The following functional requirements are to be met;
Means shall be provided to control leaks of flammable liquids
Means shall be provided to limit the accumulation of flammable

vapours
Ignition sources shall be restricted

Ignition sources shall be separated from flammable liquids
02 September 2009

Arrangements for fuel oil, lubrication oil and other flammable oils:
No fuel oil with flash point of less than 60C should be used.
In emergency generators fuel oil with a flash point equal to or
higher than 43C may be used.
As far as feasible, parts of fuel oil system containing heated oil
under pressure exceeding 1.8 bar shall not
Be placed in concealed positions such that defects and leaks can
not be easily observed.
The engine room in way of these parts of the fuel oil system
shall be adequately illuminated.
02 September 2009

Fuel oil, lubrication oil and other flammable oils shall not be carried
in forepeak tanks.
As far as practicable, fuel oil tanks shall be part of the ships structure
and shall be located outside E/R.
When it is necessary to locate fuel oil tanks (except DB tanks)
adjacent to or within E/R
At least one of the tank sides shall be contiguous to the engine
rooms vertical boundaries, and
Shall preferably have a common boundary with the double
bottom tanks.
The area of the tank boundary common with the E/R
shall be kept to a minimum.

Acceptable Arrangements, MSC.1/Circ.1322
02 September 2009

When fuel oil tanks are situated within the boundaries of the E/R
They shall not contain fuel oil having a flash point of less than
60C.
In general, the use of free-standing fuel oil tanks shall be avoided.
When accepted, they shall be placed in an oil-tight spill tray of
ample size having a suitable drain pipe leading to a spill oil tank.
No fuel oil tank shall be situated where spill or leak therefrom can
represent a fire/explosion hazard by falling on heated surfaces.
