Liquefied Gas Handling Principles On Ships and in Terminals/Принципы обращения со сжиженным газом на судах и терминалах

Издания на английском языке
Third Edition
Liquefied Gas Handling Principles, after two previous editions, is firmly established as the standard text for the industry’s operational side. It is an indispensible companion for all those training for operational qualifications and an accessible work of reference for those already directly engaged in liquefied gas operations. Its appeal extends also to many others, not directly involved in the operational aspects of the industry, who require a comprehensive and ready reference for technical aspects of their businesses.
It is therefore important for Liquefied Gas Handling Principles to be kept thoroughly up to date. Although there are no single major changes from previous editions, this, its
Third Edition, comprises many amendments that together ensure the work is kept current with contemporary operating practices.
