located at or near the bottom of the vessel to minimize the probability of ice clogging. It is<br />

recommended that vessels have a cooling Kingston Valve Arrangement - See IMO.<br />

• Ice resistant coating on waterline - The water line of the vessel from the laden to the ballast<br />

levels is to be coated with an ice resistant low friction coating. Inerta 160 paint is strongly<br />

recommended. Area covered at the forward end to be suitably extended.<br />

• Steel - The steel used in the main deck and upper sides is to be confirmed as having<br />

adequate toughness for operation in an ambient air temperature of -25°C or heating is to be<br />

applied to keep the surface temperature of the steel above -10°C with an external ambient<br />

temperature of -25°C.<br />

• Crew - To be provided with "Arctic" clothing and to be trained in cold weather precautions.<br />

• General piping and cabling - Maximum use to be made of the under deck passageways,<br />

trunk-ways, forecastle space, etc. for routing and installing piping, cabling and equipment, to<br />

minimise exposure to the elements.<br />

• Exposed fresh water piping - To be protected against freezing in outside air temperature of -<br />

25ºC and wind of 20 m/sec by trace heating or running in protected areas.<br />

• Cargo system - Operation of valves, vents, gauges to be able to operate in -25°C with 20ms-1<br />

wind speed. Heat tracing recommended.<br />

• Ballast system - The risk of ballast tank water freezing for the tanks of a 145,000 Moss type<br />

vessel is not considered to be great due to the short transit time in cold weather. SEIC<br />

however recommends an air bubbling system be fitted in the ballast tanks to reduce the risk of<br />

ballast water freezing. If no physical system is fitted then ullage is to be kept in the ballast<br />

tanks to enable the tanks to be raised in level prior to discharge. The vent pipes and heads<br />

are to be prevented from freezing and all valves and all exposed gauges are to be capable of<br />

operation at -25ºC and wind of 20 m/sec.<br />

• Fresh water and distilled water tanks - Measures to be taken to prevent freezing if to air and<br />

sea temperatures of -25ºC and -2ºC respectively. If necessary wing speed of wind of 20<br />

m/sec to be considered. Heat balance calculations to be carried out. Vent pipe heads shall be<br />

protected by covers. Consideration to circulation systems to be given.<br />

• Diesel oil tanks - To be fitted with heating facilities having sufficient capacity to maintain a<br />

temperature of 10ºC at design air and sea temperatures of -25ºC and -2ºC respectively unless<br />

heat balance calculations show otherwise. If necessary wing speed of wind of 20 m/sec to be<br />

considered. Vent pipe heads shall be protected by covers.<br />

• Other fuel oil and lubricating oil tanks - Heat balance calculations to be done to show that<br />

tanks will not freeze at air and sea temperatures of -25ºC and -2ºC respectively. If necessary<br />

wing speed of wind of 20 m/sec to be considered. Tank vent pipe heads to be protected<br />

against freezing.<br />

• Other exposed tanks - Heat balance calculations to be done to show that tanks will not freeze<br />

at air and sea temperatures of -25ºC and -2ºC respectively. If necessary wind speed of 20<br />

m/sec to be considered in design. Tank vent pipe heads to be protected against freezing.<br />

• Auxiliary machinery - Auxiliary machineries and their systems eg. D/G, Fans etc. to be<br />

operable and suitable for outside air temperature of -25ºC and wind speed of 20 m/sec.<br />

• Electric space heaters - Heating shall be provided for rooms such as the emergency<br />

generator and steering gear rooms to maintain a temperature of 3ºC at an outside air<br />

temperature of –25ºC and a sea water temperature of -2ºC with wind speed of 20 m/sec. All<br />

electric heaters are to be provided with independent high temperature overheat trips.<br />

Consideration shall be given to maintaining a temperature of at least 3 °C for spaces such as<br />

the laundries, dry stores and forecastle spaces.<br />

• Deck part heating requirement - Consideration to be given to heating of the deck stores, deck<br />

bunker lines and deck hydraulic lines.<br />

• Deck machinery - Deck cranes and stores cranes to be operable at -25°C and 20ms-1 wind<br />

speed. Recommend hydraulic lines to be heated and a sheltered heated cab fitted. Note hose<br />

handling cranes maybe used in ship to ship cargo transfer therefore essential that the hose<br />

handling cranes are suitable for low temperature operation. Low temperature use of other<br />
