2. Preface
The transportation of chemicals is technically and logistically different from the transportation of oil and oil products. Chemical tankers are more advanced in many ways. The cargoes may be hazardous and noxious chemicals or such products as edible oils and fats. A common characteristic of these cargoes is that they tend to be high value and require sophisticated handling for safety, health and loss prevention reasons. The ships are complex and technologically advanced due to the degree of subdivision created by 50+ cargo tanks. They are inherently more robust vessels compared to bulk tankers. This large number of cargo tanks, sophisticated cargo operating systems and supply of deck services enable them to carry a broad range of chemicals, in accordance with the requirements of the International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Cargoes in Bulk (IBC/BCH Code), and in strict accordance with anti-pollution regulations under MARPOL Annex II. Every chemical cargo carried requires careful consideration during the planning process and loading. Some are temperature sensitive some are semi-gases, some need to be inhibited, some are sensitive to water, and some react with each other. Checks also need to be made regarding the chemical ship type, (i.e. category I, II or III), tank coating compatibility, cross compatibility with other cargoes carried, environmental controls if required (inerting). In addition, the tank construction type for containment, venting requirements, gauging equipment, vapour detection, compatible fire protection medium, heating requirements, inhibition requirements, density limitations of the product in relation to the cargo tank construction, and pumping requirements are important considerations. Most of this information is set out in the IBC Code (The International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk) or BCH Code (Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk).

The vegetable oil trade represents close to 50 million tonnes. The palm oil trade represents some 60%, soybean oil some 20%, and sunflower seed 7%. Palm kernel oil, peanut oil, olive oil, cottonseed oil and coconut oil represent the remaining 23% of the market. The graphs below show a steady increase in trade of these oils in recent years.

Figure 5
Malaysia and Indonesia each account for just under one-third of the vegetable oils exported each, Argentine some 15%, and Brazil some 5%.
Figure 6
The biggest importing areas are Europe (9 m tonnes) China (7.5 m tonnes) and India 6 m tonnes), which together take about half the imports. Vegetable oils are imported by a multitude of countries the majority of which, and the smaller ones, come under the "other" category in the graph below:

Soybean oil and palm oil dominate China's vegetable oil market. Soybean oil's expected market share in 2006/07 is 37%, a 10% increase in consumption over that of last year. Palm oil's market share is forecast to grow by 2% over the current year to 24% and is expected to grow 14% year-over-year. The growth in other vegetable oils is forecast to be fairly constant for year-over-year levels. Palm oil demand is increasing primarily due to its lower price along with its use in processed foods, for example, packaged ready-to-eat noodles. Until now the low shipping costs for imported Indonesian and Malaysian palm oil give it an advantage over imported oil. A new regulatory regime with requirements for the carriage of vegetable oils with more expensive tankers will to some extent change this situation. The growth in soybean oil consumption will be captured primarily by domestic crushing facilities using imported soybeans. China represents some 19% of soybean oil production and 17% of world imports, whereas India represents only 3% of production and 20% of imports.
Transportation of vegoils
The world's biggest vegetable oil trades are the transportation of palm oil from Malaysia and Indonesia. This market has increased from some 27.5 million tonnes in 2005 to 29.4 million tonnes in 2006. The largest part of this trade is carried out by tankers with double hulls, and this share increased from 53% in 2005 to 60% in 2006. The Malaysian export of palm oil is projected to increase from 12,634 million tonnes in 2004/05 to 13,770 million tonnes in 2005/06 and 13,840 million tonnes in 2006/07, according to the Malaysian Palm Oil Board.

Vegoils are currently to a great extent being transported by single hull product tankers with no IMO type, in particular in vegoil trade from South America. Figure 10 shows that only 16% of the vegoil from South American is transported by double chemical tankers hull tankers and with IMO type.

A 30,000 tanker trading between Rio de Janeiro and Shanghai can make just over 5 trips per year. The carriage of nine million tonnes over this distance would require some 58 such tankers, just under 2 m dwt, which is just over what will be delivered in 2005 or just over the amount of tonnage that so far has been converted to double hull
November 2006
Figure 12
The graphs include tankers with IMO type that may not trade in Annex II products
According to Inge Steensland AS, the chemical tanker fleet of 26.2 m dwt with just over 1,400 tankers is increasing fast. This fleet includes both dedicated chemical tankers and swing tonnage tankers that are also trading in petroleum products. There have been record deliveries of about 1.175 m dwt or some 90 ships per year over the last three years. The deliveries are projected to increase to some 2.175 m dwt or some 133-167 ships annually in the years 2006, 2007 and 2008. Already the order book for 2009 is 70 tankers or two million dwt. The chemical tanker fleet is modern with an average age of some 11.5 years. Some 66% of the fleet is below 15 years and just under 8% more than 25 years old. The confirmed orders represent some 37% of the current fleet. If tankers are sold for decommissioning at the age of 28 years, some 0.6 to 1.0m is expected to be removed annually until 2011.

This was supported by other industry representatives and government organisations at the IMO Bulk Liquid Gas Sub-committee in 2002. Accordingly, it was agreed that the revised stripping requirements should be set at 75 litres for new buildings within the new revisions to MARPOL Annex II.
Oil-Like Substances
Oil-like substances will not exist under the revisions. Hence products like for instance Xylene, Toluene, Pentanes will all require ships holding Certificate of Fitness (CoF). Before these products culd also be carried on product tankers as oil products.
Vegetable oils
Vegetable oils will be specified and are upgraded from Appendix III (of the IBC Code) to Category Y. After 1 January 2007 all ships loading IBC Code cargoes will need to hold a Certificate of Fitness (CoF) issued under the revised requirements. The replacing of the current 5-category system (A,B,C,D and Appendix III products) with the new pollution categories has also affected what products can be carried in the different IMO ship types. The IBC Code provides standards for the construction of three types of chemical tankers generally known as IMO ship Types 1, 2 and 3.
INTERTANKO: The Revisions to MARPOL Annex II A Practical Guide November 2006 11
An IMO Ship Type 1 is a chemical tanker intended for the transportation of products considered to present the greatest overall hazard, and Type 2 and Type 3 for products of progressively lesser hazards. The quantity of cargo required to be carried in a Type 1 ship should not exceed 1,250 m3 in any one tank. An IMO Ship Type 2 is intended to transport products with appreciably severe environmental and safety hazards which require significant preventive measures to preclude escape of such cargo. The quantity of cargo required to be carried in a Type 2 ship should not exceed 3000 m3 in any one tank. An IMO Ship Type 3 is a chemical tanker intended to transport products with sufficiently severe environmental and safety hazards. These products require a moderate degree of containment to increase survival capability in a damaged condition. There is no filling restriction for chemicals assigned to Ship Type 3.

Regulation 4.1.3 in MARPOL Annex II (carriage requirements for individually identified vegetable oils)
The vegetable oils listed in Chapter 17 of the IBC Code will be regulated as Pollution Category Y and Ship Type 2. It was agreed at the IMO that the individually identified vegetable oils should in principle be carried in Ship Type 2 as mentioned earlier. However, via regulation 4.1.3 of the revised MARPOL Annex II, an Administration "may" allow the carriage of these substances in a Ship Type 3, but ONLY if the ship complies with all the requirements for a Ship Type 3, as identified in the IBC Code, except for cargo tank location. The cargo tank location shall be in accordance with regulation 4.1.3.2 of the revised MARPOL Annex II, but these ships must be constructed with double sides meeting the requirements for IMO Ship Type 2 vessels and double bottom requirements of B/15 or 2 metres (whichever is the lesser) and the Certificate of Fitness (CoF) shall indicate the exemption granted. This new regulation was proposed to alleviate any potential tonnage shortage in the vegetable oil trade resulting from the re-categorisation of many vegetable oils in the revised Annex II. Regulation 4.1.3 will not change the environmental protection requirements of the revised Annex II. It will, however, allow, subject to administration approval, IMO Type 3 ships that meet the environmental protection requirements of an IMO Type 2 ship to carry specified vegetable oils. Without the new regulation 4.1.3 all such cargoes (those indicated by footnote "k" in the revised IBC Code) would have required carriage in IMO Type 2 ships. An administration may exempt ships from the carriage requirements under Regulation 11 for ships certified to carry individually identified vegetable oils identified by the relevant footnote "k" in Chapter 17 of the IBC Code, provided the ship complies with the following conditions: "1. Subject to this regulation, the noxious liquid substance (NLS) tanker shall meet all requirements for Ship Type 3 as identified in the IBC Code except for cargo tank location; 2. Under this regulation, cargo tanks shall be located at the following distances inboard. The entire cargo tank length shall be protected by ballast tanks or spaces other than tanks that carry oil as follows: 1. Wing tanks or spaces shall be arranged such that cargo tanks are located inboard of the moulded line of the side shell plating nowhere less than 760 mm; and 2. Double bottom tanks or spaces shall be arranged such that the distance between the bottom of the cargo tanks and the moulded line of the bottom shell plating measured at right angles to the bottom shell plating is not less than B/15 (m) or 2.0 m at the centreline, whichever is the lesser. The minimum distance shall be 1.0 metre. The relevant certificate shall indicate the exemption granted."

Stripping requirements
Every ship constructed before 1 July 1986 shall be provided with a pumping and piping arrangement to ensure that each tank certified for the carriage of substances in Category X or Y does not retain a quantity of residue in excess of 300 litres in the tank and its associated piping and that each tank certified for the carriage of substances in Category Z does not retain a quantity of residue in excess of 900 litres in the tank and its associated piping. A performance test shall be required to be carried out. Every ship constructed on or after 1 July 1986 but before 1 January 2007 shall be provided with a pumping and piping arrangement to ensure that each tank certified for the carriage of substances in Category X or Y does not retain a quantity of residue in excess of 100 litres in the tank and its associated piping and that each tank certified for the carriage of substances in Category Z does not retain a quantity of residue in excess of 300 litres in the tank and its associated piping. Every ship constructed on or after 1 January 2007 shall be provided with a pumping and piping arrangement to ensure that each tank certified for the carriage of substances in Category X, Y or Z does not retain a quantity of residue in excess of 75 litres in the tank and its associated piping. After 1 January 2007, the stripping performance requirements will apply to all tankers holding a Certificate of Fitness (CoF).
Underwater discharge
The underwater discharge arrangement for tank washing water is required for pollution categories X and Y for ships keellaid before 1 January 2007. New buildings will require such for all pollution categories X, Y and Z. Category Z products will be exempted from the underwater discharge requirement, although new vessels will be required to comply. The waiver possibilities in respect of stripping performance and the underwater discharge arrangement for dedicated ships engaged in the carriage of products not involving the cleaning of cargo tanks will remain unchanged.

As figure 16 indicates, the 75 litre stripping limit is required for all new tankers with keels laid after 1 January 2007 (existing IBC Code ships will retain existing stripping limits of 150 litres for categories X, Y and 350 litres for category Z). No quantity requirement shall apply to a ship other than a chemical tanker which was constructed before 1 January 2007 but which cannot meet the requirements for the pumping and piping arrangements for substances in Category Z (referred in paragraphs 1 and 2 of the revised Regulation 12). Compliance is deemed to be reached if the tank is emptied to the most practicable extent.
Why the revisions were considered necessary; the purpose of the work of the Joint Group of Experts on the Scientific Aspects of Marine Environmental Protection (GESAMP) in revising its hazard evaluation procedure for chemical products carried by ships to bring it in line with the U.N.'s Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS);
The subsequent revaluation of all of the products listed in the current IBC Code and in the relevant sections of the MEPC.2/Circular as well as the re-evaluation of products; The relative development of a new pollution categorisation system and criteria for assigning products to these new categories; The revision of stripping requirements and discharge criteria and why it was necessary to make a number of amendments to the IBC Code, in particular the criteria for ship typing from an environmental point of view; That in the process of re-evaluation of products it was revealed that a large number of products in the IBC Code had incomplete GESAMP hazard profiles because data related to safety and/or pollution issues were missing and the subsequent efforts over the next three years by IMO and industry to provide the missing data, allowing the GESAMP hazard profiles to be completed.
The fate of any products omitted from the amended IBC Code due to missing safety and/or pollution data. They
November 2006 15
will appear in List 1 of the MEPC.2/Circular that will be issued on 31 December 2006. Products with missing data omitted from the amended IBC Code that have not yet been re-evaluated can be carried under a tripartite agreement but no such agreement should be established until confirmation has been received by the Administration that the required data have been submitted to the GESAMP/EHS Working Group.
N
That BLG.1/Circ.19 was recently issued listing those products which to date have been classified or re-classified since the adoption of the amended IBC Code in 2004 (see article in this issue). The purpose of this circular is to assist national Administrations and other stakeholders in their preparations for the entry into force of the revised MARPOL Annex II and the amended IBC Code.
Why regulation 4.1.3 of MARPOL Annex II was developed, to allow unmodified oils and fats displaying the footnote (k) in column e in Chapter 17 of the amended IBC Code to be carried on ship type 3 chemical tankers, on the condition that these chemical tankers meet all the requirements for ship type 3 and are provided with double bottom and double sides meeting the specifications laid out in regulation 4.1.3.
It also reminds that the vast majority of noxious liquid substances will now be subject to regulation; and revised stripping limits will greatly reduce the amount of residues that vessels will be allowed to discharge into the marine environment.
The Circular Letter also reiterates that the 24th session of the IMO Assembly recognised the importance of this provision, and that the 54th session of the Marine Environment Protection Committee confirmed that: .1 when an Administration agrees on an exemption, regulation 4.1.3 is the only regulation for existing and new ships to be used for vegetable oils identified by footnote (k) in column e in chapter 17 of the amended IBC Code. The document also clarifies that regulations 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 were only developed to allow Administrations to submit to the Organization a relaxation of certain provisions of an amendment under restricted conditions, for a specified period and for existing ships only, and that these regulations were not permitted to be used for the vegetable oils under footnote (k). Lastly the Circular Letter reiterates that before 1 January 2007, vessels certified to carry noxious liquid substances identified in Chapter 17 of the IBC Code will have to be issued with new Certificates of Fitness and P&A Manuals reflecting the changes in categorisation of products, and this should be taken into account when preparations for entry into force are undertaken.

by the drafting group tasked to review the amendments to the IBC Code. MEPC WP 8 contains a listing the products that have been classified or re-classified since the adoption of the amended IBC Code at the 52nd Session of the IMO's Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC 52) and the 79th Session of the Maritime Safety Committee (MSC 79) in 2004 and the products to be included (to date) in the December 2006 issue of the MEPC.2 Circular. Although the amendments made since the 2004 adoption will not be officially entered into the Code until 2009, all the products amended or added since then will be included in MEPC.2 Circular 12 due out 31 December 2006. An electronic version of this document is available on the INTERTANKO web site and has being circulated to members.
1. The port state of the shipper. 2. The flag state of the carrier 3. The port state receiving the cargo.
If a tripartite agreement is completed it is then included in the "Provisional Categorization of Liquid Substances" (also known as the MEPC.2 Circular). An updated circular is published every December. The initiator of the tripartite agreement has three years in which to provide all of the required data to formally classify a substance. It is not acceptable to repeatedly initiate new tripartite agreements for the same product. When there is a need to transport a bulk liquid cargo that has not been classified, the shippers have to go to their administration and request that a tripartite agreement be established between the shipping country, the receiving country, and the ship's flag state. That administration would need to receive the BLG Product Data Form. This is in accordance with Regulation 3(4) of MARPOL Annex II. The tripartite agreement will stand for three years, before which time all outstanding or otherwise necessary data will have to have been forwarded to the IMO (GESAMP) for the formal classification. Otherwise the tripartite agreement will expire. If the cargo is assessed as being regulated by the IBC Code or MARPOL Annex II, the ship's Certificate of Fitness and Procedures

& Arrangements Manual will have to be amended (usually by the classification society, arranged by the owner or manager). The shipping country will determine the provisional carriage requirements per Annex I of MEPC/Circ.265, and seek the concurrence of the flag state and receiving countries using the standard fax format per Annex 7 of MEPC/Circ.265. The IMO and other involved administrations should also be copied. In the absence of a response from the flag state or receiving countries after 14 days, the agreement may be deemed to have been accepted, and the IMO is informed. If there is a question as to whether the cargo has been classified, the International Bulk Chemical Code (IBC Code) should be consulted. If not found there, check the annual "Provisional Categorization of Liquid Substances", the most recent of which is MEPC.2/Circ11. It is expected MEPC.2 Circ 12 will be produced by the IMO on 31 December 2006 (to ensure all products are considered). All of the products considered for inclusion in MEPC.2 Circ 12 are included in the spreadsheet containing Chapters 17 and 18 of the Amended IBC Code (as approved by MEPC 52 and MSC 79). The official MEPC.2 Circ 12 will not be available until mid-January 2007 and will not reflect any tripartite submissions received by the IMO between September (ESPH 12) and December 2006. However, important parts of the MEPC.2 Circ 11 are: The issuance of an Addendum to CoF may be done immediately based on the Tripartite Agreement. The submission of data and evaluation by GESAMP and ESPH may come afterwards.
N
These cargo classifications either have an expiration date (initially after three years), after which data must have been submitted to the IMO for inclusion in the IBC Code; or where there is no expiration date, they are candidates for the next formal amendment of the Code and will be included in the Code at the next publication.
N
This is a permanent list, updated annually. These products will not be listed in the Code.
N
As for the potential Code entries in List 1, these classifications can have an expiry date - but they will not be listed in the Code.
N
Table 1 in the circular defines what each list is and its current status relative to the decision made by the ESPH Work Group. Amendments to the Tripartite Lists (Annexes 1 to 4) are identified by shading the field in which the change has been made. However, members are advised to note that on 15 October 2004, MEPC 52 adopted the revised MARPOL Annex II [by resolution MEPC.118(52) and the amended IBC Code (by resolution MEPC.119(52)], both of which enter into force on 1 January 2007. Consequently, where appropriate, the expiry dates for the products have been adjusted to 31 December 2006.

We received replies from 26 companies representing 467 chemical tankers. The following are the questions asked in the survey, and the corresponding collective replies, presented as a percentage of the 26 companies who replied.

34 November 2006 INTERTANKO: The Revisions to MARPOL Annex II A Practical Guide
Question 3 Would it be a true statement to say that by the nature of the current chemical trade then if the vessel is fixed to carry say a Cat A, or Cat B cargo requiring a pre-wash then there would be, without doubt, appropriate reception facilities available at the same port of discharge for that cargo? (Note: it has being suggested that it would not be necessary to maintain information on GISIS on which specific cargoes could be received by a reception facility because by virtue of that cargo being discharged in that port then there would invariably be a reception facility for that product available). 65% - Yes, in the main it is a true statement 35% - No, it is often a false statement Question 4 Do members encounter problems with a lack of Annex II reception facilities today? Yes - 54% No - 46% ...if so, why are these not reported to the flag state and then to IMO? (The free comment replies can be found on page 3 of this letter). Question 5 Although not directly related to the GISIS issue we would none the less appreciate your comments regarding reception facilities for Vegetable Oils, particularly with regards to the changes that will come into force for pre-wash on some Veg oils post 1/1/2007. On this issue we have two questions: 5A. Do you believe that from your experience of todays availability of reception facilities for Veg Oils that there will be adequate reception facilities available for Veg oils as required under the revisions to MARPOL Annex II.? Yes - 8% No - 92% 5B. would it be beneficial to have within GISIS details of the availability of vegetable oil reception facilities rather than a generic listing of Category Y? Yes - 96% No - 4% Specific free comments to question 4 The following is the list of free comments we received to question 4 of the survey which asked Do members encounter problems with a lack of Annex II reception facilities today? if so, why are these not reported to the flag state and then to IMO?
N
Once we have chemical slops onboard they are often refused to be taken ashore and have to be kept on board until adequate facilities can be found. Reporting to IMO may appear useless.
We do not report the lack of reception facilities as we doubt anything would be done this also applies to Annex I facilities.

Reporting contact details are not readily available We have encountered problems with inadequate availability of reception facilities but this is usually worked around by barging or trucking to distant destinations but this involves exorbitant costs. Knowing the problem exists we look ahead to arrange better reception facilities at the vessels future ports.
Such problems of inadequate reception facilities have been discussed with flag state but the flag state could not assist.
General unsolicited comments received As we mentioned in the forward to our letter, we did receive other unsolicited general comments to the survey which we believe are of interest and are thus reproduced under the appropriate question as follows: Question1 is the way the information is currently presented on Annex II reception facilities in the GISIS database adequate for your needs? i.e. is it sufficient to simply state that say a Pollution Cat B, Annex II reception facility is available? Comments:
N
Most reception barges (other than cargo charterers, receivers facility) are not concerned by categories. There is no information on any facilities in Houston; we are a public marine terminal that routinely receives discharges from vessels with no issues. We can arrange receipt of just about any cargo.
Question 2 would it be much more useful for GISIS to contain information on not only whether there is a Pollution Cat B Annex II reception facility available in that port, but, in addition what specific Annex II cargo reception facilities are available? Comments:
N
Detailed reception conditions must also be described: barge, pipe, which berth, when, availability receiving rate & quantity, cost, etc.
We have checked some ports but found no information available but slops are being disposed of to reception facilities. We have confirmed such information from local agents.
Our sources today (agents, charterers) are reliable, however for a database like this to be of any benefit at all to us, it needs to be complete. In a case where the database only states minimum information we would still have to contact the agent for an detailed answer weather the cargo is acceptable or not (Question2)

Question 5 Although not directly related to the GISIS issue we would none the less appreciate your comments regarding reception facilities for Vegetable Oils, particularly with regards to the changes that will come into force for pre-wash on some Veg oils post 1/1/2007. On this issue we have two questions 5A. Do you believe that from your experience of todays availability of reception facilities for Veg Oils that there will be adequate reception facilities available for Veg oils as required under the revisions to MARPOL Annex II.? 5B. Would it be beneficial to have within GISIS details of the availability of vegetable oil reception facilities rather than a generic listing of Category Y? Comments:
N
The current categorisation today (Cat A & B etc) is commonly known for its disposal but depends on the port, some toxic products cannot always be received due to its toxic smell to the surrounding area. Reception facilities for vegetable oil, animal fat & waxes are very limited. Many soft oils such as dry type vegetable oil and animal fat will also be required depending on its viscosity at the discharge temperature but at this moment, no proper reference to viscosity at every temperature and the reception facility is available. (Q5)
We understand that reception facilities for vegetable and animal oils in Japanese ports are not available but some Korean ports may be available by barge.
Information for shore facilities should be categorised e.g. 1. Annex 1, oil slop, machinery and cargo slops 2. Chemical products (toxic & flammable but not necessary to divide into two categories) 3. Vegetable, animal fat, fish oil 4. Waxes (facilities install heating system would be required)
On the condition that the reception facilities also accept trade names This may also be beneficial to vessels needing to discharge materials. Its important that the Viscosity according to temperature is clearly made available in the GISIS system.

15. Possible scenarios for existing ships under the Amended IBC Code requirements
The following are some of the scenarios that are possible in order to comply with the Revised MARPOL Annex II and the Amended IBC Code:
N
These ships will be able to carry the cargoes left in the revised Chapter 18.
N
Existing IMO Ship Type 3 chemical tanker carrying Cat D cargoes only
Caustic soda is a big mover for this type of ship, and although it remains a ship Type 3, it falls into Pollution Category Y requiring increased stripping limits and underwater discharge requirements.
N
For the purpose of converting an oil product tanker to an IMO Ship Type 3 chemical tanker complying with the IBC Code, the following major differences in regulatory regimes need to be considered: damage stability criteria, cargo tank & venting requirements, environmental control, fire-extinguishing systems, personnel protection, gauging and high level alarms, welded pipe, underwater discharge outlet, stripping limits and officer/crew training.
N
Conversion of a product tanker with a double hull complying with Regulation 19 of MARPOL Annex I or a double hull IMO Ship Type 3, to an IMO Ship Type 2(k) (veg oils)
MARPOL Annex II regulation 4.1.3 offers an exemption for a double hull products tanker (complying with Regulation 19 of MARPOL Annex 1 or an IMO Ship Type 3 that complies with all the requirements of an IMO Ship Type 2 (except cargo tank location) to carry vegetable oils. However, we stress that in view of the revisions to MARPOL Annex II, it is dependent upon the vessel's flag state granting the allowance for compliance with the exemption outlined in MARPOL Annex II Regulation 4.1.3. It is important to understand that paragraph 4.1.3 of the revised MARPPOL Annex II states: "An administration may exempt ships from the carriage requirements under Regulation 11 for ships certified to carry individually identified vegetable oils identified by the relevant footnote in Chapter 17 of the IBC Code, provided the ship complies with..":
N
Conversion of a Ship Type 3 chemical tanker with double hull complying with MARPOL Annex I Regulation 19, to a full IMO Ship Type 2
The double bottom height must meet the B/15 at the centreline, as required by IBC Code paragraph 2.6.1.2. The ship will also need to be verified as complying with the requirements of Type 2 damage stability and various safety requirements, enabling the vessel to carry IMO Ship type 2 chemicals. After 1 January 2007, the stripping performance requirements will apply to all tankers holding a Certificate of Fitness (CoF).

Biofuel is derived from "biomass" - recently living organisms or their metabolic by-products, such as waste streams (agricultural, domestic or municipal).
It is a renewable energy, unlike other natural resources such as petroleum, coal and nuclear fuels. From a global warming perspective, the carbon in biofuels was recently extracted from atmospheric carbon dioxide by growing plants, so burning it does not result in a net increase of carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere.
The term "biofuel" encompasses a diverse range of products such as biogas, biodiesel (methylester of vegetable oils) and bio-ethanol, and also includes ethanol, and methanol. Liquid biofuels are mainly developed as a vehicle fuel.
Biodiesel is produced from a variety of vegetable oils, including but not limited to palm, rape, canola, soy, linseed, coconut, mustard and cotton oils. It can also be manufactured from tallow oil and yellow grease (used cooking oils). The production process is to modify the oils through esterification to give glycerine as a useable by-product. Because of the already-existing infrastructure for processing soft oils such as palm oil, countries in Asia and Latin America

are looking to invest in biodiesel production, resulting in significant increases in the exports of crude palm oil and fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). According to expert forecasts, there will be some 100 new biodiesel and bio-ethanol plants in Europe by the year 2010. Bio-ethanol is a readily available, clean fuel that can be utilised in combustion engines in different ways:
N
Anhydrous (or dehydrated) ethanol is free of water and at least 99% pure. This ethanol can be blended with conventional fuel in proportions up to 85% (E85). Blends up to 20% can be used in modern engines without modification. Traditionally, methyl-tertiary-butyl-ether (MTBE) or ethanol has been added as an oxygenate to gasoline at 6-10% blend for a cleaner burn. As the use of MTBE has been banned by a growing number of states, the U.S. ethanol market has grown from 2.3 to 4 billion gallons in the last three years.
Higher blends require modified engines that run as flexible fuel vehicles (FFVs). There are currently over a million FFVs on the road in the U.S. with an increasing number added each year, and there are a small but growing number of E85 gas stations, primarily in the Midwest.
Finally, bio-ethanol is also used to manufacture ETBE (ethyl-tertiary-butyl-ether), a fuel additive for conventional petrol.
Because ethanol is a great solvent and pulls in water, it is typically not mixed with gasoline prior to being shipped via pipeline. In the U.S., most blends are shipped separately the gasoline is transported via pipeline and the ethanol is sent by truck/rail/barge for blending at the distribution point. The U.S. Congress has recently passed a Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) that requires that a minimum percentage of liquid fuels be from renewable sources. At current gasoline prices there is an economic incentive to blend more than the required levels of ethanol. In markets where states have not yet banned MTBE, distributors are switching to ethanol blends for economic reasons. The carriage of biofuels is an important subject in itself. These generic terms "biofuel" and "biodiesel" involve a number of different products. Because of this, these products cannot be shipped under MARPOL Annex II using these trade names. Most of the discussion recently regarding the classification of biofuels has been predominantly about biodiesel. The majority of biodiesel cargoes are fatty acid methyl esters (FAME), which can have various compositions. There are only three fatty acid methyl esters approved for carriage under the current MARPOL Annex II: 1. Palm oil fatty acid methyl ester (currently in the IBC Code) 2. Coconut oil fatty acid methyl ester (currently in the IBC Code) 3. Rapeseed oil fatty acid methyl ester (currently in list 1 of MEPC.2 Circ) All three of these products are Category D and Chapter 18.

Tripartites are required for any FAME other than those listed above. (See section 6 of this pamphlet for information on tripartites). Soyabean oil FAME is currently being tripartited between the United States, the U.K. and Singapore. Any new entity looking to transport this cargo must also be listed as a party to the tripartite agreement. Regardless of the base oil, FAME products are not "unmodified" oils, and will not be considered applicable under the exemption clause in MARPOL Regulation 4.1.3. (carried in Type 3 space with Type 2 hull requirements). Right now some charterers are lobbying to consider biofuels and biodiesel as Annex I cargoes and not Annex II. There are obviously other stakeholders who wish to assess each individual product separately under Annex II, including applicable biofuels in Chapters 17 and 18 of the IBC Code. Most bio-ethanol cargoes (and some biodiesels) made up from any blend containing 85% or more of a mineral diesel oil or gasoline qualify as Annex I product. The issue of the carriage of biofuels will become more prevalent as more of this product is shipped. ESPH 12 approved a generic entry for fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) products. A footnote (m) on this entry will indicate that the FAME products carried are derived from vegetable oils already in the IBC Code. The individual FAME products that have already been evaluated under the new system are palm oil FAME, rapeseed oil FAME and coconut oil FAME. From 1 January next year FAME derived from any other vegetable oil already evaluated and classified may be carried under the generic entry. This will also mean that blends of FAME products need not be subject to a mixture calculation.
