Field Notice 01-16 Published 7 January 2016 History/Purpose: The LNG as Fuel Workforce Development Committee (LNGFWDC) was created by The LGC NCOE and Headquarters in April 2015 to respond to the emerging use of LNG as fuel and bunkering operations. This committee was soon divided in two: LNG as Fueled vessels, and LNG bunkering facilities. These groups identify workforce needs and collectively develop draft deliverables to be used as recommendations. Then, these recommendations are disseminated as field notices for local units and industry to utilize on current and proposed projects.

The bunkering sub-committee identified the need for a job aid (guidance) for marine inspectors and industry on how to properly conduct a facility to vessel bunkering. During several months members of this sub-committee observed various operations and reviewed case studies from industry and other government agencies around the globe. The compilation of all these data resulted in Field Notice 01-16. This field notice is currently under annual revision, and should be ready to use by summer 2017.
A second field notice has been developed, currently under field test, concerning vessel to vessel LNG bunkering operations
