The vessel can carry 2 different/compatible cargoes simultaneously. Transportation of two

uncompatible cargoes is possible if one cargo will be carried uncooled.

The Vessel is arranged with four (4) cylindrical (type C) cargo tanks, which are located below
the weather deck, installed in cargo hold spaces (two tanks per cargo hold). Each tank is
supported by two bearings (fixed and sliding bearings). Anti-floating devices are also provided
in order to keep the tanks down on their foundations in case of cargo hold flooding.

The cargo tanks, which are provided with cryogenical insulation of polystyrene slabs of 145mm
thickness glued/attached to the tanks’ surfaces, are connected to cross over systems including
booster pump (SVANEHOJ 260 m3/hr capacity) and reliquefication units.

Each cargo tank is equipped with:

- Dome with manholes and piping connections, including pump domes
- Tank dome stainless steel connection ring with necessary bolts
- One deepwell pump (SVANEHOJ 150 m3/hr capacity)
- Pump sumps
- Internal liquid lines to the bottom
- Two spray lines – one above and one below the horizontal bulkhead
- Upper purge line
- Internal pump seatings
- Earth connection on tank shell
- Quick closing valves at liquid and vapour lines
- Two (2) pilot operated safety relief valves with auxiliary setters

4.0 INSPECTION NARRATIVE

The vessel was found lying anchored, in full ballast condition, at Piraeus anchorage, awaiting
orders for next charter.

The vessel has been under the present Management/Ownership since April 2021.

Following acquisition, the vessel was brought at a shipyard in Yalova, Turkey, where she
underwent drydocking and major maintenance upgrading works, including complete overhaul
of main engine, shaft and diesel generators. Class was transferred from DNV to Polish Register
(PR) on that occasion.

It was reported that during the last 6 months the vessel has been carrying solely butane and
propane liquid cargoes between ports in the Black, Aegean & Adriatic Seas.

4.1 Hull Structure

The hull structure appeared to be sound overall. External side shell plating (above the
waterline) was noted free of noteworthy indentations. Weather decks noted sound overall.
Protective coating on shell plating and on weather decks in good condition.

Plimsol and draft marks visible and well maintained.

As previously stated, no ballast tanks were made available for internal examination on this
occasion.

Per Class records as indicated in the PRS Survey Status, all ballast tanks were internally
inspected by Class on 05 May 2021, and condition of coating (hard type) is stated “Fair”,
with the exception of the forepeak tank in which the condition of coating is stated “Poor”
(Note: the forepeak tank is stated requiring annual examination).

Air vent pipes, ventilators, railings etc. were found in generally good condition.

Bow thruster room structurally sound, dry, clean and tidy. Electric heater in place found in
good condition.

Latest UTM report of the hull structure, dated April 2021, was sighted and briefly perused.
Excessive diminutions of thicknesses beyond Class allowable limits, were not noted.

Minimum Operating Temperature : -48 oC
Maximum Cargo Density : 0.972 kg/dm3
Maximum Loading rate : 600 cbm/h
Maximum Discharging rate : 600 / 260 cmb/h

Cargo tanks were not gas free and could not be internally examined in this instance.

Per Class records as indicated in the PRS Survey Status, the cargo tanks were internally
inspected by Class on 05 May 2021 (close-up examination) – no remarks.

No.1 & 2 cargo holds/void spaces, where the cargo tanks are located (2 tanks per hold), were
internally examined in this instance and found in sound condition overall with protective
coating in fair condition. Support bearings of the cylindrical cargo tanks appeared to be in
good order overall.

Sounding pipe of No.3 starboard Double bottom ballast tank, passing through No.1 cargo
hold/void space, found corroded and leaking – presence of water was evident in No.1 cargo
hold/void space.

As previously stated the vessel can carry 2 different/compatible cargoed simultaneously and
there are two(2) cross-over systems installed for such purpose, each consisting of one vapour
and one liquid line. Both Cross-overs can be connected to the cargo booster pump. In addition
to the cargo cross-overs there is one nitrogen cross-over line, equipped with a flow meter.

Two (2) manifold stations provided on main deck at port & starboard side, amidships, were
found in good condition - with fixed save-alls / drip trays in good apparent condition. Manifold
arrangement as follows:
 Cargo lines : Liquid x 2, Vapour x 2
 Manifold flanges : L1 = 6”/300 lbs/in2, L2 = 6”/300 lbs/in2, V1&2 = 4”/300 lbs/in2
 Manifold location : 11.40m to keel / 1.70 m to deck / 2.30 m to rail

Tank domes including rubber seal rings, cargo lines and associated fittings and valves in
apparent satisfactory condition.

Pressure test records of cargo piping, P/V valves, buffer tanks and deck tank found in order.

Cargo compressors, heaters, piping etc. in the cargo compressor room in good apparent order.

Last overhauling reports of cargo deepwell pumps, compressors and condensers (reportedly
carried out in May 2021 at Yalova by external workshop) were not available/not sighted.

Page 12 of 20
 XXII – 01012
“SUMMER”

Cargo tank temperature gauges and pressure sensors calibration certificates, dated
01/05/2021, sighted and found in order.

Detailed load discharge plans including information for maximum/minimum allowable

pressure rates were available onboard.

Approved tank sounding tables were sighted onboard.

Note:
Two (2) centrifugal type ballast pumps, each of 80 m³/hr capacity are provided in the engine
room dedicated for ballast operations. There are no interconnections between the ballast and
cargo piping.

Vessel’s Maximum permissible discharging Ballast rate: Simultaneously with two (2) pumps:
160 m³/h – filling/discharge time 9 hrs.

The electro-hydraulic hose handling deck crane in good apparent condition.

4.3 Machinery

Main and auxiliary machinery appeared to be in general good working order. Repairs of a
“makeshift” nature were not noted. Very clean and tidy engine room spaces.

Monitoring and control panels of the main engines and auxiliary engines/machinery noted in
good apparent order.

No.1 diesel generator was seen running, without abnormalities. Reverse current trips on the
main switchboard and parallel operation of diesel generators were not tested, as the two
generators were not running in parallel. The Chief Engineer reported that there is water
leakage from one cylinder unit of No.2 diesel generator.

Records of machinery running hours were sighted and noted as follows (no overdue items for
overhaul):

R/hours since last overhaul

o Main Engine 2503
o No.1 Diesel Generator 2712
o No.2 Diesel Generator 2753

Previous overhauling records of auxiliary machinery, including calibration/test report of

machinery safety alarms/devices, were not available onboard.

6.0 GENERAL REMARKS

On the basis of our superficial inspection, the vessel was found in good condition overall.
The following deficiencies/observations were noted during the inspection:

- No.2 diesel generator was not seen in operation - the Chief Engineer reported that
there is water leakage from one cylinder unit.
- The emergency fire pump, located at the bow thruster compartment, found leaking
(water leaking from the packing gland).
- Sounding pipe of No.3 starboard Double bottom ballast tank corroded and leaking –
water was evident in No.1 void space
- From perusal of the analysis report of gearbox lub oil, dd 9/12/2021 (sample taken on
12/11/2021), presence of high content of wear metals (iron, copper & lead) was noted
suggesting abnormal wear of the rotating parts

The installation of a Ballast Water Treatment plant is a considerable expenditure which will
inevitably be incurred for the renewal of the IOPP certificate.
