Question 4616 Deck General
70% to passThe DEEP DRILLER, loaded as shown in Sample Load Form #5 (Survival), suffers major damage which results in flooding in tank C1P. Your best countermeasure is to pump from _______________.
A
C2P
B
1P
C
C1P
D
3P
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 3P. In the event of flooding in tank C1P, the best countermeasure is to pump from 3P. This is because 3P is the adjacent, empty tank, and pumping from this tank will help to counter the flooding in C1P and maintain the vessel's stability. The other options are incorrect because: A) C2P is not the adjacent, empty tank to C1P. B) 1P is not the adjacent, empty tank to C1P. C) Pumping from C1P itself would not be an effective countermeasure, as it is the tank that is already flooded.
