40 ft. Mean tidal range at berth 4.5 ft. General: The Wilkes Barre Terminal of the American Chemical Company islocated 26 miles from the Sea Buoy on the

Providence River. This facilitywas formerly operated by Exxon Company USA. It is now operated by UnionOil Company of California and Getty Oil Co Inc. The

wharf has a 75 ft. face,300 ft. with dolphins; 30 ft. depth alongside. Deck height of 9 ft.The berth can accommodate vessels up to 600 ft. in length, 85 ft. beam,

maximum 25,000 d.w.t., and maximum drafts to 27 ft. Docking isaccomplished at HW or rising tide only. Undocking can take place at anystate of the tide.

Pilotage and Docking: The services of a Pilot and Docking Master arerecommended. The width in the existing berthing area and requiredapproachmanoeuvres make utilisation of the Docking Master mandatory. Two tugs areequired when docking vessels of any tonnage. A minimum of one tug

(1,800 h.p.) is required when undocking. During strong southerly winds twotugs should be employed for undocking.

Mooring: Normal mooring leads are adequate for this berth. However, strongsoutherly winds are cause for concern. There is a poor lead for the afterspring and

breast lines. During times of excessive southerly winds, all linesshould be tended and checked frequently. The terminal does not provide a

gangway.Only No. 2 heating oil is discharged at this terminal. Discharge isaccomplished through 2_8 in. hoses using ASA flange connections. Pumping

pressure is 125 p.s.i. The terminal has no facilities for receiving ballast orslopsAmoco, Providence, Kettle Pt:

General: The Amoco Wharf is on the east side of Providence River 26 milesfrom the Sea Buoy. This wharf is used for the receipt and shipment ofpetroleum

products. The berth is aligned north and south with a total of sixwooden breasting dolphins. The wharf has a 500 ft. face (600 ft. withdolphins). Hose rig and hoist

are located on a T-head 90 ft. long, 30 ft. wideat the centre of the pier.conditions. One tug is used for normal undocking. Both tugs and Docking

Master meet the vessel 0.5 miles below Kettle Point and assist vessels tothe berth.

Gasoline, heating oil, diesel, and No. 5 fuel are all discharged through 8 in.hoses. All connections are made with ASA flanges. Maximum pumping

pressure for all cargo lines is 90 p.

Tankers: LPG discharged at No. 5. Municipal wharf at a bulk rate of750 tonnes per hour, through a 10 in. chicksan. This chicksan is a mobileone

connectedtemporarily into an underground line, and jacked up off itswheels; thus it is rather fragile and demands precise positioning during

berthing, and careful control of the list during the discharge as it is at itsmaximum reach when a 60,000 cu.m. vessel is in ballast.

Density: Salt.

Fire Precautions: LPG Tanker, only those imposed by the ship.Surveyors: Saybolt attended this LPG vessel on behalf of receivers.

Gangway/Deck Watchmen: None. Ships accommodation ladder wasused to the wharf.Customs Allowances: Usual USA allowances but no check of

ARRIVAL AT YORKTOWN, Virginia: 37_14' N 076_30' W(See Plan)

Also see General before first port

OPERATORS REPORT: January 1981.

LOCATION: The Amoco Oil Terminal at Yorktown, Virginia is located about3 miles below the York River bridge on the south side of the riverapproximately 38 miles from the Chesapeake Bay Sea Buoy CB.

Co-ordinates of the terminal are Lat. 37_13' 37" N, Long. 75_26' 23" W.A 3,000 ft. finger pier ending with a marginal pier, reaches the deepwaterchannel in the

river. Tankers supply the refinery with crude and intermediatefeedstocks which are refined into gasolines, fuel oil, liquefied petroleum gas,coke, and liquid sulphur

which is distributed by barges and tankers.

MAX. SIZE: The pier has depths of 40 ft. along the outer face.

APPROACHES: Cautionary Advice: RDF stations at Chesapeake Lightand Cape Henry provide coverage for position fixing and numerous buoys

mark the fairways, channels and obstructions. While proceeding to the Pilot 3248 Readers are encouraged to send updates and additions (pagexi)

Station one should be aware of the heavy traffic in this area and the shipshould stay within the prescribed traffic lane. Careful consideration shouldbe given to the

current, which has a velocity of up to 3.0 knots and higherand which tends to set a vessel out of the channel.

PILOTAGE: Pilots board 1.5 miles NE of Cape Henry Light. Vessels shoulduse traffic lanes as outlined on Chart No. 12221 when approaching the pilotarea.

US flag should call the Chesapeake Federal pilot boat approximately 1 hourbefore arrival to arrange Pilot embarkation. Non-US flag vessels should call

the Virginia State pilot boat 1 hour before arrival.

ANCHORAGES: Anchorage and Lightering: Vessels requiring lighteringproceed to Hampton Roads where all lightering operations are conducted.

This channel is well marked and presents no difficulties. Upon completion oflightering, the vessel must return to Cape Henry before proceeding to the

berth. The bottom of Hampton Roads consists of soft mud and provides goodholding ground.

PRE-ARRIVAL INFORMATION: ETA messages should be sent to

Agent 72, 48 and 24 hours before arrival. Any change in ETA should alsobe advised, as the pilot vessel is not continually on station. Advise draft(brackish water)

in first message.VHF:

Marine Operators Norfolk Channels 16, 22, 27

BERTHS: The Docking Master boards the vessel from a tug 1 2 mileseast of the Amoco Dock. Two tugs are generally used for docking; vessels

over 28,000 d.w.t. may require 3 tugs at the Docking Masters discretion. Thevessel makes a normal marginal approach to Dock No. 1 with the tugs

breasting the vessel alongside and holding it there until secured. Vesselsgenerally dock port side to at Berth No. 1. Berth No. 2 is of new construction

and is located 1,122 ft. to the West of Berth No. 1. When docking at BerthNo. 2, vessels approach Dock No. 1 on a southwesterly heading to initially

avoid a shoal area located NNW of Berth No. 2. When the vessel is within550 ft. of Berth No. 2, the approach is made parallel to the dock face untilthe vessel is off the dock when it is breasted into position port side to by thetugs. Extra caution must be exercised when approaching Dock No. 2 when

there is a ship at Dock No. 1. At Dock No. 2, difficulties will be experiencedin placing vessels gangway due to the extremely limited dock spaceamidships.

No. 2 Tanker Dock is equipped with 2_12 in. chicksan arms for crude or.No. 6 Oil discharge. Weather conditions are carefully monitored by terminal

personnel, and vessels are shut down when conditions warrant such action.

WASTE DISPOSAL: A dumpster is provided at the end of the dock.
