See profile review date in Sources. General preparation and cleaning reference. Selecting a cargo does not authorise carriage, hold acceptance, enclosed-space entry or discharge. Use the exact declaration, vessel SMS, current schedule, manufacturer instructions and company-approved work plan.
MASTER’S CARGO FILE
Potassium chloride (MOP potash)
Potash alone is insufficient; confirm KCl identity.
Protect against ingress; follow schedule ventilation provisions and monitor caking.
Record measurements/observations with time, hold and method.
Report abnormalities to the master; do not enter a loaded hold to inspect.
Obtain measurement intervals, alarm thresholds and ventilation regime from the exact cargo schedule and approved plan. Do not enter a loaded hold to inspect.

Previous cargo is unknown. Establish cargo history and remaining product before choosing a cleaning method.
PREVIOUS RESIDUE→NEW CARGO REQUIREMENTS→DOCUMENT AND FIELD CHECKS
Open a numbered heading to inspect the highlighted area and its check note together. The drawing does not authorise access or entry.
Original cutaway, not to scale. Numbers identify inspection areas, not hull construction, work platforms or rescue arrangements. Inspect upper areas only through approved safe access/observation methods.
1Hatch underside & coaming
Check deposits that may fall back from hatch undersides and channels. Keep drainage clear.
These stages support preparation of the approved work plan. Dry recovery, prewashing, chemical application and rinsing sequences differ between products.

Define the task
Record: Cargo declaration + written acceptance criteria
Stop / reassess: Do not select a method with unknown residue or standard.
How should I assess this?
Write down previous residue, intended cargo and required standard. Plan water, equipment, time and waste arrangements accordingly.

Residue and wash-water detail
Residue and wash-water plan
Determine the cargo’s HME status and assess cleaning agents, discharge location and applicable MARPOL Annex V/local requirements. A supplier’s non-HME statement for a cleaner does not itself authorise discharge of the complete wash-water mixture. Arrange reception facilities when required and retain the applicable records.
No ready-made chemical application package is supplied for this sequence. Exact residue, cargo, coating and reactivity information requires a company/manufacturer/specialist method.
Ticks are cleared when you leave this page. Print/save the completed checklist to your own record system. Ticking items does not grant permission or acceptance.
Check publication dates and later changes. Club guidance, manufacturer documents and binding schedules have different roles. This file is not a complete carriage manual.
