Refrigerated hydrocarbon and non-petroleum based liquefied gaseous fuels - Calibration of membrane tanks and independent prismatic tanks in ships - Manual and internal electro-optical distance-ranging methods (ISO 8311:2013)
EN-ISO 8311 specifies a method for the internal measurement of membrane tanks used in ships for the transport of refrigerated light hydrocarbon fluids. In addition to the actual process of measurement, it sets out the calculation procedures for compiling the tank capacity table and correction tables to be used for the computation of cargo quantities. This International Standard, with some modification, may also be applicable to the calibration of independent prismatic tanks. For the manual measurement of membrane tanks, the procedures of this International Standard utilize the scaffolding used for the installation of the membranes to support the measuring equipment but, for the internal electro-optical distance-ranging method, other safe means of access to the required measuring positions have to be used.

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Innenmessung von Membrantanks in Schiffen, die für den Transport von durch Abkühlung verflüssigten leichten Kohlenwasserstoffen vorgesehen sind, fest. Außer dem Messvorgang selbst werden die Verfahren beschrieben, mit deren Hilfe sich Tabellen für die Tankkapazität und Korrekturtabellen zur Berechnung der mengenmäßigen Schiffsladung aufstellen lassen. Diese Internationale Norm kann mit einigen Modifikationen auch für die Kalibrierung unabhängiger Tanks in prismatischer Form angewendet werden.
Für die in dieser Internationalen Norm beschriebenen Verfahrensabläufe wird bei der manuellen Messung von Membrantanks zum Abstützen der Messgeräte das Gerüst verwendet, mit dem die Membran aufgestellt wurde; für das interne elektrooptische Distanzmessverfahren (EDM) sollten jedoch andere Hilfsmittel für den Zugriff auf die benötigten Messpositionen angewendet werden.

Introduction
Large quantities of light hydrocarbons consisting of compounds having one to four carbon atoms are
stored and transported by sea as refrigerated liquids at pressures close to atmospheric. These liquids
can be divided into two main groups, liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
Bulk transportation of these liquids requires special technology in ship design and construction to
enable ship-borne transportation to be safe and economical.
Quantification of these cargoes in ships’ tanks for custody transfer purposes has to be of a high order of
accuracy. This International Standard (together with others in the group) specifies methods of internal
measurement of ships’ tanks, from which tank capacity tables can be derived.
This International Standard covers calibration techniques applicable to membrane type tanks, i.e. self-
supporting independent tanks in which the containment system comprises a relatively thin membrane
of either stainless steel or high-nickel steel alloy. This International Standard, with some modification,
can also be applicable to the calibration of independent prismatic tanks.
Annex A gives uncertainty associated with the measurement of membrane tanks.
Annex B gives an example of a tank capacity table relating partial filling volume as a function of liquid
level and Annexes C and D give examples of trim correction and list correction tables, respectively.

4 Precautions
4.1 General
This clause outlines the precautions to be taken during measurement. Utmost care and attention shall
be exercised in taking measurements, and any unusual occurrence during the measuring work, which
might affect the results, shall be recorded.
4.2 Ship’s condition during calibration
The calibration methods described in this International Standard may be applied to ships whether afloat
or in a dry dock. However, its use for ships in a dry dock is preferred, because trim or list, if any, will
remain the same throughout the calibration procedure. Adjustments, manually or automatically shall be
made to any measurement by optical level and EODR if the ship’s attitude has changed.
4.3 Tank distortion
If unusual distortion is found in the tank, additional measurement shall be taken by the calibrator as
considered necessary and sufficient. Notes by the calibrator detailing the extra measurements and the
reasons for them shall be included in the calibration report.
The calibrator shall provide detailed sketches of any abnormality of the tank or its fittings where such
sketches can materially assist the interpretation of the recorded data.

ISO 8311:2013(E)
4.4 Comparison with drawings
If drawings for the tank are available, all measurements taken shall be compared with the corresponding
dimensions shown on the drawings. Any measurement showing a significant discrepancy in this
comparison shall be rechecked; however, the tank capacity table shall be based on the actual
measurements.
4.5 Measurements by measuring tape
When measurements are made with a measuring tape:
a) the tension specified in the tape calibration certificate shall be applied;
b) the measuring tape shall be supported so as to prevent it from sagging. If tape sag is unavoidable,
the calibrator shall note this and a catenary correction shall be applied during calculation;
c) take multiple measurements. If the first three consecutive measurements agree within the
tolerances specified in d) below, take their mean as the measurement and their standard deviation
as the standard uncertainty. If they do not agree within the tolerances specified in d) below, repeat
the measurements until two standard deviations of the mean of all measurements is less than the
half of the tolerance specified in d) below. Use the mean as the measurement and the standard
deviation as the standard uncertainty. Use standard procedures to eliminate obvious outliers;
d) the following table shows the tolerances against the measurement distance:
Measurement Tolerance within
Up to 25 m 2 mm
over 25 m 3 mm
for offset 0,5 mm
e) if the measurements have been interrupted, the last measurements shall be repeated. If the new
measurements do not agree, within the required tolerance, with the earlier measurements, then the
earlier set shall be rejected.
4.6 Measurements by electro-optical distance-ranging (EODR) instrument
When measurements are carried out with an EODR instrument:
a) the electro-optical distance-ranging instrument shall be verified prior to calibration. The accuracy
of the distance-ranging unit as well as the angular measuring unit shall be verified using the
procedures given by ISO 7507-4:2010, Annex A;
b) the tank shall be free from vibration and air-borne dust particles. The floor of the tank should be as
free as possible from debris, dust and scales;
c) lighting, when required, shall be placed within the tank so as not to interfere with the operation the
EODR instrument;
d) the laser beam fitted to the EODR instrument shall be operated in conformity with IEC 60825-1.
The hazards, if any, in the area in which the calibration is to be carried out shall be assessed in
accordance with IEC 60079-10. The instrument to be used shall be declared (certified) as being safe
for use in the area of operation.

4.7 Condition of membrane
Care shall be taken to ensure that the membrane is in contact with the supporting material. In some
cases, it may be possible to ensure this contact by applying a vacuum to the space behind the membrane.
4.8 Safety precautions for work in membrane tanks
a) All regulations covering entry into hazardous areas shall be rigorously observed.
b) Before a tank which has been in use is entered, a safe-entry certificate issued in accordance with local
or national regulations shall be obtained. All line
