2. Follow-up Correctly connected bunkering<br />
Earlier, the inland navigation industry proposed the topic of 'Correctly connected bunkering' to include<br />
in the CESNI work programme (PT 8). This topic was previously coordinated with your committee<br />
(mails 9 April and 27 May 2021).<br />
Reminder of the problem<br />
During bunkering of liquids (fuel, lubricating oil or drinking water), overfills of bunker tanks occur on<br />
a regular basis due to incorrect connection by the crew of the vessel. The root cause of these incidents<br />
is that the filling connections for lubricating oil, (drinking water) and gas oil are of the same technical<br />
design on inland vessels. Therefore it is possible that a crew member of an inland vessel makes a<br />
mistake by connecting the hose for gasoil to the wrong filling pipe. Different filling connections are<br />
difficult to distinguish from each other. Clear legislation is lacking for lubricating oil connections,<br />
compare to gasoil connections (see Article 8.05 (6) ES-TRIN). Later this year, this topic will be discussed<br />
within the CESNI/PT working group. It will be proposed to add a paragraph to Article 8.06 ES-TRIN<br />
(lubricating oil tanks, pipes and accessories). This table shows the intended addition to Article 8.06 ES-<br />
TRIN in four languages:<br />
Please read the CONCEPT communication from the IWT Platform: Requirements for filling<br />
connections (lubricating oil) - Proposal of amendment. Should you have any comments on this, we<br />
would be pleased to hear from you no later than 31 October <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
