ISGOTT

The International Safety Guide for Oil Tankers and Terminals, the joint OCIMF, ICS, and IAPH best-practice manual for the safe handling of crude and petroleum products at the ship-shore interface, now in its sixth edition (2020). It sets the standard for the ship-shore safety checklist, hot-work and enclosed-space procedures, static and electrostatic precautions, and cargo-operation controls. ISGOTT is the reference a tanker’s and a terminal’s procedures are written against.
