Introduction
Design and Manufacture
The specification and design of the equipment fitted
to the tank container is important to the ongoing safe
access to the top of the tank.
The design engineer should consider, in consultation with
the client, the proposed operational use of the tank.
Tank containers are primarily designed for filling and
discharge at a terminal facility that is equipped with
permanent top access gantries.
Tank containers are fitted with a ladder and a top walkway as a secondary provision, recognising that personnel
may need to gain access to the top of tank for various
reasons including inspection and maintenance.
The shipper’s personnel at filling and discharge facilities
should access the tank via permanent site gantries fitted
with guard rails.
However, if the tank is to be filled and discharged
without a terminal site gantry, the design may need to
incorporate provisions such as for the walk-way to cover
a wider area of the tank top surface to effectively form a
platform and be provided with guard rails.
ISO 1496.3 provides guidance. Refer also to other
applicable regulations.

1.3 Walk-way (top surface platform)

Shipper & Receiver Terminal
Shippers (consignor) and receivers (consignee) or
companies acting on their behalf should undertake all
tank operations, such as filling, that are carried out on
their terminal site.
The terminal management are required by health and
safety legislation to ensure that measures are taken
to ensure safe working for personnel, including the
prevention of falls by persons working on top of the tank.
The shipper’s terminal filling and or discharge facilities
should be equipped with appropriate gantries to safely
access the top of the tank.
Note:
In the context of the filling and discharge terminal facility, the personnel engaged by the terminal to fill or discharge the tank might be potentially confusingly referred to as “operators”
There is an important difference between the role of
the “tank container operator” and the shipper’s terminal operator or operations.
The tank container Industry uses the term “tank
container operator” to describe the supplier of the tank
and logistics services.
The tank operator provides a logistics service, arranges
the delivery of the tank to and from the shipper’s
terminal.
When located at the shipper’s or receiver’s terminal the
tank should be “operated” by the terminal personnel who should undertake the filling and discharge process.
However, in some countries it is recognised that trucking company personnel might be requested to carryout tasks at the shipper’s terminal in which case there should be a risk assessment and appropriate function specific training.

Tank Service Providers
The requirement for maintenance and inspection
requires that personnel access the top of the tank.
1、Inspection – This might sometimes take place in the
yard where fall protection harness is employed.
2、Repairs – This usually takes place in the workshop area
where working at height gantries can be provided.
Both the service providers employees and external
personnel present on the premises, are required to be
protected.
All personnel should receive safety training as required
by health and safety legislation.
The service provider should verify the training of external personnel and provide additional training and instruction specific to the service providers premises.
Service provider / client contracts should include safety
obligations of each party.

Risk Assessment
Risk assessment should be carried out to assess hazards
and the necessary measures to control risk.
Risk assessment should be obtained the appointed safety advisor or other qualified person.
Risks to consider include:
Height of the working position
Frequency of access
The task
Equipment to be handled
Personal Protective Equipment to be worn
Location and exposure to weather conditions
Level of supervision
Operating procedures
Maintenance procedures
Training and qualification of personnel
