The
BIMCO Liquid Cargo Database contains a new section, "IBC Code 2021", with cargo entries, following an update as per the amendments to the IBC Code and MARPOL Annex II entering into force on 1 January 2021. The current carriage requirements are available under the section "IBC Code PRE 2021.
The information in the liquid cargo database that currently contains information for some 200 different cargoes aims at providing an easy to use guidance and reference tool, primarily for shore-side staff and for newcomers on board tankers, supplementing the relevant Conventions, Codes and supplementary guidance published by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The database is intended for use solely as a reference tool providing general information relating to the most commonly transported liquid cargoes.
