With reference to your letter of the 5th March,
P.3.1399/35j on the question of the procedure to he followed
and the disposition to he made of oil with which the sea
loading line is to he kept filled when ships discharge
"ballast water ashore, I agree that, if the sea line is kept
full of oil, and it has been agreed that it is quite
reasonable that it should, it will be fair to allow a
deduction to be made for purposes 01 assessing royalty in
respect of any oil in the pipeline which may be returned to
the Sitrah tanks so as to enable ballast water to oe pumped
ashore. I have had the figure of the capacity of the
pipeline checked on the data supplied by tne Company and it
is correctly given.
Subject to the conditions mentioned in xhe penultimate
paragraph of Ballantyne' s letter of 28th February, I think
you would be justified in expressing concurrence m the
procedure proposed. But, of course,, it is necessary to
/ make/
