1.2 | Precautions for minimising risks associated with volatile liquids are identified and recorded |
1.3 | Safety and environmental requirements for refuelling vessel are identified and recorded |
1.4 | Fuel is selected based on vessel use and manufacturer requirements |
1.5 | Procedures for refuelling are identified and followed established according to workplace procedures and relevant regulations and standards |
2 | Prepare for refuelling | 2.1 | Personal protection is identified, accessed and used |
2.2 | Firefighting and spill response equipment is located and checked, faulty equipment is replaced and faults are reported |
2.3 | Refuelling equipment is checked and secured according to workplace procedures |
2.4 | Vessel is positioned and secured for refuelling |
2.5 | Tank valves are opened as necessary |
3 | Refuel vessel | 3.1 | Safety and environmental requirements for refuelling vessel are applied |
3.2 | Vessel is refuelled according to workplace procedures, and relevant regulations and standards |
3.3 | Workplace procedures are followed to contain spill and minimise environment or safety dangers |
3.4 | Fuel levels are checked and if acceptable, refuelling is completed |
4 | Complete refuelling | 4.1 | Refuelling equipment is cleaned and stowed according to workplace procedures |
4.2 | Spillage is cleaned up according to workplace procedures |
4.3 | Required documentation is completed according to workplace procedures |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions on at least one occasion and include: |
applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements and safe work practices checking for and activating ventilation devices checking fuel levels completing documentation for refuelling activities completing vessel refuelling in a consistent and timely way complying with environmental procedures and response plans identifying and checking firefighting equipment identifying correct fuel for the application implementing the requirements, procedures and techniques for the safe, effective and efficient refuelling of vessels interpreting HAZCHEM (or similar) requirements locating, reading and applying relevant documentation, policies and procedures refilling fuel containers and tanks selecting and fitting appropriate personal protective equipment. |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions and include knowledge of: |

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations, current at the time of assessment.
As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations, current at the time of assessment.
Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
Assessment must occur in a fully operational marina or, where this is not available, in simulated workplace operational situations that reflect workplace conditions where refuelling vessels can be applied.
Resources for assessment include:
dedicated tools and equipment, materials and parts currently used in industry including:
masks or respirators
goggles/face shields
gloves and appropriate clothing
applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
