Book Oil Spill Risks From Tank Vessel Lightering

Download or read book Oil Spill Risks From Tank Vessel Lightering written by Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1998-11-24 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The safety record of lightering (the transfer of petroleum cargo at sea from a large tanker to smaller ones) has been excellent in U.S. waters in recent years, as evidenced by the very low rate of spillage of oil both in absolute terms and compared with all other tanker-related accidental spills. The lightering safety record is likely to be maintained or even improved in the future as overall quality improvements in the shipping industry are implemented. Risks can be reduced even further through measures that enhance sound lightering standards and practices, support cooperative industry efforts to maintain safety, and increase the availability of essential information to shipping companies and mariners. Only continued vigilance and attention to safety initiatives can avert serious accidents involving tankers carrying large volumes of oil.

  • Publisher : BiblioGov
  • Release : 2013-07
  • ISBN : 9781289170653
  • Pages : 40 pages

Download or read book Natural Resources and Environment written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent accidents in the Delaware River and Bay raised questions regarding operations of oil tankers in those waters. More than 4,000 vessels arrive yearly at the ports along the Delaware, about 40 percent of which are oil tankers. From 1973 to 1976, 180 oil pollution incidents involving tankers were reported, seven of these with oilspills of more than 10,000 gallons. In most cases, the Coast Guard attributed the primary cause to human error or equipment failure. Coast Guard activities for protection of the environment and safety of vessels include: inspecting a sample of U.S. and foreign tankers; monitoring a percentage of liquid bulk transfer operations involving oil or hazardous substances; and performing periodic inspections of the structure, machinery, and equipment of all U.S. ships. Since January 1977, the Coast Guard has expanded its programs of inspection and safety requirements. The Coast Guard is working to improve aids to navigation on the Delaware River and Bay, and the Corps of Engineers has recently received approval for a project to improve one of the anchorages on the river. The safety of oil shipping and transfer operations on the Delaware River have not changed materially over the years 1973 to 1976; steps taken since January 1977 should improve safety in this area.
