Across its chapters, the manual delivers a complete operational spine for an LNG carrier call: the pre-arrival notifications and compatibility screening, the tug and pilot requirements for entering the external port, the precise mooring sequence at the unloading berth, the full cargo transfer sequence from pre-discharge meeting through to post-discharge documentation, and the emergency procedures that bind the ship and terminal together in the event of fire, LNG leak, allision or uncontrolled movement. It also carries the supporting checklists, forms and technical drawings that make those procedures workable on the day.

What This Manual Enables

This is a working document for marine operations, not a casual read. It gives a ship’s master and a terminal loading master a shared, precise language for a high-risk interface: the operational limits of the terminal (carrier parameters, maximum hydrometeorological conditions, approach speed, berth heading), the exact tug composition required for entry, stay and departure, the berth equipment and its safe use, and the sequence of events that must be followed during LNG unloading. It also lays out the emergency procedures that apply to fire at the terminal, fire on the LNG tanker, LNG leaks from either side of the ship-shore interface, allision with the berth, and emergency unberthing with the quick release hooks.

Because LNG carrier operations are governed by strict compatibility and safety requirements, having the correct procedures and limits in front of the responsible officers matters. The Polskie LNG Świnoujście Terminal Marine Operations Manual PE-PP-10-1 Rev 2.3 consolidates the terminal’s berth safe operating instruction and safe LNG unloading instruction into a single reference, alongside the checklists and forms that the ship and terminal must complete before, during and after a call.
