🔍 Key Concepts

• Inert gas system operations on tankers • Difference between purging, gas freeing, and normal tank ventilation • Purpose of reducing oxygen and hydrocarbon content below flammable limits

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When a tank is already inert, what is the goal of adding more inert gas – are you trying to make it safe for entry, or to better resist ignition if air leaks in? • Think about which term is used when you are preparing a tank for hot work or human entry versus when you are preparing it to withstand accidental air ingress without becoming flammable. • Match each option with the condition of the tank: Which terms apply when the tank is full of flammable vapors, which when it is being cleaned to fresh air, and which when it is already inert and you are just improving its safety margin?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which operation is defined in tanker practice as reducing oxygen content by introducing inert gas, even though the tank is already inert. • Confirm which term refers to making a tank safe for entry by removing hydrocarbons and bringing it close to fresh air conditions. • Eliminate any options that describe processes unrelated to inert gas systems, such as electrical safety measures or generic dispersion of gases.
