Dear customer,
Please note that the EI publishing department has moved to a new print supplier for 2021. The option to purchase Hard Copies of our publications has been suspended until the New Year, when we will be making select areas of the catalogue available again. Until then, we will continue to offer PDF versions of our books. Please email pubs@energyinst.org if you have any queries.
Kind regards,

Please note that an addendum was issued in May 2018 for this publication, it is available for download and present in both the sample pages and the full PDF.
The latest version of Annex B can be downloaded here: Annex B - Crude oil data.
This publication provides guidelines for the carriage, heating and crude oil washing (COW) of many crude oils that may be transported by sea.
As well as enhancing the current regulations regarding reducing marine pollution, the publication provides guidance on the grades of crude oil that may give rise to an increase in volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions if used excessively for COW. The publication also highlights a number of crude oils that are known to be potentially harmful due to concentration of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and/or benzene.
