AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Cargo Oil Transfer Pump No.1. The cargo oil transfer pump is typically provided with a remote push button station to allow the pump to be started and stopped from a location away from the pump itself. This is a safety feature that allows the operator to monitor and control the cargo transfer process from a safe distance. The other options, such as the sewage treatment plant, lube oil service pump, and seawater cooling circulation pump, do not typically require remote push button stations, as they are not directly involved in the cargo transfer process where remote control is necessary for safety.
