This guide was first published in 1975 and was revised in 1988 and again in 1997. The guide, reflecting best advice from industry, has been used as the basis for national regulations on Ship-to-Ship(STS) petroleum transfer operations. STS transfer operations are routine in many parts of the world and considerable experience has been built up. This 4th edition of the guide has been substantially updated to take account of the latest good operating practice and to include reference to a new International Standard - "Ships nad Marine Technology - Floating Pneumatic Rubber Fenders" (ISO 17357). Similarl, recommendations regarding foam fenders have also been expanded. The role of the human element in ensuring safety is also given greater prominence and in this context attention is drawn to the potential dangers associaated with fatigue. The results of a study on STS mooring load analysis have been taken into account in the enhancement of guidance on mooring operations and mooring equipment. The risks inherent in transferring personnel by basket using ship's equipment atr recognised, and an enhanced section devoted to this topic has been included.
