A liquid loading assembly for filling a ship-hold or tank with a volatile liquid, includes an oil supply conduit, fluidly connected to the tank, the outlet end of said conduit extending vertically within a dropline. The dropline extends from a lower dropline end positioned below the outlet end of the oil supply conduit to an upper dropline end positioned above the outlet end of the oil supply conduit, the lower dropline end being at least partially closed by a valve. The valve is arranged to open gradually up to a maximum aperture in response to one of i) increased pressure on the valve and ii) a level of liquid above the valve.
