Tech/Engineering - Petroleum Eng/Sci / Ship to shore loading/unloading of Pygas
Dutch term or phrase: voetje zetten
In a set of instructions concerning the loading and unloading of pyrolysis gasoline from ship to shore, the following:

"Afstemmen pompsnelheid van reguliere laad/lossnelheid, maar ook pompsnelheid voor starten/’voetje zetten’."

I think it may have something to do with filling the first foot of a pipeline but I am not sure. Can anyone throw some light on this and give me a correct English translation?
