If the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from a tanker are to be regulated in a port or terminal (which will depend on port State or terminal regulations), the tanker must have a vapour emission collection system approved by the flag State Administration, and must use it during the loading of relevant cargoes.
What are the requirements of the revised MARPOL Annex VI regarding the installation of vapour collection systems in tankers?
