🔍 Key Concepts

• Hazards of solid bulk cargoes, especially coal • Ventilation requirements for cargoes that can emit flammable or toxic gases • Differences between real hazards and normal operating precautions

💭 Think About

• Think about which listed items are well-known, documented hazards associated with coal cargoes on ships. • Consider which option describes something that must always be carefully managed when carrying coal, versus something that might not always be required. • Ask yourself: which choice sounds more like a specific operational practice that may or may not apply, rather than an inherent danger of the cargo itself?

✅ Before You Answer

• Review what typical hazards of coal cargoes are (heating, gas emission, corrosion). • Check the International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes (IMSBC) Code guidance on coal for its main listed risks. • Verify which item is a mandatory concern in all cases when carrying coal and which may depend on the ship/cargo arrangement.
