The complete details of a crude oil washing system aboard your vessel, including the operating sequences and procedures, design characteristics, a description of the system, and required personnel will be found in the __________.
• Crude Oil Washing (COW) documentation required by MARPOL and U.S. regulations • Difference between a ship-specific operating manual and general regulatory texts (like the CFR) • What kind of manual must be approved for each tanker that uses COW
• Which of these options sounds like a detailed, ship-specific manual that would include sequences, diagrams, and crew requirements, rather than just general regulations? • Does an Oil Transfer Procedures Manual normally cover cargo tank internal washing systems, or mostly deals with cargo transfer and pollution prevention procedures? • Would the Certificate of Inspection addendum contain step‑by‑step operating sequences, or just brief endorsements/limitations?
• Identify which document is required to be specific to each vessel and its COW system • Confirm which option is known to include operating sequences and procedures, design characteristics, and personnel requirements for COW • Eliminate any option that is primarily a regulatory book or a short endorsement document, not a full operations manual
