🔍 Key Concepts

• Order of priorities in an emergency (life, then environment, then property) • Basic principles of firefighting during cargo transfer • Importance of controlling the source of fuel and energy in any fire

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: what action will immediately reduce or eliminate the hazard that is feeding both the spill and the fire? • Which choice addresses the cause of the problem, not just the visible effects like flames or spilled cargo? • In cargo transfer operations, what is usually the very first control you use when something goes wrong with the transfer system?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option actually stops or isolates the cargo flow feeding the leak and fire • Check which actions could safely be done only after the situation is stabilized and the source controlled • Consider standard emergency procedures in cargo transfer manuals: what is the initial response step when a leak and fire occur?
