Apply to WG 153C on the Design and Assessment of Marine Liquid and Gas Terminals Handling Green Fuels and Fossil-Based Cargos
/
The Maritime Navigation Commission of PIANC (MarCom) has opened the member nomination
process for MarCom Working Group 153C on “Recommendations For The Design and Assessment of Marine Liquid and Gas Terminals Handling Green Fuels and Fossil-Based Cargos.”
The Working Group report will provide an update to the recent PIANC report No. 153B-2022 “Recommendations for the Design and Assessment of Marine Oil, Gas, & Petrochemical Terminals.” Most of the content of the just-published WG 153B report has commonality with these green fuels terminals; however, additional guidance must be added to address the unique physical and safety aspects of these cargoes. For this reason it is recommended to add green fuels to the scope of the just-published document rather than publish a separate document solely devoted to green fuels terminals, which would be too repetitive with the current document.
The objectives for the update of Report No. 153B-2022 “Recommendations for the Design and Assessment of Marine Oil, Gas, & Petrochemical Terminals” will be as follows:
• To add green fuels terminals to the scope of the document
• Update the document based on feedback received from users
• To outline the ways these facilities can be introduced in marinas, including the
Upon completion, the updated document will provide guidance to owners and designers of all types of liquid and gas marine terminals worldwide, to facilitate the protection of public health, safety and the environment.
