🔍 Key Concepts

• Cargo tank level measurements on tankers • Difference between measurements taken from the bottom up vs. from the top down • Standard industry terms used on soundings and ullage reports

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when a gauger opens a tank hatch and measures how much empty space is above the liquid, what is that called? • Which term refers to measuring from the bottom of the tank up to the liquid level instead? • Think about which of these words you have seen on ullage/sounding tables or cargo calculation forms and what they represented.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term describes the empty space between liquid surface and tank top, not the liquid itself • Separate in your mind: one term is for height of liquid, another is for height of empty space • Before choosing, picture a tanker officer saying: "What is the current ___ in No. 2 cargo tank?" and asking specifically for the space above the liquid.
