  • FP05-01_Contractual Guidelines - Quantity and Quality

    FP05-01_Contractual Guidelines – Quantity and Quality

    ISBN : 978-0-9933164-1-8
    SKU : FP05-01
    This publication provides an overview of the custody transfer process of LNG from the supplier to marine vessels. It explains the variables that need to be measured and documented for the main marine engine types. The later sections of this guide describe the proven techniques, equipment and methods available for measuring both LNG quantity and quality, all of which provide sufficient accuracy and auditability to support the custody transfer process. Its aim is to educate and inform and not to be prescriptive any one method over another.
