Q

On the DEEP DRILLER, among the starboard-side valves to open when deballasting from ballast tank 8S is valve __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Ballast system piping diagram for the DEEP DRILLER • How tank numbers relate (or don’t relate) to valve numbers on the starboard side • Difference between port (P) and starboard (S) ballast lines and manifolds

💭 Think About

• Look at the DEEP DRILLER ballast plan and trace the line from ballast tank 8S to the starboard deballasting manifold. Which specific valve is in that line? • Compare the valves you must open for deballasting 8P versus 8S. How are the valve numbers arranged along the manifold? • Ask yourself whether the valve number usually matches the tank number, or if there is a separate numbering scheme for valves on the common manifold.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify on the drawing which side (S vs P) you are working on and follow only that color/line style. • Confirm the exact label of ballast tank 8S and find its branch line to the manifold before looking at the answer choices. • Double‑check the valve identification legend on the DEEP DRILLER plan so you don’t confuse tank numbers with valve tag numbers.
