This Code was developed to provide an international standard for the safe carriage by sea in bulk of liquefied gases and certain other substances. To minimize the risks to the ships, their crews and the environment, the Code prescribes the design and constructional features of such ships and the equipment they should carry. Generally applies to ships built on or after 31 December 1976 but prior to 1 July 1986. This edition incorporates amendments 1 to 4, including a supplement containing amendments adopted in 1994 by resolution MSC.32(63), which came into force on 1 July 1998, and a supplement, Summary of Minimum Requirements of the Code.
