TERMINAL REQUIREMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS

Displacement and Berth Restrictions

The berth is designed and capable to accommodate LNG Carriers (LNGC) up to a maximum arrival

displacement of 94,671 tonnes with a capacity range of 75,000 m3 up to 145,000 m3, with a case-by-

case study for LNGC‟s above 145,000 m3 up to a maximum capacity of 155,000m3. Loading is carried

out via the mid-ship manifold and vessels are berthed starboard side alongside.

Draft Restrictions

MAX DRAFT

Ballast (Arrival) = full propeller Immersion not more than 11.60 M

Laden (Departure) = 11.60m

Dredged depth alongside = 14.5 m, with a shallow patch of 13.60 m situated approximately 600m north

of the Jetty, on the departure track.

Under keel Clearance:

All vessel at all times must main the following taking into consideration trim during loading operations.

Alongside Terminal - 5% of Maximum Summer Draft or 0.3m whichever is greater

Restricted Water - Minimum 10% Static Draft

Dedicated Anchorage and Use of Anchors

A tanker anchorage (C) is located approximately 3 miles North of the LNG berth in the area contained

within the following limits:

Latitude4° 45‟ North & 4° 46‟ North

Longitude 114° 26‟ East & 114° 28‟ East

Refer to British Admiralty chart 2109. Vessels should not anchor at any other locations due to the

presence of many submarine cables and pipelines throughout the oil field and adjoining areas.


7

Immobilisation and Availability of Main Engines

Immobilisation of engines is not permitted at any time during the LNGC stay at Brunei LNG terminal.

Whilst moored alongside, LNGC‟s are required to maintain engines ready for maneuvering (engines

must be available at short notice).

Two tugs and one General Purpose (Pilot) boat is always available on call whenever there is a LNGC

alongside.

Exclusion Zone

An exclusion zone of 130 metres is to be maintained at all times when a LNGC is alongside the berth.

Entry of small boats / tugs / work-boats into the exclusion zone is prohibited. Storing operations can be

carried out when a LNGC is alongside provided the operation is done prior to commencement of cool-

down or after completion of loading.

Allowing an ignition source into the berth ignition exclusion zone is in contradiction of accepted LNG

terminal practice and SIGTTO recommendations.

Berthing Limits and Suspension of Operations

Berthing and unberthing is carried out at any time of the day.

Berthing operations are, as a rule, suspended when wind speeds exceed 20 knots and sea / swell state is

more than 2 metres by day and when wind speeds exceed 15 knots and sea / swell state is more than

1.5 metres by night. Berthing and unmooring operations shall be suspended during squalls.

During cargo loading operations should the sustained wind speed reach 20 knots and increasing the Pilot

and Lumut Control are to be notified. At a sustained wind speed of 35 knots, reduce loading to two

pumps and notify the tugs to standby. If the sustained wind speed should reach 40 knots, then cargo

operations will be suspended and the arms disconnected.

Un-berthing of vessel in adverse weather- while all operations will be suspended at sustained wind

speeds of 40 Knots and wait for winds to reduce to 20 knots for un-berthing. The standard berthing

parameters apply for un-berthing. However in sustained high wind conditions Master of vessel to

discuss with Pilot onboard and Terminal Marine Advisor on additional mooring and possibility of un-

berthing based on ship stability.


8

Safety Requirements

Tow-off wires (fire wires) must be prepared, hung off on the port bow and port quarter and maintained

3m above the water with the eye facing down, throughout the LNGC‟s stay alongside.

The port side gangway shall be maintained 3 meters above the water ready for emergency escape

throughout the LNGC‟s stay alongside.

Personnel transferring to / from the ship via Brunei LNG terminal must adhere to the following safety

requirements:

• Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE) consisting of a long sleeve coverall, safety footwear, a

safety helmet, safety footwear, a safety helmet, safety glasses and hearing protection (inside

the rail car) must be worn.

• No smoking is permitted whilst at the terminal and during personnel transfer from the terminal

to the police guardhouse exit.

• Lighters are not allowed to be brought in personally.

• Mobile phones are strictly prohibited. Agents are to store their mobile phones inside a

designated box.

• Use of other non-intrinsically safe electric / battery equipment that is carried must be switched

off and declared before it is carried thru the terminal.

• Handrails must be used where provided when using staircases, especially when joining or

leaving the ship from the jetty tower.

• Personnel joining or leaving the ship via the Jetty can carry only one piece of hand luggage.

• All safety signs, notices and instructions must be observed and complied with.


9

General Arrangement of Mid-ship Loading Jetty

LNGC‟s are normally berthed starboard side alongside. The normal arrangement for mooring would be

2-2-2 fore and aft. Depending on the size of the LNGC, bigger LNGC‟s of 135,000 cu.m. to 155,000 cu.m.

are moored 3-3-2 fore and aft. Wires with rope tails are recommended. Two tugs are normally used to

assist the vessel in berthing and unberthing, with the third tug used for bigger L N G C ’s.

The jetty is equipped with four loading arms. Arm 2 and 3 are interchangeable from liquid to vapour and

vice versa. Four breasting dolphins supported by low friction panelled pneumatic fenders are linked by

catwalks to the loading platform and allow the LNGC to lie alongside 5 metres from the edge of the

loading platform deck with fenders uncompressed. All the breasting dolphins are equipped with double

hooks for spring moorings.

Four mooring dolphins linked by piled catwalks are equipped with triple hooks to take the forward and

aft breast and head/stern lines. Each dolphin has its own capstan for heaving the mooring lines from the

GP boats.

A Gangway is provided for personnel transfer whilst the LNGC is alongside the berth. Other equipment

installed at the Jetty are a berthing aid, environmental monitoring system, arm position monitoring

system and a mooring load-monitoring system.

LNGC‟s shall be provided with a midship crane suitable for lifting operations. Minimum SWL of 5 MT.


10

Pilotage Information

The Marine Department (SMR/2) of BSP supplies the Pilotage services for the Brunei LNG terminal. The

pilot boarding position is 2 miles North of the terminal.

Brunei LNG would review suitability of all prospective vessels before an LNGC may be accepted to the

side-loading berth at Lumut. An Optimoor study is also required for a mooring compatibility check.

Refer British Admiralty chart 2109. The Pilot boards the incoming LNG Carriers (LNGC) approximately

two miles north of the Jetty (4° 44.5‟N -114°26.5‟E- LNG Pilot Boarding Station). Masters are requested

to provide a good lee for the Pilot launch to facilitate boarding and lifting of baggage.

The pilot ladder and accommodation ladder if used must be properly rigged in accordance with SOLAS

1974 and amendments, and IMO resolution A1045 (27) and SOLAS Chapter V/23). The bottom of the

pilot ladder should be 1.5m above the water level with adequate lighting provided at night.

A responsible officer must be in attendance at the top of the ladder where a life buoy, man-overboard

light and a clean heaving line should be sited. The pilot should be met upon boarding and escorted to

the bridge. A bag containing UHF radios for ship / shore communications during loading is passed to the

LNGC when the berthing master boards, approximate weight 10 KGs.

The Pilot remains on board whilst alongside the Jetty, HALAL food should be available, if need be - for

boarding personnel.

Numerous drilling rigs / platforms are in the approach area and must be given a wide berth. There are

many oil field production structures off the coasts of Sarawak, Brunei and Sabah coupled with a large

amount of exploration and drilling activities. These field structures, both surface and subsurface, pose a

hazard to navigation, and masters are advised that they should give all these activities and fields a wide

berth by navigating with care outside the cautionary areas.

A 500m-safety zone exists around all offshore installations and LNG Carriers are prohibited from

entering these zones unless authorized. (Refer to the Mariner’s Handbook NP100 Chapter 1 section 1)

The Government Marine Department of Brunei Darussalam has declared Safety Zones up to 1.6 miles

from charted offshore platforms. Annual summary of Notice to Mariners No 1788(P)/ 88 refers.

Pre-Berthing Inspection

The Pilot will make a quick inspection around the deck and do a pre mooring briefing with the Chief

Officer and the crew (spot hire LNGC) before going up to the bridge. The LNGC is to be stopped 2.5

nautical miles north of the Jetty, for this purpose.


11

Maximum Loading Rate

Brunei LNG side loading jetty: 5400m3 per hour

The LNG Carriers is expected to load as fast as Brunei LNG Terminal can supply or they can safely

receive. The question of how fast a LNG Carriers may load is the responsibility of the Master having due

regard to the ship’s operating criteria, owner’s instructions, Charter Party and experience of crew.

Communications with the Terminal during loading is controlled by the fibre optic connection with the

ship. During loading, hourly ship / shore figure comparison checks are required. The LNG Carriers is

required to have the VHF in the Cargo Control Room on CH73 as the secondary means of

communication.

Documentation

All documentation will be carried out on board prior departure. The Pilot will assist in completing all

required documentation as required from shore.

De-ballasting and Monitoring of Ballast

All segregated ballast tanks are required to be confirmed free from contamination prior to arrival and

visually inspected by the Berthing Master prior to De-ballasting, through sighting ports on deck where

fitted.

De-ballasting is not to commence without prior permission from the Pilot and the rate of de-ballasting

shall be such that a safe condition is maintained at all times to meet the requirements of “Maintenance

of Draft”, (see below).

LNGC‟s are required to include regular overboard checks by all available means as part of routine

loading safety checks.

If any contamination of tank ballast or discharged ballast water is noted or suspected during loading, all

operations are to be stopped and the Pilot informed immediately.

Maintenance of Draft

At all times during loading, LNGC‟s are required to maintain their drafts within a suitable range such

that should the LNGC be required to vacate the berth in an emergency, the ship can be safely

manoeuvred to the anchorage.


12

Information Required Prior To Arrival

Radio Advice

Confirm ETA at least 72, 48, 24 to Brunei LNG OPS/8 and Marine Helpdesk SMR/2x. Additionally, a 12

hours notice by radio to Lumut Control. Declaration of Health, Master‟ s name, number of crew,

destination, advice of CLC certificate at initial ETA message.

LNGC‟s making their first call at Lumut should receive a comprehensive message from the appointed

Weather

The Northwest coast of Borneo is within the influence of the Monsoon of the South China Sea. The North-

East Monsoon period extends from mid-November to March and the South-West Monsoon period from

June to September. Light and variable winds, calm seas and generally thundery weather mark the

transition periods or the Inter monsoon seasons of April-May and October- November. Heavy rainfall with

associated poor visibility is most common during the months of August through to January.

North East Monsoon

The wind direction is generally North-North-East and the mean wind speed is about 10 knots. However,

during a surge period, sustained wind speeds of 20 knots are frequently experienced. Gusts of up to 30

knots can occur. The period is known for its steady wind direction, which on most occasions prevails

throughout the full day. The land breeze effect is noticeable in the early morning hours (0500 - 0900)

however, which tends to reduce the effect of the Northeasterly and provides a quieter window during

which it is preferable to berth the LNGC.

The average significant wave height is about 0.6 metres. During prolonged strong Northeasterly winds a

significant wave height in excess of 2 metres can occur. Significant wave heights in excess of 1.8 metres

occur for about 2% of the time.

The typical wave frequency at Lumut is 7 seconds, which is exceeded only on very rare occasions.

South West Monsoon

The wind direction is predominantly from the Southwest with a mean wind speed of about 7 knots.

Sustained wind speeds of 20 knots are not uncommon and account for about 15% of the period. Usually

the wind is strongest during the afternoon/early evening hours. Thereafter it moderates significantly and

during the early morning hours the best conditions are experienced to handle LNG Carriers.

The average significant wave height is 0.5 metres. The maximum significant wave height is about 1.5

metres.

The typhoons of the West Pacific can affect the weather system by drawing air from the region and causing

increased south-westerly wind speeds of several days duration with an associated increase in wave height


16

and swell, which may exceed 2m. This is particularly noticeable should the typhoon cross the Philippines

from the Pacific and continue to deepen as it slowly traverses the South China Sea area.

Squalls

The area is known for its severe squalls and heavy thunderstorms. Squalls are most frequent during the

South-West Monsoon period and can affect LNGC operations. Heavy thunderstorms are most frequent

during the inter monsoon periods. Squalls are in general associated with mean wind speeds of 30 knots

and gusts in excess of 60 knots and heavy rainfall. The duration of a squall is normally very short - generally

about 20 minutes, but may be longer. Where the duration of a squall is prolonged, rapid increase in wave

height may occur which will then take some time to decrease.

Transitions Periods

The transition period of April-May generally enjoys very calm seas, light and variable winds hardly

exceeding 10 knots and increasing thunderstorm activity. Visibility may be restricted at the Lumut berth

by smoke from jungle fires during the early part of the transition period if prolonged dry spells extend

from the late North-East Monsoon. This has not affected the berthing of LNG Carriers to date but during

the dry period from October 1997 to May 1998 when the El Nino effect was strong, smoke from forest

fires reduced visibility to below 3 cables on some occasions.

The second transition period is normally around September / October. This period sees an increasing shift

of wind combined with an increase in rainfall until the North-East Monsoon is re-established.

Typhoons and Tropical Storms

Typhoons are the same name given to the tropical cyclone of the western Pacific and the South China Sea.

A tropical storm is of the same basic nature as a typhoon but is less intense. Tropical cyclones are rare in

latitudes lower than 10 degrees, but the southern South China Sea experiences a “backlash” from these

storms as they pass over the Philippines. This “backlash” is particularly marked in the months of October,

November and December when pressures are high over the Asian mainland.


17

Current

The current of the Brunei coast follows more or less the coastline and generally does not exceed 1 knot.

In the Lumut berth the current is predominantly wind driven and will generally follow the wind direction

setting either to the Northeast in the South-West Monsoon or to the Southwest in the Northeast

monsoon. When there has been no sustained wind direction for several days, the current is generally light

and variable, possibly influenced by the tide and may be found to set south on occasions.

Fog

There are occasions of early morning Radiation fog over the coast. However, the duration is relatively

short and by mid-morning the visibility has cleared. It is not likely to affect operations at the Lumut berth.


18

Other Information

Visa requirements for crews on-signing and off-signing at Lumut Port: -

Such information must be sought from respective shipping agents as visa requirements and the means by

which they may be obtained differ widely according to the nationality of personnel seeking entry.

minutes.

In cases of emergency involving serious injury or illness, the Berthing Master can initiate Brunei Shell

Petroleum Company’s „Medevac Procedure‟. Representation of the patient remains with the Agent,

who should be informed immediately to contact customs and immigration authorities etc. He will also

be able to advice what documents should accompany the patient ashore.

Fresh Water Facilities

Emergency provision of fresh water may be arranged through the Agent. This emergency service is

subject to the availability of a suitable vessel.

Tugs

Three Rotor Tugs (bollard pull 84 T) are always standing by at Brunei LNG Terminal to assist the LNG

Carriers during berthing and unberthing, and are available all the time in case of an emergency. Two

tugs are normally used for berthing of B class vessels and for all un-berthing operations, a third tugs is

operation is carried out for larger LNG vessels (above 135,000 M3) details are in the marine operations

procedures provided by pilot during master pilot exchange.

One mooring (Pilot boat) launch will remain on station throughout the LNGC’s loading operation and

maintains a listening watch on VHF Ch 73 and 15/16.
