BALLAST WATER TREATMENT: A MAJOR UNDERTAKING [PDF]
International Oil Spill Conference Proceedings, 1971 ABSTRACT Port Valdez is an important fishery resource area located at the proposed terminus of a 48 inch diameter, 800 mile, crude oil pipeline system. This terminus facility will provide for the transfer of crude oil to large oil tankers for shipment to the “lower 48” and will also provide for the treatment of oily ballast water from ...
