HM 28. Procedures for crude oil cargo inspections

Overview:

HM 28 provides cargo measurement procedures for crude oil for use primarily by cargo inspectors and specifies procedures directed at minimising cargo contamination and losses.

The document describes detailed procedures which inspectors are required to follow and provides references to analytical test methods and calculations. Reference is made to alternative methods since the procedures recognise that within the industry opinions may
vary regarding the use of test methods, especially where different methods may be specified by parties and contractors.
