Question 2612 Deck General

The correct answer is D) usual operating station of the person-in-charge. The U.S. regulations require that the emergency means of stopping the flow of oil during oil transfer operations must be operable from the usual operating station of the person-in-charge. This is to ensure that the person responsible for overseeing the oil transfer can quickly and easily activate the emergency shutdown system from their primary work location. The other options, such as the engine room or bridge, would not be the ideal location for the emergency controls, as the person-in-charge may not always be present in those areas during the transfer operations.
