1、Designation:F253307(Reapproved 2013)Standard Guide forIn-Situ Burning of Oil in Ships or Other Vessels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2533;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revisio
2、n.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide covers the use of in-situ burning directly inships and other vessels.This guide is not applicable to in-situburning of oil o
3、n sea or land.1.2 This guide is applicable to situations in which the vesseland cargo are not salvageable.After the burn,the vessel willnever be salvageable.It is intended that the in-situ burning ofoil spills in ships be a last resort option.1.3 The purpose of this guide is to provide information t
4、hatwill enable spill responders to decide if burning will be used toremove oil from stranded ships or other vessels.1.4 This is a general guide only.It is assumed that condi-tions at the spill site have been assessed and that theseconditions are suitable for the burning of oil.It is also assumedthat
5、 permissions to burn the oil have been obtained.Variationsin the behavior of different oil types are not dealt with and maychange some of the parameters noted in this guide.1.5 This guide is one of several related to in-situ burning.1.6 There are many safety concerns associated with in-situburning o
6、f oil in ships.These include the unsafe nature of thewrecked vessel and the use of explosives.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practi

16、This guide is primarily intended to aid decision-makersand spill-responders in contingency planning,spill response,and training.4.2 This guide is general and site conditions can change thesituation considerably.5.Background5.1 Overview of Oil BurningIn-situ burning is one ofseveral oil spill countermeasures available.The thickness ofthe oil is an important factor in the use of in-situ burning(seeGuide F1788).The burning of oil in ships is implemented toremove oil from stranded or derelict ships
