🔍 Key Concepts

• Differences between clean ballast, dirty ballast, and arrival ballast on tank vessels • How ballast condition is defined by previous cargo residues in the tanks • Why ports and terminals care about the condition of ballast water on arrival

💭 Think About

• Think about what condition the ballast tanks are typically in when a tanker finishes discharging cargo and is coming into the next port. • Ask yourself: is arrival ballast required to be free of oil, allowed to contain some oil residue, or is it defined simply by salinity (fresh/brackish/sea water)? • Which term among the choices is specifically linked to oil content and tank cleanliness, not just the type of water?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option refers to ballast that may contain oil or cargo residues from a previous cargo. • Distinguish between terms that describe the quality/contamination of ballast versus those that describe the source/salinity of the water. • Make sure you are choosing a term that is used in tanker and pollution-prevention regulations, not just a general description of seawater.
