LPG Cargo Calculation: B/L Loaded

This document outlines the steps to calculate the weight and volume of LPG cargo in tanks. It involves taking measurements of the liquid temperature, soundings, density, calculating corrections using tables, determining the liquid and vapor volumes and weights, and converting the final weight from a vacuum to air. The goal is to determine the total cargo weight in metric tons in both vacuum and air.
