This to certify that, Vessel used method for Cleaning COT’s and Cargo Lines as Follows: 1. During Discharging Light Crude Oil, Vessel was Washed all COTs with COW, well drained and stripped all COT, LINES, PUMPS. 2. Washing with Ambient Sea Water 2hrs Each Tank + Line 3. Washing with Hot Sea Water 70 Deg. 5hrs Each Tank + Line 4. Purging with IG + GAS Free 5. De-Mucking All COTs Including SLOPs 6. Inerting All COTs 7. Washing with MGO All COTs + Lines 2hrs Each 8. Washing with FW All COTs 2hrs Each Tank 9. Purging + GAS Free 10. Moping and Drying All COTs + Lines 11. Inerting Foor above please note followings 1) At each step we were doing visual inspection and due partial remaing of dirt, we did next step. 2) Our vessel had full tank cleaning and demucking at dry dock and after dry dock only two cargos was loaded. Ref. to above SOF, our worries raised about the cleaning of the MV which had at least 4 times loading of crude and just 4 times washing by hot sea water. I hope that I could explain the reason of worries at our end. Regarding sample and the test please arrange as you have mentioned but, considering the temp. in discharge area and the type of cargo, please ask them to keep the sample in ice box till their laboratory in order to keep the cargo density intact. Furthermore if you are 100% sure about the cleaning of the MV then you should have the worries about our earlier statement.
