Import Tips
• Tankers require MARPOL Annex II certification; provide P&A manifest 24 hours prior to loading
• Conduct pre-shipment evaporation rate testing per ISO 3013 to verify against specification drift
• Maintain temperature logs (15-25°C) during 30-day transoceanic transit to prevent ester hydrolysis
