When the ullage is 6.4 feet in P-Tank #5 for the Deep Driller, what is the value of the longitudinal moment?
⢠Use the ullage (empty space above the liquid) to find the volume or weight of liquid in P-Tank #5 from the tank calibration table for the Deep Driller ⢠From the same tank table, find the corresponding longitudinal moment for that ullage (or for the volume/weight at that ullage) ⢠Pay attention to the sign convention (positive/negative) used for longitudinal moments in the Deep Drillerās stability data
⢠What is the relationship between ullage and the amount of cargo in the tank, and how do the tank tables help you convert one to the other? ⢠Once you locate 6.4 feet ullage in the tank table, what column(s) on that line give you the information you need to identify the longitudinal moment? ⢠If 6.4 feet ullage is not listed exactly, how should you handle values that fall between two listed ullages in the table?
⢠Confirm you are using the correct tank table for P-Tank #5 on the Deep Driller (not a different tank) ⢠Verify the ullage entry of 6.4 feet is read correctly (no confusion with sounding or another unit) ⢠Double-check the sign (ā or +) of the moment and match the exact numerical value from the table or proper interpolation to one of the choices
