Use of these guidelines will simplify the making of agreements for transfe
45、rring petroleum and chemical cargoes and help ensure that the agreements can be clearly interpreted and executed between parties. The recommendations provided here are not intended to interfere in any way with provisions contrary to these guidelines that may exist in any contract or applicable recom
46、mended practices of other regulatory or standards bodies, nor are they intended to interfere with safety and environmental considerations or local conditions. These guidelines are not promulgated as the only acceptable method of custody transfer measurement or inspection practices. Guidelines for th
47、e inspection of marine cargo are subject to ongoing reappraisal and periodic change.Measurement and sampling activities to be performed on board a vessel shall be accomplished in the presence of, or with the express permission of, the vessels master or other appropriate authority. Activities to be p
48、erformed at the loading and discharge shore facilities shall be accomplished in the presence of, or with the express permission of, the appropriate shore supervisory personnel.For reasons of safety, only appropriate and approved equipment should be used. Local jurisdictional regulations regarding lo
49、ading and unloading also shall be followed.vii1Guidelines for Marine Inspection1 ScopeThese guidelines specify the policy and minimum recommended practices for the manual and automatic measurement, sampling, and accounting for bulk quantities of crude oil (including spiked, blended, and reconstituted crude oil), petroleum products, and chemicals that are transported on marine vessels. The activities described in these guidelines include actions by producers, buyers, sellers, terminal operators, vessel owners and their crews, customs authorities, independent inspectors, and
