; ± all safety aspects of transfer operations; ± any other operations that occur while the ship is moored on the jetty.

The hazard analysis shall be performed according to prEN 1473. The basic precautions as outlined in this European Standard are considered to be the minimum safety precautions required. The additional precautions, resulting from the hazard analysis for each terminal shall be considered as extra to the basic precaution. The terminal and the ship shall always ensure that this minimum safety level is maintained by the use of the Ship/Shore Safety Check List. (In this regard, reference should be made to the SIGTTO guidelines: Annex B: Reference 6). 7.2 Basic precautions 7.2.1 Restricted harbour areas In order to guard against unexpected collisions to the LNG carrier when alongside, restricted areas around the berth for other maritime traffic should be defined by the appropriate authorities and the terminal. 7.2.2 Restricted area on the jetty Areas in which the access of non authorized personnel is limited should be regulated by the safety rules of the terminal. These areas correspond, at least in part, to the area affected by LNG transfer and should be clearly indicated. 7.2.3 Restricted area on the ship Areas in which access of non authorized personnel is limited should be regulated by the safety rules of the ship. These areas correspond, at least in part, to the area affected by LNG transfer. 7.2.4 Ship/shore safety check list The Ship/Shore Safety Check List should be officially completed by ship and shore personnel before the start of LNG transfer. (In this regard, reference should be made to the SIGTTO guidelines: Annex B: Reference 6.) 7.2.5 Mooring arrangements The ship shall be safely moored in accordance with the regulations of the local appropriate authority and the terminal. (In this regard, reference should be made to the OCIMF guidelines: Annex B: Reference 2.) --`,``,`,,,,,``,,``,``,``,```,`-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`--- When the ship is moored at the jetty, the ship's gas dangerous space or zone is added to the jetty's hazardous area. (For definition of the ship's gas dangerous space or zone, reference should be made to the IMO code: Annex B: Reference 7.) The hazardous area on the terminal and jetty is classified in two types: a) zone 1, for areas where the risk of an explosive atmosphere exists during normal operation; b) zone 2, for areas where an explosive atmosphere could occur in the event of deviation from normal operation. For definition of these hazardous areas, reference shall be made to prEN 1127-1 and prEN 50145. Within the jetty area, the electrical equipment shall be set out in accordance with EN 50014 to EN 50020, EN 50028, EN 50039, EN 50054, EN 50056 to EN 50058 taking into account the zone where it is used and for non electrical equipment in accordance with prEN 1127-1. The electrical equipment on the ship should be in accordance with the relevant Gas Code as published by IMO. 7 Safety precautions Copyright British Standards Institution Provided by IHS Markit under license with BSI - Uncontrolled Copy No reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS BSI 1997 Licensee=Lloyds Register Group Services/5989898020, User=burgess, floyd Not for Resale, 06/28/2018 03:25:47 MDT Page 6 EN 1532 : 1997 7.2.6 Weather forecast Weather forecasts shall be available to the ship and shore at intervals not exceeding 12 h. 7.2.7 Principal sources of ignition Any risk of sparking in hazardous areas shall be avoided. The choice of which protection measures to use in order to avoid ignition caused by electrical and non electrical equipment is to be made according to the existing local standards and according to the nature of the hazardous area. There is a possible risk of sparking due to the difference in electrical potential between the ship and the jetty, when the loading/unloading arms are being connected or disconnected. Arrangements should be taken to avoid the risk of sparking from this source through the installation of an insulation flange between ship and shore. 7.2.8 Data transfer and communication A means of transferring data shall be provided between ship and shore. When the ship is moored at the jetty, ESD information shall be transmitted by a hard-wire data link. An oral communication system such as hand held radios shall be provided. It should have a separate back up system which may be a land line telephone. Copyright British Standards Institution Provided by IHS Markit under license with BSI - Uncontrolled Copy No reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS 7.2.9 Access A minimum of two access ways between the ship and the jetty should be provided: ± one access, provided for personnel and crew, shall be used for escape in the event of an emergency. It shall be located near to the ship's accommodation area; ± the second access, provided for operating personnel, should be located away from the immediate vicinity of the manifold area. 7.2.10 Fire and leak detection Leak and fire detection sensors should be installed in all hazardous areas as per recommendations in prEN 1473 and shall be operational at all times. The ESD resulting from fire and/or leak detection should be transferred to the ship as given in 7.2.8. The ESD shall be initiated as given in prEN 1473. 7.2.11 Fire protection Measures shall be provided to protect personnel and essential equipment from a fire, both on shore and on board ship, so that the risk of escalation of an incident is minimized. 7.2.12 Fire fighting There are four specific reasons for providing fire fighting equipment: a) to extinguish a small fire; b) to safeguard people affected by a larger fire; c) to control a fire and to prevent it from spreading, pending the arrival of the Fire Authority; d) to protect the means of access for the Fire and Emergency Services. The extent of the fire fighting equipment supplied will depend on a variety of factors and should be the subject of a hazard assessment by the terminal. The following items should be considered: e) the causes and types of fire that might be encountered; f) the escape routes for ship and shore personnel; g) the size, nature and frequency of ships using the terminal; h) the size of the berths and of the ships and their distance from other industrial hazards and population centres; i) the provision of `off site' fire fighting services including fire boats; j) the time needed to mobilize the Fire Authority; k) the emergency preparation and planning procedures.

As a minimum, the following points shall be taken into account: ± current; ± wind; ± surge due to passing ships; ± height of tides; ± waves and swell; ± change of freeboard; ± variety of ships received. The winches or capstans on the jetty area shall be suitable for operation according to the hazardous area classification in which they are located. The fenders shall be located so as to contact the hull at the frame areas on the parallel body. The fenders should leave sufficient surface area to avoid damaging the ship's hull. They shall not obscure the inlets and outlets of the ship's circulation or ballast sea water. The ship should be moored safely and in a manner which enables departure in the shortest possible time. The berth area shall be maintained at a suitable depth, to ensure sufficient underkeel clearance at all states of the tide. Page 7 EN 1532 : 1997 Permanently installed equipment for fire fighting and control should be kept ready for instant use while the ship is alongside. This equipment should be as described in prEN 1473. Portable or trailer mounted units should also be provided but only used as a backup to the permanent installation and for dealing with small fires. A plan showing the location and type of all fire fighting equipment on or adjacent to the jetty should be permanently displayed at the berth, along with any necessary instructions and fire procedures. A safety plan should be available onboard the ship, in accordance with applicable IMO conventions. 7.2.13 Protection from leakage and spillage of LNG Means of protection shall be provided both on the ship and on shore to minimize the consequences of spillage and leakage of LNG. A procedure shall be agreed both on ship and on shore to minimize any damage resulting from spillage, bearing in mind the effect LNG has on non cryogenic steels, i.e. brittle fracture. Means of protecting the deck of the ship in the manifold area should be provided together with means of diverting any spillage overboard. --`,``,`,,,,,``,,``,``,``,```,`-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`--- 7.2.14 General safety philosophy and procedures for stopping ship/shore transfer 7.2.14.1 General The methods of isolation and disconnection are described below and are further defined by a flow diagram in annex A. 7.2.14.2 Standard procedure of disconnection Except in cases of emergency, standard operating procedures shall be used to stop the transfer of LNG. The design of the pipework and loading/unloading arms shall allow for the safe stoppage of LNG transfer and the return of all the arms to the normal empty position in the shortest possible time. The design shall also consider the effect of ice formation on the arms, where necessary. During LNG transfer the number of non-LNG connections between ship and shore shall be restricted to the minimum to minimize the time of disconnection. By way of guidance, the normal disconnecting operation should be completed in about 1 h.

ESD directly affects the procedures used in the transfer of LNG, as follows: a) the function of the ESD is mainly: ± to stop the ship's gas compressors and the terminal's pumps if the ship is being loaded; ± to stop the ship's pumps and terminal's gas compressors if the ship is being unloaded; ± to close the ship's ESD valves on the manifold; ± to close the shore ESD valves. Allowances shall be made to avoid surge pressures developing during this operation; ± to drain the arms, if operationally required; b) the ESD should be arranged so as to be manually operated from a number of control points; c) the events that should automatically initiate the ESD are: ± fire detection; ± detection of the first threshold of drift (abnormal displacement of the ship); ± high level in ship or shore storage tanks; ± detection of liquid spills; ± high and low pressure or vacuum in ship or shore storage tanks; ± loss of electric or control power on ship or shore; d) the indication of an ESD is sent to the main control room, the ship's cargo control room and the jetty control centre. The ESD can also be initiated manually from each of these control rooms and will always automatically initiate all the ESD functions. Transmission of the alarm shall be by an effective two-way data transfer link, one for sending the alarm and another for returning the ESD command. ESD systems shall be designed to operate during a fire at a temperature ranging from 1100 ÊC to 350 ÊC for a period of 1,5 to 10 min respectively.

If following the operation of an ESD, an emergency condition still exists, the arms should be disconnected using the emergency release system (ERS). The ERS is either automatically activated by the range monitoring system or manually operated from the jetty control panel, the main control room or the ship's cargo control room. The disconnection of the ERS may be hazardous in the event of untimely operation, therefore provisions shall be taken to prevent false operation. Two disconnecting conditions need to be considered: ± disconnection after draining of the arms; in this case, the arm is disconnected in the empty condition (emergency empty unbalanced condition, see annex A); ± disconnection before draining of the arms; in this case, the arm is disconnected in the full condition (emergency full unbalanced condition, annex A); ± physical disconnection shall not be activated until the two ball valves in the ERC assembly are proved closed. (In this regard, reference should be made to prEN 1474.) 7.2.14.5 Emergency release procedure before ESD initiation and completion (ERP2) In order to achieve the maximum protection for the terminal, in the case of excessive drift of the ship or for other reasons, the emergency release procedure can be initiated before completion of the ESD cycle. Initiation is automatically set by the range monitoring system or manually operated from the jetty control panel or the main control room. Immediate release of the arms shall be followed by raising the arms into the stored position to avoid the risk of colliding with the ship's structure when it leaves the berth. The departure of the ship can only proceed in safe conditions and with the authority of the ship's master. 7.2.15 Material of construction All the ship and shore piping equipment in contact with LNG shall be made of suitable material, as described in EN 1160. --`,``,`,,,,,``,,``,``,``,```,`-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`--- 7.2.16 LNG loading/unloading arms Only rigid articulated piping shall be used for LNG transfer operations between ship and shore as defined in prEN 1474. 7.3 Additional precautions Additional precautions may be required as identified by the Hazard Analysis carried out by the terminal. To allow for the quick departure of the ship in the safest possible way, all the ship/shore connections should be equipped with a quick release system. Copyright British Standards Institution Provided by IHS Markit under license with BSI - Uncontrolled Copy No reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS Consideration should be given to the following items: ± quick release of the mooring system (only on shore); ± quick retraction gangway; ± quick disconnection of electric cables; ± quick release of all other ship/shore connections. The ERS valves may be closed in the ESD sequence to allow for an emergency release if this is required. NOTE. The purpose of the additional precautions is, among other things, to enable the ship to be released from all of her connections with the terminal within the shortest possible time without any increased risk. The release of the ship can only be achieved with the full knowledge and agreement of the ship's master. 8 Ship equipment 8.1 Ship's mooring equipment The ship may be moored using either steel wire ropes provided with synthetic tails or by ropes made from synthetic material. It is usually found that nylon tails of about 11 m are satisfactory for this purpose. The terminal may be equipped with systems allowing the continuous verification of the mooring tensions. This information may be monitored by the terminal and fed back to the ship. A towing-off wire should be rigged by the ship at both bow and stern with the eye of the wire rope maintained just above sea level to facilitate easy connection by tugs in the event of an emergency. 8.2 Ship's working platform and cargo manifold arrangements Careful consideration should be given to the position of the ship in the berth and its position relative to the manifold. In this respect, the management of the mooring arrangements is of utmost importance. The ship's manifold should be specified in accordance with OCIMF recommendations. The ship's manifold support shall be designed to withstand the induced loads. These may be due to the LNG in the transfer arms, possible ice formulation, wind effect on the arms, and ship's drift and yaw. The ship shall be equipped with flanges suitable for connection with the shore arms transfer. The arms shall be mechanically connected to the ship as described in prEN 1474. 8.3 Motor operated valves (MOV) for ESD Emergency shut down valves at each manifold, both liquid and gas, shall be capable of both local and remote operation.
