A SNAME Ad Hoc Panel on Tanker Stability was formed in response to concerns about the potential for lolling incidents dangerous to life, and the environment with certain double hull tankers. A working group was formed toinvestigate the influence of design parameters on the intact stability ofdouble hull tankers. This report describes the results of that inRestigation. The value of tank arrangements utilizing centerline bulkheads in bothcargo and ballast spaces was brough forth. The roles of breadth/depth ratio, specific gravity, lightship vertical center of gravity are documented.An addendum, titled "Considerations for Lolling Prevention", was preparedby the full SNAME Ad Panel on Tanker Stability.
