🔍 Key Concepts

• Oil transfer operations emergency procedures in 33 CFR and company/terminal manuals • Hierarchy of actions: immediate pollution prevention, then notification and cleanup • When equipment is defective or leaking, what is normally required before continuing operations

💭 Think About

• What action directly stops or prevents additional oil from being released, rather than just managing what has already leaked? • In oil transfer operations, when critical transfer equipment (like hoses or couplings) is not sound, are you usually allowed to keep pumping under modified conditions, or must something be corrected first? • Which option addresses the actual cause of the leak versus the symptoms or consequences of the leak?

✅ Before You Answer

• Which choices allow cargo transfer to continue despite a known leak, and is that normally acceptable? • Which choice treats the source of the leak (the faulty coupling/gasket) rather than just slowing or catching the leak? • Consider what most oil transfer procedures say about continuing operations with a known equipment defect.
