7 2. SAFETY AND SECURITY 2.1 General Shell Lillesund Terminal Information Booklet Responsibility for the safe conduct of operations whilst a ship is alongside Lillesund Terminal rests jointly with the Master of the ship and the responsible Terminal Representative. Therefore, before operations start, both ship and shore representatives should ensure that there is full co-operation and understanding of the safety requirements set out in the Ship/Shore Safety Check List which are based on safe practices widely accepted by the oil and tanker industries. The Master is expected to adhere strictly to these requirements throughout the stay alongside, Lillesund Terminal personnel will do likewise and co-operate fully with the ship in the mutual interest of safe and efficient operations. Before the start of operations, and from time to time thereafter, for our mutual safety, the Terminal Representative together with a responsible Ship s Officer, will make a routine inspection of the ship to ensure that the questions on the Ship/Shore Safety Check List can be answered in the affirmative. Where corrective action is needed, the Terminal may not agree to operations commencing or, should they have been started, may require them to be stopped. Similarly, if the Master considers safety is endangered by any action on the part of Shell engaged staff or by any equipment under Shell s control, the Master should demand immediate cessation of operations until the situation is rectified. Repeat checks of those items marked in the Ship Shore Safety Check List will be carried out by both ship and shore personnel at intervals not exceeding 4 hours. 2.2 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) The following minimum dress code shall be adhered to by ship s personnel while on duty alongside Lillesund Terminal: Boiler suit or trousers and long-sleeved shirt. Suitable shoes, preferably safety shoes or boots with steel toe caps. Life jacket or buoyancy aid when working in such risk identified areas. Personnel engaged in operations are actively encouraged to utilise PPE to the fullest extent during cargo transfer, hose handling and mooring operations. This includes the wearing of safety helmets and safety goggles. Visitors to the Lillesund Terminal are required to follow the safe route, which is clearly marked. 2.3 Port and Terminal Security AS Norske Shell, Lillesund Depot, IMO Port Facility No. NOKAS-0015, is a security regulated port as set out in the Marine Security Act of 2004 and associated Regulations. In accordance with this Act, the Lillesund Terminal is designated a restricted zone and unauthorised access is an offence. In line with the ISPS Code, the following three security levels are adopted: a) Security Level 1 Normal The level for which standard security measures shall be maintained at all times. b) Security Level 2 Heightened The level for which appropriate addition measures shall be maintained for a period of time as a result of heightened risk of a security incident. For the Lillesund Terminal, this will include additional security guards and patrols with greater scrutiny of port users. c) Security Level 3 Exceptional The level for which further additional security measures shall be maintained for a limited period of time when a security incident is probable or imminent, although it may not be possible to identify the specific target. For the Lillesund Terminal, this may result in the removal of a ship from the berth or the delay in a ship berthing. Page7

8 In order that ship and Port security plans can be coordinated, information will be exchanged during the pre-transfer conference. 2.4 Personnel and Vehicular Access The Lillesund Terminal is within a secure area and is responsible for controlling access onto the berth and issuing ship s crew and visitors with the necessary security passes. On arrival alongside, the Master should provide the Terminal Representative with a crew list and details of any visitors expected during the port stay. Access to the Lillesund Terminal is only available through the main gate and all crew, visitors and contractors are required to report via the gate intercom. Permission to access the terminal from the vessel must be requested via the jetty operato.r Vehicles are not allowed on the jetty area without any permit at any time, no vehicles are permitted on jetty during cargo or bunkering operations. Access to Lillesund Terminal will be denied to any person suspected of being affected by alcohol or drugs. Personnel walking within the terminal area must follow the marked lines, which lead you to the gate or taxi area. Page8

11 5. BERTHING AND MOORING 5.1 General Description of Berth Shell Lillesund Terminal Information Booklet The Shell Lillesund terminal is located 5 km Vest of Haugesund. The berth is orientated at 62 25; N and 05* 16 Ø and jetty front has a total length of 60 metres. The berth is constructed on piles and fenders consist of Dump truck tyres. Mooring bollards are located along the berth facing for the stern lines, mooring points on shore side for brest and headlines when moored in western direction. See Appendix for minimum required mooring configuration plan. 5.2 Berth Limitations The following limitations are applicable at the Shell Lillesund: Vessel limiting criteria Maximum Displacement Maximum vessel permitted Draft Minimum Under Keel Clearance Minimum water depth alongside at LAT (Lowest Astronomical Tide) Minimum water depht in approach channel Minimum water depth in approach channel Maximum Length Overall (LOA max) Minimum Length Overall (LOA min) Maximum Bow to Centre Manifold (BCM) Minimum Parallel Body Length Maximum Beam Maximum Allowable Manifold Height above the Water Maximum Air Draft 22,000 tonnes 8.9 m 0.5 m 10.3 m 9.1 m from South, > 20 meters from North 150 m N/A N/A N/A N/A Not applicable Ship hoses. N/A 5.3 Tugs and Towage There is no minimum requirement on tugs set by the port authority of Haugesund for the application of the port jurisdiction area. Although Lillesund terminal will require vessel above length 80 m without any working bow thruster to use minimum one tug for mooring and unberthing operation. Vessels above 140m LOA would be expected to have one effective working bow thrusters and a high angle rudder, alternative stern thruster, two propellers etc, vessel not having both in good working condition should have minimum one tug for berthing and unberthing operations. The terminal tug requirement may be increased according to the individual Master/Pilot judgements, with vessel manoeuvring capability and weather conditions etc. In case the vessel is not able to manoeuvre due to defect or malfunctioning steering, the vessel has to inform terminal staff immediately who takes the necessary decisions for further action. 5.4 Provision of Mooring Crews Page11

12 Ship using the mooring buoy would require mooring line boat with mooring crew would be required for securing of berthing and should be contacted by the Ship s Agent at least 2 hours before the ship s arrival at the berth. Terminal personnel will manage unmooring operation. 5.5 Mooring Tankers moored at Lillesund Terminal are required, as a minimum, to comply, with the mooring arrangements detailed in the Mooring Plans in Appendix 3. Ships normally berth port side alongside. The Master is responsible for ensuring that the ship remains securely moored throughout the stay alongside. The Master must ensure that all moorings are regularly tended and maintained in a taut condition. Mooring lines of the same size and material must always be used for all leads in the same service. 5.6 Provision of Ship/Shore Access Tankers moored at Lillesund Terminal are required to provide a suitable gangway to enable safe access between ship and shore, complete with suitable safety net and lifebuoy. 5.7 Environmental Criteria for Berthing Operations Wind direction Wind Speed Tankers up to LOA 150 m / tons displ º <16 m/s Berthing accepted 0-360º >16 m/s No berthing operations permitted Above table are maximum wind conditions permitted during berthing. Although on each occasion the environmental conditions or ship specific issues may require lower wind criteria as evaluated by vessel master or terminal representative. Area is generally not affected by fog but limited visibly may occur during heavy snowfall or sea mist in cold winter days. A general advice of minimum visibility of 0.2 NM will apply for berthing operations. 5.8 Maximum berthing speed During the final approach to the jetty the approach speed should be minimised in order to reduce the forces on the jetty. See appendix Under Keel Clearance (UKC) policy Minimum 0.5m clearance should be maintained between vessel keel and seabed at all times. In periods with exceptional low water the drafts should be reduced accordingly, arriving vessel not able to comply with terminal UKC policy may not enter the port until the water level is sufficient Emergency towing pennant / Fire wires Terminal has the same position as OCIMF in the use of emergency towing pennants also commonly referred to as fire wires, vessel are free to rig then if they would wish to but there is no requirement from terminal Over the tide cargo operations Not permitted at terminal Tide table available on follow link: Page12

13 6. COMMUNICATIONS WHILE BERTHED 6.1 General During the pre-transfer conference, the terminal representative and the ship cargo officer has to agree on primary communication system and preferably use portable VHF/UHF radio. The ship s Duty Officer must keep the radio at all times. The radio is to be used for cargo transfer and emergency use only. Identification of the name of the ship should always be included in communications to avoid any misunderstanding. The shore identity is Lillesund terminal. A secondary means of voice communication will be verbal via jetty operator. 6.2 Ship/Shore Safety Check List and Operational Agreements On arrival at the berth, the Terminal representative will present the ship with a copy of a folder containing the following documents: Safety Letter to Master Regulations on pollution Cargo Handling Plans ISGOTT Ship/Shore Safety Check List Port Security Requirements The various forms, information and procedures laid out in the document formalise the conduct and procedures governing ship/shore operations at the jetty, which are to be mutually agreed between shore representative and ships cargo officer before operations commence. Material safety data sheets (MSDS) are available from the terminal on request and the hazards with the associated products should be discussed and understood before start of operation. The agreements reached in the document remain in force throughout the time a ship remains alongside Lillesund Terminal. Any changes made to these agreements during the course of the cargo operation must be again agreed in writing. All items contained in the Ship/Shore Safety Check List must remain constantly under review. However, the ship and shore are required to jointly recheck those items requiring formal recheck at intervals not exceeding 4 hours. 6.3 Communications During Transfer The maintenance of good communications throughout cargo transfer operations is fundamental to ensuring the safety of the activity. During cargo operations, if for any reason it becomes necessary to stop cargo in an emergency, the party requesting the stop should notify the other party by UHF/VHF radio, or any other means, requesting Emergency Stop. All transfer pumps must be immediately stopped and ship and shore manifolds closed until the situation is investigated and joint agreement is reached on resuming operations. During the pre-transfer conference, communications procedures will be agreed for conducting specific activities and will include agreed notice periods for conducting ship or shore stops. Page13

RESPONSIBILITIES 7.1 Jurisdiction Shell Lillesund Terminal Information Booklet Norway is a signatory to the Memorandum for Port State Control and in addition to terminal inspections; masters can expect governmental inspections to be undertaken aimed at confirming that ship meets all relevant international standards. 7.2 Conditions of Ship Acceptance Ships are accepted at Lillesund Terminal on the understanding that operations will be conducted in accordance with all applicable legislation, together with practices contained in relevant Codes of Practice, in particular, the guidance contained within the latest edition of the International Safety Guide for Oil Tankers and Terminals (ISGOTT). Ships found with deficiencies on arrival may be subject to refusal until the deficiencies have been rectified, terminal manager has the right to reject any ships from berthing at the terminal that is considered substandard. 7.3 Responsibilities As stated in the Safety Letter, responsibility for the safe conduct of operations whiles the ship is at Lillesund Terminal rests jointly with the Master of the ship and with the responsible Terminal Representative. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the completion of a safe and successful cargo transfer operation is dependant upon effective Co-operation, Co-ordination and Communication between all parties involved. All operations should be conducted in the spirit of this mutual agreement. 7.4 Responsibility for Loading and Discharge Ship's personnel are advised that responsibility for the loading and discharge operation on board the ship rests solely and absolutely with the Master. It is the responsibility of the ship's personnel to operate valves and to ensure safe and secure connection of all transfer equipment to the ship s manifold. Ship's personnel are advised that the responsibility for the discharge or escape of oil from a vessel rests with the ship. In the event of a prosecution being taken by the appropriate authorities, heavy penalties together with liability for dispersal costs and damages for pollution damage, is provided for by legislation. 8. OPERATIONS ALONGSIDE 8.1 General All operations at Lillesund Terminal will be carried out fully in accord with the recommendations contained in the latest edition of the International Safety Guide for Oil Tankers and Terminals (ISGOTT). 8.2 Hose/Arm Connection On completion of mooring alongside Lillesund Terminal, the ship has to present hoses for the loading or discharge operation. It is the responsibility of the ship to ensure that the hoses are pressure tested to ISGOTT standard and appropriate for the intended use, appropriate certificates should be presented to the shore officer prior to any cargo operation. Ships crew are responsible for its hoses are manoeuvred and connected/disconnected safely and are correctly rigged onboard the ship. Similarly, terminal personnel are responsible for ensuring the hoses are connected and disconnected at the terminal and onboard the ship if it is terminal hoses. Page14

15 8.3 Cargo Handling Facilities Shell Lillesund Terminal Information Booklet Lillesund Terminal contains a manifold for the shorelines serving the terminal. These comprise of the following: Line No. Line Diameter Max.

At no time, should rates exceed the Terminal s maximum rate of 850 m 3 /hr for white products. Rates will also be established for starting transfer and will take into account the need for precautions when handling grades defined as static accumulators. If applicable, procedures for the final topping-off of shore tanks will also be established and agreed.] 8.5 Checks on Quantities Transferred Unless otherwise agreed during the pre-transfer conference, ships should provide the Terminal with information regarding the amount of cargo that has been discharged, by grade, on the hour, every hour. The terminal will provide the ship with comparable shore figures. If the exchange of information reveals a sudden or significant difference between the terminal and the ship s figures on quantities transferred, operations will be stopped until a satisfactory explanation can be found 8.6 Environmental Criteria for Suspending Operations and leave berth Suspend Cargo Operations Disconnect cargo Hoses Vessel depart Berth (if safe to do so) Wind Speed >16m/s >16m/s >20m/s Accumulation of gases in area Electrical Storm Swell Still air conditions N/A N/A Loading/discharging operations have to be suspended on the approach of electrical storms/ lightning, regardless of whether or not an IG (inert gas) and/or vapour control system is in use. All tank openings, tank-venting systems and manifold valves must be closed. If the swell conditions create vessel movements, which concerns the safe mooring loading and discharge operations has to be suspended and hoses/arms disconnected. Vessel departure should be considered. Irrespective of measured wind speed, if either the ship s Master or the Terminal representative considers that the prevailing conditions potentially threaten the safety of operations, transfer should be suspended and hoses disconnected. Further details on Still air conditions, Electrical storm and Wave /swell Ref chapter Emergency Shutdown Page15

16 Arrangements at Lillesund Terminal do not include a remote means for stopping shore transfer pumps. In the event of an emergency, the Terminal shall be advised immediately by UHF radio and stating Emergency Stop. Transfer operations shall be halted immediately in event of any of the following, but not restricted to: Cargo spillage or suspected cargo spillage. Fire or explosion on the vessel or in the Terminal. Failure of the ship / shore communication system. Vessel not securely moored, such as mooring lines not properly tended etc Loss of electrical power at the terminal or onboard the vessel Deck watch absent. I the event of an emergency shutdown the import valves for the terminal tanks will close when the emergency switch has been triggered. The valves shutdown period are designed to give acceptable surge conditions however systems onboard the ship must be able to withstand these possible conditions. 8.8 Dry Certificates Ships are advised that Terminal staff or their representatives will not sign any Dry Certificate or other documentation attesting to the condition of ship s tanks on completion of discharge or prior to loading. In situations where there may be an conflict with vessel management system it is encouraged to note that terminal refused to sign such Dry Certificate, alternative issue a letter of protest which terminal representative my sign for receipt only. 8.9 Handling of Ship s Stores and Spare Gear Supplies or ship provisions may be transported on to the berth of the terminal when it s not in violation with the safety regulations and permission given from terminal representative. Ships crane may be used for lifting ship supplies and equipment when the terminal has given permission for such operation. However no lifting of any equipment that may ignite sparks such as drums, steel, pipes etc may take place during any cargo operations Craft Alongside No vessels or small craft are allowed alongside a ship moored at Lillesund Terminal while cargo operations are in progress. Prior to the commencement of, or on completion of, all cargo and ballast operations, small craft may be permitted to come alongside for the purpose of transferring stores, subject to permission of the Terminal Garbage Reception Facilities The depots will accept non-special wastes in reasonable amounts from vessels free of charge. This includes both tankers and customers wishing to dispose of waste Potable Water Fresh water is available at Lillesund Terminal berth on request Bunkers and Lubricating Oils No bunker barges are allowed alongside vessels during any cargo operations, sampling, ullaging or connecting/disconnecting. Page16

17 Lube oil of the most common qualities (engine-, hydraulic- and gear oil) can be delivered at the berth but has to be ordered in advance. Lube oil from barrels/ tanks/ tanker trucks etc. are delivered trough a 2 hose with a 2-4 connection. Bunker qualities available: GO. Bunker is available from a 3 hose, and the maximum capacity is 120 M3/h It is the vessels responsibility to arrange for suitable connections Slops and Ballast Reception Facilities There are no facilities at Lillesund Terminal or within Port Haugesund for the receipt of slops or dirty ballast ashore. In the event of disposal of waste oils, sludge, slops and other hazardous waste etc this has to be arranged via local agents and certified company for disposal on vessel account. Permission for access and safe operation has to be granted by terminal Consideration to our neighbours The terminal is located close to residential areas and every effort to reduce the environmental impact to our neighbours is appreciated. During your vessels stay at the terminal we strongly urge you to consider minimising noise from your vessel as much as practicable possible this would include cargo pumps, ventilation and funnel noise without jeopardizing vessel safe operation. Smoke and soot from vessels funnel should be minimised. Page17

18 9. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS 9.1 Smoking Shell Lillesund Terminal Information Booklet Smoking is strictly prohibited in the berth area and on board ships alongside Lillesund Terminal except in those spaces on board that are specifically designated by the Master and Terminal Representative as "Smoking Areas. Notices identifying the designated places must be conspicuously placed. Failure to comply with this regulation will involve cessation of operations and may result in the ship being removed from the berth pending a complete investigation and receipt of written assurance from the Master that effective controls have been established. Largården Terminal reserves the right, to prohibit smoking, at any time, in any place on board a ship and adjacent to the terminal. Smoking is also prohibited in any place within the Terminal and berth areas, except designated areas as directed. 9.2 Use of Matches and Lighters Under no circumstances are members of the ship s crew allowed to carry matches, lighters, inflammable liquid or any other similar sources of ignition while within Lillesund Terminal area. Visitors to ships at Lillesund Terminal are required to leave matches and lighters at the jetty gate. 9.3 Drug and Alcohol Policy All ships chartered by Shell or calling at Shell terminals must have an established Drug and Alcohol policy. Masters are advised that operations will cease if it is considered that the actions of a person or persons involved in operations are not under proper control as a result of the use of alcohol/drugs and or fatigue. Operations will not resume until the matter has been reported to and fully investigated by relevant authorities and the Terminal Representative considers it safe to do so. Delay or cancellation of a ship's departure could result. Access to Lillesund Terminal will be denied to any person suspected of being affected by alcohol or drugs. 9.4 Portable Electrical Equipment, including Phones and Pagers Only approved intrinsically safe or EX rated electrical equipment may be used on Lillesund Terminal or within the hazardous zone of the ship. Portable electrical equipment, including computers, mobile phones, pagers and cameras, if not certified intrinsically safe, must be switched off and may only be used within: Permanent buildings as designated by the Terminal Manager. Areas on the ship designated by the Master. 9.5 Environmental Protection Ships entering the waters of Kingdom of Norway must comply with the laws concerning environmental protection, as contained in the National pollution Act. The Master of a ship at Lillesund Terminal must comply with the provisions of the above Act. In particular, he must not: cause or permit waste of any kind to be discharged from the ship into port waters. cause or permit a person to pump or discharge any oil, spirit or any flammable liquid into port waters. allow the ship to emit excessive funnel smoke. In the event of any contravention, the Terminal may instruct offending ships to vacate the berth or prohibit them from returning to Lillesund. Page18

19 9.6 Adverse Weather The Terminal Representative has access to regular weather updates and ships will be advised accordingly should adverse weather be expected. Any decision to leave the berth and port will be taken in consultation with the ship s Master and Terminal representative. In the event that the ship has to stay within the port, consultation between Master of the ship, pilots and terminal representative of appropriate corrective actions has to be taken. Consideration should be given to additional moorings, supporting tugs and vessel engine and crew in stand-by. 9.7 Still Air Conditions If there is little air movement, petroleum gas may persist on deck in heavy concentrations on ships that are loading volatile products or ballasting tanks that have previously contained volatile products. Consideration should be given on products that may create smell issues, which may concern our neighbour s. Consideration may have to be given to stop operations while these conditions persist. 9.8 Electrical Storms All cargo transfer operations, including the ballasting of non-gas-free cargo tanks will be stopped in the event of an approaching electrical storm, regardless of whether or not an IG (inert gas) and/or vapour control system is in use. All tank openings, vent outlets, cargo and manifold valves will be closed until such time as the storm has passed. 9.9 Wave and swell If the swell conditions create vessel movements, which concerns the safe mooring or exceeds the safe moving criteria of the loading hoses/ arms, loading and discharge operations should be suspended and the loading hoses/ arms disconnected. Page19

20 10. APPLICABLE TERMINAL REGULATIONS 10.1 Ullaging and Sampling Wherever possible, the ullaging and sampling of ship s tanks should be achieved by the use of closed sampling equipment. Under no circumstances are shore personnel to open any tank or vapour lock without approval from the ship s officer on duty. When it is not possible to undertake closed gauging and/or sampling operations, open gauging systems will need to be employed and the precautions detailed in ISGOTT must be adhered to. Shore staff and surveyors will draw cargo tank ullages and samples immediately after mooring when safe access to the shore is provided. The Master is requested to have adequate personnel and appropriate closed sampling and ullaging equipment available as a priority to facilitate this operation Closed Operations The loading, discharging and/or ballasting of ship s cargo tanks must be conducted under closed conditions. The use of manual gauging/sampling of cargo tanks via sighting, ullage ports or similar openings is not permitted. Barges loading and discharging non-volatile products may operate in open condition, outmost care should be considered to minimise personnel exposure to vapours Inert Gas If a ship is fitted with an inert gas system then this system must be fully operational (in accordance with Class requirements) and used at all times. In the event that a ship s inert gas system is not functioning, or not functioning as required, cargo operations must cease immediately and may not resume until the system is repaired or written permission is given from the ship s owners and the terminal State of Readiness of Main Engines The main engines and other essential machinery of all ships alongside must be maintained in a state of readiness for vacating the berth at short notice Maintenance and Repair Work Onboard Major planned repair work is not permitted while the ship is alongside Lillesund Terminal. Emergency repairs, namely essential repairs needed to rectify malfunctioning equipment and prevent hazardous or unsafe conditions, will be permitted on a case-by-case basis following approval by the Terminal Representative Hot Work Onboard No task identified as Hot work according to ISGOTT is permitted on board ships alongside Lillesund Terminal Tank Cleaning, Purging and Gas Freeing Tank cleaning, gas freeing or purging operations are not permitted on board any ships while alongside Lillesund Terminal Enclosed space entry No entry into any enclosed space as per ISGOTT definition is allowed on the ship when alongside the terminal Cargo tank high level alarms Every vessel involved in cargo operations alongside the terminal should have operational cargo tank high level alarms fitted that are independent from the main gauging system. Alarms should be tested prior to operation and be operational both during loading and discharging operations. Page20
