    Uploaded by

    ELYES CHOUCHENE
    This document provides information and procedures for calculating cargo quantities using ASTM tables. It discusses calculating cargo volumes and weights based on ullage, trim, and density/API gravity measurements using ASTM tables 5-6, 23-24, and 53-54. The document gives step-by-step examples of calculating cargo quantities from observed data using corrections and volume/weight factors from the ASTM tables for both API and density-based methods.

    Note:

    Density or API is provided by the terminal or


    surveyor in the load ports and what is used will be
    dependent on the region / port of loading.

    For example in USA / Canada, Persian Gulf, API


    usage is prevalent, while entire of Europe and Asia
    uses Density at 150C.

    PROCEDURE OF CALCULATIONS

    Working with API Gravity at 60oF :

    1) Observed Ullage - apply trim and list corrections


    - get Corrected Ullage
    2) Observed Interface - apply corrections - get
    Corrected Interface
    3) From Corrected Ullage, find Total Observed
    Volume (in metric cube)
    4) From Corrected Interface, find Volume of Water
    (in metric cube)
    5) TOV - Water = Gross Observed Volume of
    Cargo, GOV (in metric cube)

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 11
    6) Use API Gravity at 600F and Observed
    Temperature (0F) and find Volume Correction
    Factor (VCF) from Table 6A

    7) Gross Standard Volume (GSV) = Gross


    Observed Cargo Volume x VCF

    8) Convert GSV in metric cube to US Barrels


    ( 1 m3 = 6.28981 barrels )

    8) Find Weight Correction Factor (WCF) from Table


    13

    9) Weight in Air (Metric Tons) = GSV x WCF

    10 Stbd. API 13.5, Temp 1200 F

    1)

    Correction = +7.1 cm

    No 5 COT (P) Ullage 2.0 m , Trim 2m by stern, List
    10 Stbd. API 13.5, Temp 1200 F

    2)

    Correction = +10.6 cm

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 14
    Working Examples
    Observed ullage = 2.00 m
    Correction for trim = 0.07 m
    Correction for list = 0.11 m
    Corrected ullage = 2.18 m

    3)

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 15
    Working Examples
    From the ullage table, volume for 2.18 m ullage =
    10098.3 m3

    Find Volume Correction Factor (VCF) from ASTM


    Table 6A

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 16
    From ASTM Table 6A, VCF = 0.9783

    Gross Standard Volume (GSV) = Observed Cargo


    Volume x VCF

    GSV = 10098.3 x 0.9783


    = 9879.2 m3

    Convert GSV in metric cube to US Barrels


    ( 1 m3 = 6.28981 barrels )

    GSV in barrels = 9879.2 x 6.28981


    = 62138 bbls

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 17
    Find Weight Correction Factor (WCF) from ASTM Table 13

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 18
    From ASTM Table 13, WCF = 0.15483

    Weight in Air (Metric Tons) = GSV (in barrels) x WCF


    = 62138 x 0.15483
    = 9620.8 mt

    PROCEDURE OF CALCULATIONS

    Working with Density at 15oC in air:

    1)Observed Ullage - apply corrections - get


    Corrected Ullage
    2)Observed Interface - apply corrections - get
    Corrected Interface
    3)From Corrected Ullage, find Total Observed
    Volume TOV (in cubic metres)

    6) Use Density at 15oC and Observed Temperature
    (oC) and find Volume Correction Factor (VCF) from
    Table 54A
    7) Gross Standard Volume (GSV) = GOV x VCF (in
    cubic metres)

    8) Convert GSV in metric cube to US Barrels

    13 ( need to convert density to API or use ASTM
    table 3)

    API = 141.5 – 131.5


    SG

    Where SG is the Specific Gravity of cargo i.e


    density of cargo / density water

    Volume x VCF

    GSV = 10098.3 x 0.987


    = 9967.0 m3

    15oC to barrels at 60 deg Fahrenheit

    GSV in barrels = 9967 x 6.292

    CARGO CALCULATIONS 28
    Convert density to API..or can use ASTM Table 3

    API = 141.5 – 131.5


    SG
    = 141.5 – 131.5
