Why is it necessary to check for cold spots in the hold spaces of an LNG carrier during loaded voyages?

To check the efficiency of the insulation between the cargo tank and the hull.

LNG cargo containment systems frequently leak.

Because there is not normally any temperature monitoring of the hold space.

To check for signs of leakage since the very cold carriage temperatures for LNG could result in hull structural damage in the unlikely event of a leak.

In preparing a reefer vessel for loading the next cargo a careful inspection of the cargo spaces should be carried out. All required maintenance and the repair of any damage identified during the inspection should be completed prior to loading. Select, from the options given, the most appropriate action to be taken when the maintenance and any repairs are completed.

Keep a record of the hours worked as a basis for a claim against the previous charterers.

Make a detailed record of all maintenance and repairs carried out for presentation to the supervisor at the loading port as proof that the vessel is in an acceptable condition for loading the cargo.

Don't bother recording anything as this type of work is considered routine.

Keep a record of all the repairs in the planned maintenance schedule.

If the vessels separate, the other vessel may run away and you will be the only one to blame.

That the separation may cause sparks that can possibly ignite the oil or any other flammable substances.

You are loading a cargo of Vinyl Acetate Monomer to several tanks on board. Tank 6 centre is about to finish and the next tank to load is 2 centre. How will you operate the valves to achieve this change-over?

I will close the valves for tank 6 centre when the required ullage is reached and then open the valves for 2 centre.

When the required ullage is reached in tank 6 centre, I will close the manifold valve, then close the tank valves for that tank. I will then open the tank valves for 2 centre and finally open the manifold valve again. (Using the manifold valve to control the flow avoids any pressure-surge in the shore line).

I will open the valves for tank 2 centre and then close those for 6 centre, as the required ullage is reached.

I will stop loading cargo when tank 6 centre reaches its required ullage and close the valves to that tank. I will then open up the valves to tank 2 centre and resume loading cargo.

A change in load will not affect a speed sensing governor.

Altering the compensation needle valve has no effect on speed control.

Ask the surveyor to wait in the tank alone while you take the funnel up to the accommodation and rinse it in clean, fresh water.

Immediately instruct the surveyor to leave the tank and collect a substitute set of equipment.

Nothing. The odd drop of sweat will not usually make any difference.

Some specialised vessels, mainly those involved in the carriage of fish, are capable of carriage temperatures as low as minus 60 degree Celsius. From the options given select the one that best describes why such low temperatures are used.

At minus 62 degrees Celsius the eutectic point is reached and all water in the cells is frozen.

Longer transport times are possible and hence less powerful vessels are required.

Higher charter rates can be achieved.

Quick temperature reduction is possible.

Marine diesel engines are normally provided with automatic protection devices which operate in the event of abnormal conditions arising. Why would medium speed engines used for main propulsion normally only automatically slow down for certain abnormal conditions but automatically shut down for the same conditions when used to drive an alternator?

The gearbox and clutch of the propulsion system may be damaged if the engine suddenly stopped.

Sudden total loss of propulsive power may seriously endanger the vessel. This is a greater risk than engine damage.

Since the engine used for propulsion would usually be bigger the sudden stop would generate greater thermal stress which may damage the engine.

The vessel could continue to operate and manoeuvre without any electrical power at all as long as the main engine is still running.

After completing the tasks they have been busy with the engineer and rating leave the engine room which is returned to UMS mode. The rating realises that an oil tank filling valve has been left open. What action should be taken?

Inform another crewmember that he is going back into the engine room to close the valve.

Inform the duty engineer immediately so that the engine room can be re-entered and the valve can be shut.

Just leave the valve open as it is unsafe to enter the engine room alone. The high alarm will sound to notify the engineer when the tank is full.

Re-enter the engine room straight away and shut the valve.
