🔍 Key Concepts

• Inert gas systems are designed to safely blanket cargo tanks during cargo operations • The required gas supply capacity is linked to the operation that can most rapidly change the tank atmosphere • Think about which shipboard rate (fan, draft, pump, or shore loading) directly controls how fast hydrocarbon vapors are displaced in the tanks

💭 Think About

• When loading or discharging cargo, which flow rate actually determines how quickly tanks are filled or emptied? • Which of the listed rates is set by the terminal/ship interface and is critical for keeping tank oxygen content below the limit at all times? • If the inert gas supply was sized only to match one of these rates exactly (100%), what risk would exist during peak or fluctuating operations?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to the maximum cargo transfer rate that the ship must be able to safely match with inert gas • Confirm which rate is external/operational, not just a machinery rating like fan or draft capacity • Verify that the chosen option would ensure positive pressure and low oxygen in all cargo tanks during the fastest expected cargo operation
