🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for oil transfer operations • Purpose of hose length limits during bulk oil transfer • How vessel movement (e.g., surge, sway, tide) affects hose strain

💭 Think About

• Think about why the Coast Guard cares about hose length during oil transfers: is it mainly about distance, or about preventing stress and failure? • Which option describes a condition-based requirement rather than a fixed distance? • If a ship moves at the berth (tide, passing traffic), what must the hoses be able to do safely without getting stretched or kinked?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check whether the regulation gives a fixed maximum length or a performance-based standard about vessel movement and strain on hoses. • Confirm that the correct choice focuses on preventing strain, tension, or kinking in the hose during all expected vessel movements. • Verify in 33 CFR or 46 CFR that the requirement is tied to safe operating conditions, not an arbitrary multiple of the ship–dock distance.
