Handling Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) cargo on fully refrigerated LPG carriers requires precise control of pressure and temperature to ensure operational safety and prevent venting. Venting is the release of gas vapor into the atmosphere when tank pressure exceeds operational limits, potentially leading to cargo loss, environmental pollution, and increased safety risks. This study aims to analyze the handling of propane and butane cargo, the factors causing venting, and prevention measures on the LPG carrier Prima Lautan II.
