An Introduction to Bunkering Operations is an invaluable introduction to bunkering Operations, which was launched during Maritime Week Americas in 2010.
This book is the third in a series of informative books by Nigel, and follows An Introduction to Bunkering (2008) and An Introduction to Fuel Analysis (2009), both of which have now become staple reading material for newcomers and more established players alike.
An Introduction to Bunkering Operations is crammed with photographs, charts and diagrams intended to help the reader visualise important aspects of bunker operations, from flanges, hoses and samplers, to barges, pipelines, road tankers and storage tanks.
It covers everything that needs to be understood and remembered, from plugging scuppers to fastening bolts on a bunker flange, and covers storage, measuring, delivery, sampling and handling of bunker fuels and debunkering.
