The ship has a right-handed propeller and is swinging to starboard when the engines are slow ahead and the rudder is to starboard. The engines are stopped and the rate of swing rapidly slows down. How could the swing to starboard be maintained without the ship making much headway.
Transverse Thrust will reduce the swing and therefore a kick ahead is necessary with full starboard helm applied.
Astern on the engines will allow Transverse Thrust to continue the swing.
The only effective method is by using the bow thruster to push the bow to starboard.
By applying the rudder hard over to starboard and going ahead on the engines.

The one particular hazard to be taken care against, when using portable steam driven blowers for ventilating oil cargo tanks is:
That plastic extension tubes should not be used, in case the top collar overheats and melts, causing the tube to drop into the tank.
