Abstract: We consider log Calabi-Yau pairs of the form $(\mathbb{P}^3, D)$, where $D$ is a quartic surface, up to volume-preserving equivalence. The coregularity of the pair $(\mathbb{P}^3, D)$ is a discrete volume-preserving invariant $c=0,1$ or $2$, and which depends on the nature of the singularities of $D$. We classify all pairs $(\mathbb{P}^3,D)$ of coregularity $c=0$ or $1$ up to volume preserving equivalence. In particular, if $c=0$ then we show that $(\mathbb{P}^3, D)$ admits a volume preserving birational map onto a toric pair.
