“Closed Cycle” crude oil washing means that the tanker’s slop tank is used as the reservoir for the crude oil wash stock and this wash stock is stripped or cycled back to the slop tank for reuse. Thus, using a defined volume of crude oil for washing of the specified cargo tanks will limit the amount of VOC associated with the wash stock volume as distinct from using fresh crude oil throughout the washing programme.
