Q

What are the primary concern(s) for safely transporting and handling liquefied gas?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Integral safety of cargo containment system: tanks, piping, and associated equipment must work together safely • Leak prevention and control: containment, detection, and protection from physical damage are critical with liquefied gas cargoes • Design pressure and structural strength: cargo system must withstand pressure and expected service conditions

💭 Think About

• Which options deal with keeping the liquefied gas inside the system under all normal conditions? • How could physical damage to tanks or piping affect safety, even if the system does not leak under normal conditions? • For liquefied gas, why is resistance to internal pressure especially important compared to some other bulk cargoes?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which choices contribute directly to preventing leaks and loss of containment • Confirm which items reduce the risk of mechanical/impact damage to cargo tanks and piping • Identify the choice(s) that ensure the system can safely handle internal pressure and operating conditions of liquefied gas cargoes
