Question 2893 Deck General
70% to passThe shipping papers for the products being carried in your tankship are NOT required to contain the _______________.
The correct answer is B) exact quantity of the cargoes. The shipping papers for products carried on a tankship are required to contain the name of the consignee(s), grades of the cargoes, and location of the delivery point(s), but they do not need to specify the exact quantity of the cargoes. The regulations only require the shipping papers to provide a general description of the cargo, not the precise amount. The other options are incorrect because the name of the consignee(s), grades of the cargoes, and location of the delivery point(s) are all information that must be included on the shipping papers per the applicable regulations.
