🔍 Key Concepts

• Safe storage of compressed gas cylinders in maritime environments • Differences between oxygen, hydrogen, and compressed air in terms of fire and explosion risk • Manufacturer and USCG/OSHA safety guidance on handling valves and lubricants for gas cylinders

💭 Think About

• Look at each option and ask: does this reduce risk of fire, explosion, or leakage, or does it increase it? • Which gases become more dangerous when exposed to oil/grease, open flame, or when their valves are opened improperly? • Which option describes a general, passive safety measure versus an active action that could create sparks, leaks, or ignition sources?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which gas (oxygen or hydrogen) is especially dangerous when combined with oil, grease, or other hydrocarbons • Check if "cracking" a valve is ever recommended for flammable gases in enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces • Identify which practice is about where cylinders are kept rather than how they are operated or modified
