This invention discloses a method for arranging a methanol preparation compartment on an Aframax oil tanker, belonging to the field of ship design technology. This method involves setting up an independent methanol preparation compartment in the area adjacent to the methanol fuel storage tank on the main deck of the cargo hold, housing the methanol day-use tank within it. The enclosure wall of this methanol preparation compartment serves as the sole isolation barrier, eliminating the need for an external isolation compartment around the methanol day-use tank in existing technologies. Within the methanol preparation compartment, a methanol transfer pump, a methanol purge and collection tank in the form of an independent structural cabinet, a methanol oil sludge collection tank, a methanol supply unit, a methanol supply valve assembly, and a methanol bilge pump are centrally integrated, along with a shared ventilation and fire suppression system. This invention, through integrated design, improves ship space utilization, simplifies supporting systems, reduces construction costs, achieves centralized control of methanol equipment, facilitates operation and maintenance, and is applicable to the arrangement of methanol fuel preparation compartments on various types of Aframax oil tankers.
