Buns-N-Cork gaskets for the filling connection.
Sound-powered-phone headsets are required to
establish communications between the following lo-
cations:
Filling connection
Gasoline pumproom
Venting station
Overboard discharge station
Fire-fighting stations must be manned and have
equipment on hand as specified by the ships refuel-
ing bill.

The receiving operation can be accomplished in
port by mobile tankers, barges, or drums. Regardless
of the source of receiving, the operating steps are
basically the same. Only the time required will be
different.
Connect the portable 2 1/2-inch hose connector to
the filling connection. Make sure the cofferdam is
charged with N? to 50% inertness at 3 psi. Make sure
the COZ fire extinguishing system is on, operating
properly, and ready for immediate operation.
Look in the sight glass in the MOGAS tank fill
line to check for the presence of seawater. If no
seawater is present, open the tank top valve and intro-
duce seawater into the tank with the seawater com-
pensating pump until liquid is observed in the sight
glass.
After all preparations are made, align the piping
systems as follows:
Seawater compensation system alignment
1. Make sure the following valves are closed:
a. Steam-out hose connection valve
b. Seawater compensating pump valve
2. Make sure the following valves are locked open:
a. Seawater elevated loop overboard discharge
valve
b. Seawater equalizing tank valve
c. Seawater supply valve to the MOGAS tank
The seawater system is aligned in the following
manner to allow the seawater in the MOGAS tank to
be pushed out via the overboard discharge as MOGAS
is pumped into the tank:
Gasoline distribution system alignment
1. Make sure the following valves are closed:
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
f.
Portable Inertness Analyzer (PIA) test con-
nection valve
Filter drain to MOGAS draw-off tank
Venturi outlet valve
Tanktop valve
Vehicle fueling station isolation valve
Flow meter bypass valve
2. Make sure the following valves are open:
a.
b.
c.
d.
Vehicle fueling/filling station isolation
valve
Flow meter inlet valve
Flow meter outlet valve
Filling line isolation valve
Vent the distribution system as follows:
1. Align the piping to vent from the tank through
the filter.
2. Open the filling valve SLOWLY at the filling
station.
