Chevron in San Francisco does not anticipate Year 2000 problems to affect the importing of oil. However, the company will not operate vessels in restricted water, such as narrow passages or ports, on Dec. 31, 1999, because officials are concerned that on-board systems may receive contaminated data from systems that are not Year 2000-compliant.
Chevron is testing its 35 tankers -- a process that will take nine days and cost about $15,000 per tanker. |
