AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) All of the above. According to Coast Guard regulations, all of the listed operations aboard a tanker must be recorded in the Oil Record Book on a tank-to-tank basis. This includes the discharge overboard of any bilge water, the loading or unloading of any or all oil cargo, and any internal transfer of oil cargo during a voyage. These requirements are in place to ensure accurate record-keeping and monitoring of oil-related activities on tankers, as mandated by international and domestic regulations. The other options are incorrect because they do not encompass the full scope of operations that must be recorded in the Oil Record Book as per the Coast Guard's regulations.
