Question 1269 Deck General

The correct answer is B) tank drop. A tank drop refers to the piping that routes an oil cargo from the manifold directly to a single cargo tank, serving only that one tank. This is the most direct and efficient way to fill a specific cargo tank, as opposed to routing the cargo through a series of branching lines to reach multiple tanks. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) a filler line refers to the piping that connects the cargo tank to the vent system, not the manifold; C) a branch line would be used to distribute cargo to multiple tanks, not just one; and D) cargo fill is a more general term that does not specify the direct piping configuration between the manifold and a single tank.
