Detailed Overview

This Sounding Logbook provides a systematic record of tank soundings, ullages, temperatures and calculated volumes on board ship. While no international convention mandates a standalone sounding logbook, accurate and regular measurement of tank contents is an operational requirement that underpins compliance with the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL), and the International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention (ISM Code).
