Xiamen Port issues guidelines for safe methanol bunkering operations
Xiamen Port has issued Fujian province’s first safety guidelines for vessel methanol bunkering, establishing a framework for safe methanol refueling operations in Xiamen waters.
The guidelines cover the full bunkering process, including requirements for operator qualifications, bunker vessel equipment, hose inspections, crew certification and protective equipment. They also require pre-operation risk assessments and emergency response plans, continuous monitoring during bunkering, weather-related operating limits, and post-operation pipeline purging and inerting.
