🔍 Key Concepts

• Inert Gas System (IGS) pressure control during cargo discharge • Relationship between tank pressure and cargo pump rate • Function of pressure/vacuum (P/V) valves and pressure control valves in inerted tanks

💭 Think About

• If tank pressure is falling while you are discharging, what is changing faster: the rate you are taking liquid out or the rate you are putting inert gas in? • Which action directly reduces the demand on the inert gas system without risking over-stressing the tanks or equipment? • Which options might create sudden pressure changes or over-pressurization rather than gently stabilizing tank pressure?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options change the cargo discharge rate versus which change gas supply or valve positions • Consider which action is safest and most immediately effective to stop pressure from falling below safe limits • Eliminate any option that could cause rapid pressure fluctuations or loss of control of the inert gas system
