🔍 Key Concepts

• Pollution prevention while bunkering (fueling) • Role of the shore pumping station vs. vessel valves and vents • Purpose of tank vents and expansion trunks on fuel tanks

💭 Think About

• When tanks are nearly full, who actually controls the pumping rate most effectively: the shipboard crew at the deck valve, or the shore pumping station? • What is the main function of tank vents and expansion trunks: to prevent spills, or to protect the tank structure and allow for expansion? • Which option best reflects standard safe bunkering practice to avoid pressure build-up and overflows?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you do not choose an option that would cause dangerous over-pressurization of the tank. • Check which action provides early control of the flow rate before the tank reaches full capacity. • Verify which choice matches standard bunkering communication and control procedures (ship–shore coordination).
