Regional Requirements:

Notes: For voyages within the EU inland waterways and for short sea voyages to North Sea and UK ports, nitrogenblanket is not required.

Notes: If Nitrogen blanket is in place and Carrier chooses to transship, carrier must reapply nitrogen blanket on the

cargo, both on the discharging and receiving ship, at their time, risk, and expense.

Tank Acceptance Requirements:

All shore and ship cargo lines and tanks are to be presented clean (residual free), dry, odor free,and rust free, with good gaskets and pressure tested heating coils.

Stainless Steel or Coated Tanks: Stainless preferred. Coated tanks to be in very good conditionwith minimal blistering or breakdown. All blisters to bescraped to hard coating. All defects to be noted by thesurveyor.

Tank Acceptance Requirements cont:

Wash Specifications: An ASTM E2664-09 standard methanol wallwash

should be taken from at least four spots (at least 6

width and 6 height) on each bulkhead, and also four

spots on the tank top. The following composite tests

should be run.

Appearance, Chlorides, Hydrocarbons, Color,

Acidity, Iron

Results Appearance Clear bright and particle free

Chlorides 0.549 ug/g(ppm) max

Hydrocarbons Pass (ASTM D-1722)

Color 10 max Pt-Co (ASTM D-1209)

Cargo Sampling, Testing and Sample Retain Requirements.

Unless alternative written instructions have been provided by Shell locally, the requirementsdescribed here should be met. For each sample which will be tested, a duplicate sample shouldbe taken, retained and sealed in surveyor custody, in a temperature controlled environment. Allsamples should be stored in clear glass bottles with airtight closures.

Samples at loading which must be on a 180 day minimum retain:

Shore tank

Shore Manifold (end of shore line)

Ship Manifold

First foot in each ship tank.

Ship tank final.

Ships tanks will be loaded to approximately 1foot and stopped. The product will then be sampledand tested for color, appearance, Specific Gravity and Water. If tanks fail initial test they will bere-sampled and retested. If samples fail second test, Surveyor to contact Shell for further instructions.

Sample Testing and Product release/ Acceptance Requirements.

Loading:Loading:Loading:Loading: Shore tank approved by location based on local process. Manifold samples tested in thefield for appearance only. Product release based on one (1) foot samples from each tank loaded.

Discharge:Discharge:Discharge:Discharge: Product acceptance based on key tests on arrival samples from each tank discharging.Manifold and pump stack samples tested in field for appearance only.

Maintenance of heating coils is to be verified in the ships log. If product is to be heated, heatingcoils are to be confirmed leak free. If product is not heated, heating coils are to be drained, driedand blanked off.

Quality of the shore line to be checked prior to the ship berthing. If necessary the line to be flusheduntil an on spec. sample is obtained at the shore manifold.

Shore hose, if not a dedicated hose must be cleaned. Hose to be clean and dry prior to use.Surveyor to carry out a visual inspection. Prior to opening the ships manifold, the shore hose to bepressed up and sampled for a visual check of color and particulates.

Ship lines should be flushed through the drain cocks, include also where there are dead ends. Aclear sample should be drawn from these points.
