TANKER SAFETY GUIDE (LIQUIFIED GAS) REVISION
Circular Ref: O(22)51
Issue Date: 27 Sep 2022
The ICS is starting work on revising the Tanker Safety Guide (Liquefied Gas), which was last published in 2018 and invites nominees to the working group to review the current edition and advise the ICS secretariat on gas tanker-specific changes that need to be made.
The aims are to ensure the new edition:
• Aligns with International Safety Guide for Oil Tankers and Terminals, Sixth Edition (ISGOTT6)
• Aligns with Tanker Safety Guide: Chemicals, Fifth Edition
• Reflects current industry best practice.
A technical writer will join the project to support the writing. Nominees will be expected to attend a small number of meetings either at the ICS office in London or via teams from November 2022 to June 2023.
The working group will be chaired by Gregor Stevens, ICS Senior Manager Nautical.
Please send nominations to ICS Head of Publications at emily.yates@ics-shipping.org by 17th October 2022.
