This paper gives the reason for the decrease of ship stability after cargo liquefaction and then analyzes the effect of different measures available for seafarers to improve stability. Due to infeasibility of putting these measures into marine practice, this paper concludes that each ship carrying cargo that may liquefy should completely observe relevant requirements of IMSBC Code. The responsibilities of other personnel involved in the shipment should also be emphasized, and the shipmaster's right to ensure the safety of the ship should be fully guaranteed.
