What should you look at to determine the pressure and temperature limitations under which LFG is required to be transported on a barge?
• Where are cargo-specific limitations (like pressure and temperature for LFG) normally specified? • Difference between vessel documents (like a Certificate of Inspection), personnel qualifications, and voyage-specific paperwork (like loading orders). • What are general regulatory references versus documents that give actual operating limits for that specific cargo on that specific voyage.
• Ask yourself: which document is most likely to contain actual numbers and limits for this particular load of LFG on this particular trip? • Which option is mainly about the vessel itself, which is about people/crewmembers, and which is about this specific cargo transfer? • Think about which document you and the PIC (Person in Charge) would review right before loading to confirm how the cargo must be handled (conditions, limits, rates).
• Identify which choice is a voyage- and cargo-specific instruction that can include required conditions for that transfer. • Eliminate any option that mainly concerns crew qualifications rather than cargo parameters. • Eliminate any option that mainly lists regulatory framework or general vessel certification instead of specific loading conditions like pressure and temperature.
