... These and other assumptions are noted below: · Vessel retrofit costs Normal annual terminal use -- 2,000 hr/yr Interest rate for amortization -- 10% Equipment life (including retrofit) -- 20 years Vapor recovery efficiency -- 99.8% Incinerator costs (capital, amortization of capital, maintenance, pilot gas, fans)

... The "fleet factor" is the average vessel lay down or throughput of cargo per unit time. The values in the table are very rough assumptions and can vary greatly for a specific terminal.

... It must be understood that the costs for a specific terminal can be very different than the results presented here since costs are very sensitive to length of piping run and other terminal specifics. REFERENCE United Technical Design, Inc.
