BP Shipping Ltd
vessel Screening

vessels are screened on each occasion they are proposed for BP Group business by a BP entity. This includes
carrying BP cargo or visiting terminals or facilities managed or operated by the BP Group.

Evaluation of the suitability of vessels for a BP operation is carried out by BP Shipping's Vetting and Clearance
(V&C) teams based in Melbourne, Guangzhou, Singapore, Rotterdam, London, and Chicago.

Screening of vessels will not be carried out at the request of any third parties including ship owners.

Any approval granted to a vessel will only be valid for the proposed operation. If the vessel is proposed for
a subsequent BP operation, it will be screened again by the V&C team. It should not be assumed that an
approval in the past will mean the vessel will be approved for another BP operation in the future.

The screening process prior to using a vessel for a BP operation will be based on review of all available
information concerning the performance of the vessel, its manager and the fleet, and is not simply based on
the most recent OCIMF SIRE inspection report. The vessel screening process and possible approval may be
affected by future international or national statutory changes and/or any alteration in BP Group policy.

Legislative documents, industry recommendations and other BP specific requirements are the basis on which
companies and vessels are assessed prior to being approved for a BP operation. BP Shipping supports the letter
and spirit of all applicable international conventions and standards including guidance documents provided by
OCIMF and SIGTTO; example ISGOTT and Liquefied Gas Handling Principles.

BP Shipping considers as best practice that all chemical and oil vessels, without regard to their deadweight,
should be outfitted with a SOLAS compliant Inert Gas System. Any cargo tank loaded with an oil cargo having
a (closed cup) Flash Point of less than 60 deg C should be inerted. Any cargo tanks loaded with chemical
cargoes having a (closed cup) Flash Point of less than 60 deg C should be inerted with Nitrogen. The use of
Inert Gas should be in accordance with the contents of the OCIMF information paper titled "OCIMF - Guidance
on the Use of Inert Gas Systems for the Carriage of Flammable Oil Cargoes" or the CDI publication - Best
Practice Recommendation Regarding the use of Nitrogen.

Casualty and Port State inspection reports are received daily into the BP Shipping's database. Where
a vessel has a PSC inspection with deficiencies owners should send a PSC deficiency close out report to
[email protected]. Owners are encouraged to send their incident reports to the OCIMF incident report
repository set up by OCIMF at the request of INTERTANKO. These reports feed directly into BP's database
and removes the need to send the reports to BP separately. PSC close out reports and incident reports will be
reviewed as part of the vessel screening process when that vessel is proposed for a BP operation.

Vessel Inspection Process

BP Shipping employs the OCIMF SIRE inspection format (VIQ) as the primary vessel inspection tool for all
third party hydrocarbon carrying vessels. All inspections carried out by BP Shipping under the SIRE system
are submitted to the OCIMF SIRE database. Every SIRE report issued by a BP inspector is reviewed by a V&C
Superintendent prior to its release to the vessel manager via the OCIMF SIRE programme.
